Adding a checklist as a section action in Zoho Connect's boards.

Overview

Automate recurring steps for the tasks within the section of your board by configuring section actions. Users can apply a set of actions, like assigning tasks to specific members, setting the due date or priority level to the tasks added to a section. Once these are configured, it will be automatically applied to all new tasks added to this section. They can also choose to apply these settings to the existing tasks in the section.

Who can add a checklist as a section action?

The admin(s) for the board can add a checklist while configuring section actions. Also, members who have permission to create a section within a board can add a checklist while setting up the actions for the sections they've created.
