Add Tag to Task

Events your agent can react to
Attachment Added to Task
Triggers when an attachment is added to a task.
New Comment on Task
Triggers when a comment is added to a task in a project.
New Task Created
Triggers when a new task is created in a project.
Task Moved to Section
Triggers when a task is moved to a section in a project.
Tag Added to Task

Task Updated
Triggers when a task is updated in a project.
