Gmail integration functionality

[Camilo Fontecilla]

Hello– New to Trello and am trying to figure out how to fully take advantage of gmail integration.

– Is it possible to add a new email to an existing Card? And if not, is there a way to 'blend' two tasks in Trello if they relate to the same project?

– Once a Card is created, will subsequent emails in the same thread update themselves in Trello?

– I see a dropdown to choose between my boards, but only one of my two boards is appearing there. I've refreshed, restarted etc. but to no avail

So unless I'm missing something, the integration is incredibly minimal – all you can do is add a task with a deadline. Is there a better tool with better integration, or am I stuck with this?

Thanks!

Hi @Camilo Fontecilla 👋 Welcome to the community!

Christl from SendBoard here - makers of the Email for Trello Power-Up. I think you might be interested in our Power-Up.

Essentially our Power-Up allows you to integrate your email with Trello, enabling you to send and receive emails from your board (while incorporating all the Trello perks and features).

A few features you might find useful based on your query:

• It's possible to merge cards with our Power-Up.
• You can set your own custom email address.
• Replies to your emails automatically attach to the correct cards.
• You can send emails to existing Trello cards.
• You can add the Power-Up to multiple boards in your workspace, allowing you to create multiple 'mailboxes' e.g., help@, sales@, accounts@.
• Email automation (super useful to automate your workflow).

You're welcome to pop over any questions to hello@sendboard.com or simply add the PowerUp to give it a try with the free trial.

Hope that helps!
