Sorry, I still don't understand what you are trying to do.

but in the area of to Do this I don't have any option to do what I want

And that is?

Please share the complete scenario you are trying to do to understand the workflow needed to make it work in Notion or to know if it is not possible.

You want something to happen when it is set to yes, ok, but what is that something you want to happen or do?

When I am picking yes, as I attached in the SS I want to have new property with option to write.

I am a Biz Dev in marketing company, the question for yes or no is if there is any relation to conference to the lead.
If I am picking yes I want to have the option to write from which conference and more.

I hope that it's clear, thank you.

Thank you for explaining.

As far as I understand, if the tag is yes, then the automation has to go to other database and select the correct related conference and then add it to that conference property.

It is not possible to add database relations like that using Notion automations.

If you already have a relation to a conference, why not use that property instead?

You do not even need a tag property to change it to Yes or No, just create a new relation property for the conference and relate them as needed, if there is something related it appears, if not, then not.

Otherwise you will have to go with formulas and create a formula to show relations if the selector is set to Yes, otherwise show something else or nothing.
