Find or lookup cards in other boards based on a custom field value

Question

To give context -

if I have a board, with a card, with a customfield called 'Deal Ref' and a value of 101, I want to be able to search for that value of 101 in another board and link the cards.

I could do this if the value was embedded in the cards title, but I want to do it at the custom field level, preferably looking for the value in a known custom field on another board.

I cannot find a way to do this.. Anyone think they can?

Apps on Deta Space runs on your personal cloud including the apps data including your credentials.

Yes, I would be equally careful about sharing my api key and token.

Thanks - it's unlikely that we can use your app but appreciate you reaching out.

Hi and thanks.. Yes, I can't really see being able to do this other than API. Unfortunately we have quite a rigorous app/power-up acceptance process (mainly around understanding the security of where data manipulated in Trello is stored at any given point).

Thanks for reaching out though.
