Frequently asked questions
What about cards with no assignee?
Route unassigned but due-soon cards to the board owner or a Slack channel so they still get picked up.
Can I remind multiple times?
Add extra schedule branches for different lead times, e.g. 3 days and 1 day before, tagging the message accordingly.
