Trello

Introduction

Trello is a web-based, Kanban-style, list-making application. Trello is the visual tool that empowers your team to manage any type of project, workflow, or task tracking. Add files, checklists, or even automation: Customize it for how your team works best.

It allows users to create boards, lists, and cards to represent tasks and workflows, and then move them through different stages as they are completed. Trello is known for its user-friendly interface, customizable features, and integrations with other tools and services.

You can find more details and the supported operation on Trello | qibb Catalog.

How to get started with Trello integration

Before you get started using Trello integration please make sure that you have the needed permission for the operations. You would need an API Key and an access token for authentication. You can have a look at Trello Authorizing With Trello's REST API for more information.

  1. You need to create a Power-Up to have an API Key.

  2. After logging in, go to Power-Ups and Integrations page and create a new Power-Up.

  3. Fill in the required fields for your Power-Up (name, workspace, email address and author) and click on the Create button. You can leave the Iframe connector URL field empty.

  4. Once the power up is created, the page is redirected to the API Key page. Click on the Generate a new API key button.

  5. After the API key is generated, you need to grant access to the Power-Up. Click on the Token link located on the right side of the page next to the API key field.

  6. Click the Allow button at the bottom of the page to grant access to the Power-Up.

  7. Click the Copy to clipboard button to copy the token. You should store token and the API Key generated in the previous step in a safe place so that you can use it later in the flow.

  8. Go to qibb Workflow Editor, open Node Catalog in the right sidebar, and install Trello node by clicking on the + button.

  9. Drag Trello API and Trello Auth nodes from the left sidebar and place them in your flow.

  10. Enter your API Key and token in relevant field of the Trello Auth node. After completing this step you are ready to build new flows. According to type of operation you will need to provide some extra information, such as project ID, board ID etc.

Importing flow examples of a node

Once you've successfully installed a node from the qibb catalog, you can easily import example flows that showcase how the nodes can be used. These example flows are directly accessible within the Flow Editor and are designed to guide users with helpful hints, including how to configure mandatory parameters and credentials.

Here's how to import examples:

  1. In the top right corner of the Flow Editor, click on the menu icon.

  2. Select Import to open the Import Dialog.

  3. Click on the Examples tab.

  4. Choose an example from the list.

  5. Confirm your selection by clicking on the Import button.

By following these steps, you are now ready to make basic API calls using the provided examples. For further exploration of what’s possible, you can find more complex examples in the Flow Catalog.
