Trello Automation for Archiving and Resetting Completed Cards

jrudin October 22, 2025

On my Trello Board I have two lists: "Incomplete" and "Complete" with cards containing checklists that are moved between the two.

When the checklist in a card is completed, the card is moved into the "Complete" list and a new "Due Date" is set 6-months into the future. (This is done by-hand, by the user.)  

When the "Due Date" hits, I have automation set up to reset the checklist in the card and move it back into the "Incomplete" list. 

I would like for copy of that completed card to be saved in the archives /before/ the card gets cleared and moved back into the "Incomplete" list. 

I would also like a PDF of the archived card emailed to a distro email address. 

Is there a way that I can accomplish both of these tasks using any of the automation tools or power ups? 

Thanks!

You can copy the card as soon as it is added to the "complete list" so that the copy is saved in your archive (or save to another board where you store all your completed work).

There are a bunch of power-ups that can generate the pdf https://trello.com/power-ups/search?q=pdf
