Trello
Trello connects with a key and token pair. Flipper reads the cards on your open boards, the list each card sits in, and the comments on them.
- 1Get an API key
Go to trello.com/power-ups/admin. If you have no Power-Up yet, create one with minimal details, then open it and generate a key on the API key tab. The old
trello.com/app-keypage now redirects here. - 2Generate a token
On the same page, click the Token link beside the key and approve. The key is public by design; the token is the secret.
- 3Paste both into Flipper
Connectors → Trello → connect. Both are stored encrypted.
Why the list matters
A card's list is its status. “Ship billing v2” in Backlog and the same card in Done mean opposite things, so Flipper resolves list names per board and stores them alongside the card — otherwise every card would read as equally current forever.
Cards and comments are separate episodes
A comment becomes its own episode rather than being folded into the card. Card text changes every time somebody drags it, and folding comments in would re-version the whole card on each move; keeping them apart also means a decision recorded in a comment keeps its own author and timestamp.
