merging two trello accounts

Jason Etters

I have a work trello account and a personal trello account.  I am changing employers and my work email is going to change and I won't have access too it anymore.  I need to move all of my trello boards over to my personal account.  it won't let me change the email address of my work account because it says you already have an Atlassian account with that email. I don't want to just copy them over to my personal account, I want to remove them from one account and put them on the personal account. 

 

Thank you, please let me know how I can do this.

Hi @Jason Etters ,

You cannot change your work account's email to your personal email because it's already tied to your personal Atlassian account — this is expected behavior.

Trello doesn't support merging two accounts into one. However, there are a few ways to consolidate your boards onto your personal account before you lose access to your work email:

1. Transfer board admin to your personal account (easiest)

• From your work account, add your personal account as an Admin on each board you want to keep. Then, from your personal account, you'll have full control over those boards, including managing members, settings, and content.
• More details: https://support.atlassian.com/trello/docs/changing-permissions-on-a-board/

2. Transfer Workspace ownership (if applicable)

• If your work account owns a Trello Workspace, you'll also want to transfer Workspace admin to your personal account.

You can take a look at this document from Trello for more details about Merging and splitting multiple Trello accounts

Hope this helps 🙌
