Representative actions

  • Add board

    Creates a new Trello board; the 'name' parameter is required for creation, and various preferences can be customized or cloned from a source board.

  • Add new list to board (Deprecated)

    DEPRECATED: Use TRELLO_LIST_CREATE_LIST instead. Creates a new, empty list on a specified, existing Trello board, typically used as a column or category for organizing cards.

  • Add card

    Creates a new card in a Trello list. Only `idList` is required; `idBoard` is optional as the API determines the board from the list.

  • Add comment to card

    Adds a new text comment, which can include @mentions, to a Trello card specified by its ID; file attachments are not supported via this action.

  • Add attachment to card

    Adds an attachment to a Trello card by `idCard`; specify either a `file` to upload or a `url` to link, but not both.

Representative triggers

  • Card Archived Trigger

    Triggered when a card is archived in the specified board

  • New Activity Trigger

    Triggered when there is activity in Trello.

  • New Board Trigger

    Triggered when a board is created in the specified workspace
