An approval task of a change, as well as any project task, can be assigned to multiple people. For each approver or assignee, a small record is linked to the task. Such records contain information like the planned effort and status for an assignee.
To make it possible for automated actions to be executed when one of these small records is updated, the webhookย events task.update and project_task.update now also trigger when one of these approval or assignment records is updated, added or removed.

In addition, for automation rules the โ€˜On status updateโ€™ trigger has been extended so that it also fires when the status of one of these approvals or assignments has changed or is added (i.e. when the status changed from nil to the status of the task). This trigger does not fire when an approval or assignment is removed.
