I am trying to get the current Card URL from my Powerup iframe JS code, but I get "undefined" when calling t.card().url
Please can you check what is wrong with my code? Thanks

 ADDENDUM: I would want just to get top.location.href to retrieve the current URL, but it fails since the powerup iframe is from another domain, so the browser won't let me access top.location.href (cross-origin policies)

Hey Tomer,

Good day to you :)

The t.card() function in the Trello Power-Up client library returns a Promise that resolves to an object containing data about the card. This object includes various data fields, but the card's URL is not one of them.

However, you can construct the URL of the card using the card's id and the id of the board it is on. You can obtain these with the t.card('id', 'idBoard') call.

Regarding your addendum, you're correct that you can't use top.location.href due to cross-origin policies. The Power-Up runs in an iframe on a different domain from Trello, so it doesn't have access to the top-level window's location.

For a question like this and a potential workaround ( Scripts related), Trello's Developer Community is really your best bet: https://community.developer.atlassian.com/c/trello/42

Do let me know if you've more questions. I'd be happy to help.

Cheers,
Vishaal S | The Trello Team
