I have generated an email from one system into trello and the email is creating a description in the card.  The description contains multiple links and each link I would like to turn into separate cards.  Any suggestions on how I can parse the description and convert it into cards or a checklist using automation would be greatly appreciated.  Here is how the description is coming through in Trello:

[NAME OF LINK](URL)

What I am looking to do is have a new card automatically created and so I would end up with two cards if the description looked as it does above.  Thank you to all who offer help!
