Is there a Column Formula I can use to always assign tasks to myself?
I'm trying to sync up my personal task list along with client task lists to all flow into one report, which means I need to assign everything in my personal task list to me in an Owner column. Is there a way I can automate that with a Column Formula?

I hope you're well and safe!
Try something like this. (change to your email address)
=IF([Task Name]@row <> ""; "andree@workbold.com"; "")
Did that work/help?
I hope that helps!
Be safe and have a fantastic week!

Screenshot attached. @Andrée Starå - the formula came up as unparseable unfortunately, though I may not have it totally correct.

Try this one.
=IF(Item@row <> ""; "andree@workbold.com"; "")
or this one.
=IF(Item@row <> "", "andree@workbold.com", "")
Did one of the work? Where are you located?

@Andrée Starå - the final option works as a formula but it only inputs my email and doesn't count it as assigned to me.
