Add assignee from a trigger collection

[marisa]

Hi, was wondering if anyone has a workaround for assigning a user in a workflow from a trigger user collection? In the screenshot I want to make the assignee the only user in the “specialists available” user collection.

I am using Airtable so am wondering if a formula, lookup or rollup will help to select just one linked record?

I’d like to avoid creating a duplicate linked record field with a limit of one if possible but will if needed.

Hi @marisa - it looks like you have two options:

1. Change the “Specialists available” field to be limited to one specialist. You’ve said you don’t want to do that.

2. If you know that that field will only ever have 1 linked record in it, then you could use a “For each…” action to loop over each “specialist available” and then create a record for each… assuming there’s only one then this will have the same affect as what you’re hoping to achieve

Thanks @darragh, option 2 is perfect!
