I need to know if there is any way I can see the history of the description on a card. The description got delete.
Hi!
Trello keeps previous card description changes in the background data, even though it is not visible in the standard web UI.
You can recover the text using this technical workaround:
1. Open the card with the missing description.
2. Get the Card ID. It is the 8-character string in the URL after "/c/".
3. Open a new browser tab and paste this URL, replacing [CARD_ID] with your actual ID:
https://trello.com/1/cards/[CARD_ID]/actions?filter=updateCard:desc
4. Search the page (Ctrl+F or Cmd+F) for the exact string: "old":{"desc"
5. The text immediately following that string will be your previous description. You can copy and paste it back into your card.
To automatically track changes in the future, you can use the Board Assistant (https://trello.com/power-ups/685016dd47b5654ae385bba6). It logs card changes directly into the card comments.
