Guide: Using Trello with Databox (Third-Party Integration)

Trello can be connected with Databox using our custom API integrations or our third-party integrations. In this article, we’ll explain how to use a third-party integration to sync Trello data. 

You can use third-party integrations such as Zapier, Integromat, or the Databox API to sync Trello data. 

Pro Tip: If you don't have the time or resources to set this up yourself, check out our services, where we can build the custom integration for you. For additional information, feel free to connect with our team via chat or email us at help@databox.com.

HOW TO

How to use Zapier to sync Trello data

Zapier is a trigger-based app, meaning you can have certain events (such as a new card being added) trigger certain actions (updating the relevant data and syncing with Databox) using Zaps. Because triggers initiate data syncs, historical data will not be available for metrics that are synced using Zapier. 

Learn more about the Zapier + Databox third-party integration here.

Whenever possible, it’s recommended that you use a Zap Template. This will save you time and will streamline the process of syncing Trello data with Databox using Zapier. 

You can also create Zaps from scratch if a Zap Template isn’t available.

Creating Zaps from scratch for Trello Metrics

The following Trello Metrics can also be synced with Databox by creating a Zap from scratch: 

  • New Card
    (triggered when a new card is added)
  • New Activity
    (triggered when a new activity is added)
  • New Board
    (triggered when a new board is added)
  • New List
    (triggered when a new list on board is added)
  • Card Archived
    (triggered when a card is archived)
  • New Comment in Card
    (triggered when a comment is added to a card)
  • New Checklist
    (triggered when a new checklist is created)

How to use Integromat to sync Trello data

Integromat is a third-party integration that allows you to sync data between apps. Integromat has a long list of native integrations along with the ability to sync custom data via the API.

Whenever possible, it’s recommended that you use an Integromat Template. This will save you time and will streamline the process of syncing Trello data with Databox using Integromat. 

If a Template isn’t available, you can sync additional Trello with Databox using Integromat by setting it up from scratch.

Syncing additional Trello Metrics using Integromat

The following Trello Metrics can also be synced with Databox by setting up the connection from scratch:

  • Watch Boards
    (triggered when a new board is added)
  • Watch Cards
    (triggered when a new card is added)
  • Watch Activities
    (triggered when new activity occurs)
  • Watch Comments
    (triggered when a new comment is added)

Use the Databox API to sync Trello data

If you’re comfortable using scripting languages or you have developer resources available, you can build your own custom integration and push Trello data via the Databox API.
