Remove from list Automation

For a workaround, I use a webhook to call a make.com automation to "remove from list" when my trigger applies. Use the 'Make an API Call' Module and use syntax attached. The ids in blue will be the location and id of the task you're looking to remove.

Totally hear you all on this - it's a big gap that you can add to a list with Automations but not remove. We're tracking this feedback and it's on our radar for future improvements. Thanks for calling it out and helping us make Automations better!

Zach This would be an important addition especially to remove mistakes we made that triggered some automations.
Thank You for your hard work.

Zach in addition to the feature gap with removing tasks from lists, there's also a longstanding bug when using an automation to move tasks from one list to another.
For instance: if I have a task that lives in List A, and I add it to List B as well, then I trigger an automation that's supposed to move the task from List B to List C, the automation will instead move the base task from List A to List C, leaving the instance of the task in List B were it is.
This bug made a mess out of my lists when I first discovered it. I've been anxiously waiting years now for it to be fixed. Until it is, most of my automations are useless.

Yes, this is causing us a lot for problem as there are automations to add to list but none to remove from list if some mistake is made.

I use the 'add to list' when I assign a user, but I have to MANUALLY remove the assignee and remove the list there were assigned to... It's causing my team members individual workspaces to be cluttered with a bunch of project tasks they were part of but have now done their part. Please add this!!! It makes no sense that you have the 'add to list' but not 'remove from list' automation :( It's like a half baked cake...

Our team really really needs this feature. I can see so many similar upvotes here which clearly means I am not the only one looking for this functionality and its so so simple. We already have Add to List automation, but we should also have Remove from List automation for this whole cycle to function properly. Please look into this.

Please do it

Here because I am trying to do this. I want the task to be removed from the added list when I move it to a certain status. Please make this happen.

Please prioritize this feature request. You would be saving countless hours we have all wasted manually removing tasks from lists.
