Sanjeev Mansotra - New to Trello | Query on Steps for Integration

Sanjeev Mansotra

Hello to the community people, my name is Sanjeev Mansotra. I'm new to Trello and facing some sort of query. Can anyone help?

How can I automate task dependencies across multiple Trello boards using Butler automation and webhooks, ensuring that when a task on one board is marked as complete, the related task on a separate board automatically progresses to the next stage? Additionally, how can I integrate third-party services like Slack or Google Sheets to notify team members and update related data when these dependencies trigger?

Waiting for your response!

@Sanjeev Mansotra it completely depends how you have your boards set up and how you relate the cards together. 

What i'd recommend is having the cards linked together (which you can do through automation, or just manually add a link to the related card when you make a duplicate).

And then for the updates, you'll create an automation that watches for whatever the "complete" trigger is on one board (ie, when a card is moved to list "done"), and then use the Cascade actions to find the first card linked in the attachments and then choose the move action to move that card to another stage or list. You could also add an action that then posts a slack message in a channel or sends a DM. 

You might find Automation Variables helpful here as well.

As far as Google Sheets, you'll likely need to use something like Zapier to set up an automation between Trello and Google Sheets.
