Github Action that schedules an item in Projects V2

• You can configure on which day an item in ProjectV2 becomes a TODO.
• Just set the state of the item to Scheduled and set a schedule date in Schedule field.
• Set up a scheduler github action that will monitor your project and deschedule items (move them to TODO) on a specified date.

1. Create a project V2
2. Add a new field named Schedule to the project. Set it's type to Date
3. Edit the field State and add a new option called Scheduled
4. Create a scheduler repository and add a new Github Action workflow as follows:

   on:
     schedule:
       - cron: "30 5 * * *" # Every day at 5:30
   
   jobs:
     project-items-scheduler:
       runs-on: ubuntu-latest
       steps:
         - uses: jblew/projectsV2-scheduler@v1
           with:
             token: "${{ secrets.GH_PAT }}"
             project: users/{username}/projects/{project_number}
             schedule-state-name: Scheduled
             schedule-field-name: Schedule

5. Generate a Personal Access Token (PAT) with full project scope. Add the token as a secret to scheduler repository.

Voila!
