Import tasks from MS Teams into my personal Trello?

Linda Broström March 4, 2019

Hi!

I use Trello for work (and private too). At work we use MS Teams. Now I wonder: can I make tasks in Teams tasks in Trello (i.e. send them to a board, just like I can forward an e-mail to a board in Trello)?

I am not sure that I explain this well, but I just want to keep on using Trello myself, for my personal use. We will not start using it at work. But I want to export my Todo:s from MS Teams to my personal Trello, that's all. 

Is this possible? 

Thank you so much in advance! 

/Linda

(I know it's possible to use Trello in Teams, that's not what I am after.)

Hello,
Thanks for your request.

You can use Bot in your personal trello tab - you are able to create cards ( it's a good way to export your ToDos to Trello), to view cards assigned to you, add a comment to a card and some other features.
In order to add new personal Tab, please follow the next steps:
1. Click "..." in the left side menu pane and select "Go to store":

2. Choose Trello from the list or search for it in the Search Field:

3. Update suggested settings if needed and click "Install".
4. You will be asked to choose the features that you wants to use:

5. After that you have access to:
-Conversation: user can communicate with Trello bot
-Cards assigned to you: all Cards assigned to a user (where user was added
-Cards Calendar: shows all due dates on user's cards
-Recent Boards: shows recently opened/reviewed boards
-All Boards: shows all Boards user is watching
-Help: short description of Trello and MS Teams integration
-About.

Please, let us know whether you have any other questions.

Let me know if this helps.

Thank you!

As I understand it from the other question, the answer is that there is no easy way to import tasks from MS Teams to Trello? So, there's no way to e-mail them to Trello, like I can forward regular e-mails to a board etc? (I had so much hoped there would be an easy way!!)

Cheers, 

Linda

I did see this article, but I am not sure if you can change the settings so that only you can see your Trello, and not other members of your team:

Thank you, but I don't think that would do the trick. I work in many different projects (with different "Teams") and my need is to export all my to do:s from the different teams into Trello. Or any other tool really, I'm willing to change, since this is crucial to me. 

But thank you so much!
