trello comments to slack

[Arjan de Korte]

Is this possible; When someone adds a comment (activity section) to a trello card to also have this comment send to a slack channel?

Well I figured it out.

I found a helpfull youtube vid about this.

1. For when you're added as a member to a card use this: You were added to this card "{triggercardname}" - {triggercardlink} by {username}

2. For when you're tagged in a comment, use this: {username} mentioned you in a comment on the card "{triggercardname}" - {triggercardlink}. \nThe comment was "{commenttext} " \nComment link - {commentlink}

3. For when you're mentioned in the card description, use this: {username} mentioned you in the Description on the card "{triggercardname}" - {triggercardlink}. \nThe mention was "{carddescription}"

It would have been really helpful if all of these "{ }" were listed somewhere. 

This took why longer to figure out than necessary.

Yes that is possible. The Slack Power-Up sends events in Trello as messages to a Slack channel. You can set which boards the Power-Up is active on and which events send a message. Messages are sent by actions on boards, lists, cards, and checklists.

In Slack you can install the Trello-app which makes it possible to create and manipulate cards in Trello.

Hi Ton,

Thank you for your reply.

is the power up called "send events"? because I do not see a power up with that name.

I have the app and a premium account.

Can you provide me with some more info about this?

Hi Content Exposar,

the Power-Up is just called Slack and it is an official Trello Power-Up as you can see in the screenprint.

Hope this helps.

Hi Ton,

Thanks for this.

I know who to add {cardname} so the card name will appear in a slack message. 

But I still do not know how to add a rule or something similar to send it to a slack channel.

So how do I send the comment from a trello card to slack?
