Trello Attachment Component

Trello Attachment Component connects your flow to your Trello account to work with a card’s attachments: add a link as an attachment, see all the card’s attachments, or delete one.

It is useful to keep everything related to a task on its card, for example the link to a quote that was just generated or to a document a customer sent.

When to use it

  • A flow generates a quote and you want to leave its link on the customer’s card.
  • A customer shares a document and you want to attach the link to the case’s card.
  • You want to check which attachments a card has before closing it.
  • A link becomes outdated and you want to remove it from the card.

Configuration

You need a Trello Task API credential with your Trello account’s token and API key. See Credentials.

FieldWhat it does
Credential (required)The Trello Task API credential used to access your account.
OperationWhat the component does. See Operations. Default: Create.
Card ID (required)The card’s ID.
Attachment ID (required)The attachment’s ID. Used in Read and Delete.
Attachment Name (required)The name the attachment shows on the card. Used in Create.
Attachment Url (required)The web address to attach. Used in Create.

Operations

OperationWhat it does
CreateAttaches the given link to the card with the chosen name.
ReadReturns one attachment of the card.
Read AllReturns all the card’s attachments.
DeleteDeletes an attachment from the card.

Output

The Data output returns the attachment you worked with as Trello stores it: its ID, name and address, among other details. With Read All you get one item per attachment. Delete returns a confirmation.

The component can also be connected to an Agent as a tool. See Tool Mode.

Example

A consultancy creates its quotes in a shared document and wants them at hand in Trello.

  1. The flow generates the quote and gets its link.
  2. Add Trello Attachment Component with the Create operation.
  3. In Card ID enter the ID of the customer’s card, in Attachment Name Quote and in Attachment Url the document’s link.

Good practices

  • This component attaches links. The file is not copied to Trello: if the link stops working, so does the attachment.
