Copy card to another board and create a link

Question

I'm looking to create a link between 2 cards on 2 different boards when I copy them.  I know I can use butler to do this by creating a rule to copying a card to another board and link it, but that involves knowing ahead of time what board and list you want it to go to.  I also know I can manually copy a card to another board but I don't see a way to also link it - is there a way to link back to the original card as well?

Yes, if possible.  It would totally work if Trello added the share function for a card as it does for a board.  That’s exactly what I need.  (I use Apple products) Then it would automatically link back to the original source.  No rules necessary  👍🏻

@Kim Cramer I was about to suggest using webhook and watch for idModel = board_id but I remembered you want to do it for any board which means many such webhooks - which is pretty much equivalent to inserting the Butler commands on every board.

Presumably, it also for any user?

No, as I mentioned above I know I can do that.  I was trying to see if there was another option without using butler but still getting cards to link together.

thank you though 👍🏻
