Cascade actions

I assume you’re reading this book because you want to deep dive into all things Trello. But there’s a ton of value in the automation we’ve talked about already (and will continue discovering), so even if you never touch this section, you can still build really powerful automation in your boards.

So just pause, reflect on what you’ve learned, and grab another cup of coffee (or a nice bourbon if you're head is spinning already!). You don’t have to remember all of this. Just take the next few minutes to absorb and see all that’s possible within the world of Trello automation. And if you want to skip this and come back later, I’ll be here!

When you click the Cascade section, the first thing you see is a very useful callout that explains why you might use this section of actions.
