Trigger: Team Reminder Due

The Team Reminder Due trigger fires a workflow the exact moment a reminder a user set on a Team message comes due.

When to use it

Team reminders notify inside the app, but if you need to make sure the person sees it even without an open session, this trigger lets you push that alert through another channel: a WhatsApp message, an email, or even creating a board task.

Configuration

This trigger has no configurable filters — any due reminder from any user in the workspace fires it. If you need to scope it to a specific user, add a condition afterwards using $trigger.user_id.

Available variables

• $trigger.reminder_id
• $trigger.user_id (reminder owner)
• $trigger.message_id (the reminded message)
• $trigger.note (note the user wrote)
• $trigger.due_at (due date/time)

Example

Workflow "Reinforced reminder": Trigger = Team Reminder Due. Action: send an email to $trigger.user_id with subject "Reminder: {{$trigger.note}}" and a direct link to the original message.

Tips

• Use $trigger.note to give the alert real context — often it's the only thing distinguishing one reminder from another.
• If the notification destination depends on the user, resolve their email or phone first with a "Look up user" action before sending.

Troubleshooting

If you don't see it fire, check that the reminder has actually come due (the configured date already passed) and that the workflow is active, not sitting in draft mode.
