Add "changes in" conditions in "when a record matches a condition" trigger

in "when a record matches a condition" trigger only some fields type support the "changes" condition (like the Assigned person changes from any to any). This is a limitation in the automations that can be made.
For example I wanted to do an automation that triggers only when some fields change (status, assigend person, due date ecc) and then sends a webhook request to make.com. But I can't do that because due date or asisged person don't have the "changes from any to any" condition for some reason.

Any update on this one? I have a start date field and need to be able to trigger an email and notify people when this changes

Thank you for posting, Patrizia Buosi! I have a few more questions for you:
- What specific fields would you like to have the 'changes from any to any' condition available for?
- Can you describe a specific use case where this feature would be beneficial?
- Are there any other conditions or triggers you think would enhance the automation process?

When a Record is Updated: Allow "Changes" for all field types

I would like to be able to create an automation that would trigger based on any specific field changing.
An example use case would be when I don't want to create tasks for a project until a due date is decided. In this case I currently use "When a record matches a condition where [Due Date] is not empty, Create tasks XYZ". This automation causes new tasks to be created every time the record is updated instead of being able to use the condition "where [Due Date] changes from empty to not empty" which would only ever trigger once.
