Trello Automation: 9 Workflows You Can Use Right Now

[@rogierd7408]

How this only has 725 likes, is beyond my understanding. Hands down THE best Trello video I have seen. Most creators circle in the basic stuff, with examples that work for their specific usecase. This gives actual tools, and indepth. Thank you!

[@cliffrusselliv7642]

I agree. I look for other videos, but always end up back here because these are the best!

[@SeanKearney]

Wow! The automations are powerful but your thinking behind them is even more so!

[@ActiveGrowth]

Thank you, Sean!

[@scoogsy]

So basically every automation discussed is universally applicable. Awesome.

[@Batavijf]

This is how you get the most out of Trello. Workflow automation is key. Thanks so much for these kind of videos!

[@sergemo4607]

Forget about a lot of garbage we see on KZbin about Trello; your video is Wow Amaaaazing! Now I am going to like and subscribe and probably check out all your other videos. Thanks a lot.

That Stage based automation is a game-changer for me.

I started using trello for my personal use, I love the tips you shared; most things have started to fall in place! thank you for this tutorial!

[@gwyntravel8136]

This tutorial is exactly what I needed. I like that you speak so clearly without all the "ums and ahs" that most do. I subscribed and am going to tell my friends.

[@xeen17]

I really love the bit about keeping the board clean. This is where I've become overwhelmed with Trello in the past. It's good to know the solution to that problem.

[@tisha.klemetz]

Excellent! I was using Trello only for follow-up of my contacts, and for online publishing. I didn't think of using it for my "to do" list and daily tasks. The daily checklist feature is awesome! Thank you!!!!

[@farukh_rationalist]

Thanks Shane! Watched all of your Trello videos over last weekend & your Trello Tutorials playlist is the best thing to learn more about Trello, from basics to task automation. Your guide & Simpletivity by Scott are the best place to enhance & improve the Trello experience. Keep making more Trello related videos in future.

Thank you very much! I'm happy you found the videos useful!

This is a very useful and practical content but at the same time it does not have the views and the likes it deserves. It seems an empirical rule: it happens that great contents are not easily retrievable with standard metrics such as views count. Kudos again!

Checklist template is very helpful. Thanks.

[@youssoufahmed1788]

Thank you so much! I have 3 questions: my work involves the same steps with revenue cycle management and submitting medical claims. Question #1 Is it possible to set up an automation for creating a new list that is customizable. For example lets say the standard check list states "call family to review insurance. coverage" , "request life insurance verification" "Request Pension verification" "Request bank statements".... however, once I know the location of the institutions, I need the checklist to show "request life insurance verification - PRUDENTIAL" "Request Pension verification -TIAA" "Request bank statements - Bank of America".... I don't want to retype the checklist, but I also need to add more information. Question #2: Once I set a label on a card, lets call it "Clinical Evaluation" is it possible to copy the card onto a new Kanban board specifically for the three steps in the clinical evaluation process? Ideally, I want to go to the clinical eval board move all cards to done as I work on them, then have them appear in done on my master board when completed. Question #3: is it possible to get a weekly summary of tasks I completed and tasks that are in todo or in progress emailed to me so I can share with my team members who are not using trello?

[@momessori]

[@AmandaLucaseu]

Another great video, thanks Shane. I built one recently where I was able to use the card link for my checklist templates in one board to apply across other client boards. Works well.

[@martinhughes6161]

Thank you, very useful and I have applied these tips. What is the application you use to make your KZbin and Thrive Themes videos, please?

[@christineleary1688]

This is fantastic!!! I have lost my team at this point but working on getting a solid, streamlined process in place for the next team member to be more successful with and the check list template card and ability to move cards throughout the workflow upon step completion will be game changers for me! Thanks so much for this!!!!

[@brighteduworld7408]

Thanks for wonderful video. Please guide me on how to do following automation: When a particular item (say, video folder given to video editor) is completed in the checklist, a new card which is copy of the card where the item was marked completed, should get created in new list or new board.

[@BollywoodMusicalGaRe]

Thanks dude for this amazing explanation ! Great job

[@calladdicts1733]

We use Trello with Crmble powerup for CRM purposes. How can we set it up so that every new lead card that is generated automatically creates our follow up check list? Right now we have to keep going in to each new lead imported, or that comes in from booking a call on calendly and adding the followup checklist to the card. Thanks!

[@at-easetv608]

Excellent information presented in a clear and easy to follow manner. Thank you!! Have subscribed and will be looking at all your videos. This was helpful for a client who has a lot of incoming calls and creating some automated workflows will definitely reduce the amount of interruptions in the office!

[@3984204]

Great tutorial! Question, is it possible to set due dates for checklist items relative to the card’s due date or custom field due date? E.g. have checklist item abc due 3 weeks before card due date, have item xyz due 1 day after card due date…

[@ladyfar]

Amazing tips and super well explained! thanks a lot!

[@arslanyounas7302]

Thanks . Its really helpful

[@kevinleesmith]

If you had an automation that has a checklist when the card is moved to a particular list, what happens when you manually remove that card back to a previous list, and then manually move it back into the list that had to check list again? Read delete the partially completed checklist and create a new one will it add another check list of the exact same type or will it delete the checklist completely bullet preserve the checklist that already has?

[@DivineLightProductions]

Hello - Is there a way to create an automation based on multiple Triggers/conditions being met...? Lets say, add a Checklist Item to a card w/ an assignee & date if another Cards Checklist Items are 100% complete. Thanks! - Jared

[@floriangegaj9383]

I moved all the cards from all the lists to one list (completed) with a calendar command setting (that was by a mistake). Is there a command or rule that helps me return the cards from that list (completed) back to their original lists? Thank you.

[@HanafiHazemi]

Thank you so much.. I've been watching all your videos 😊

[@rachelfitzgerald8234]

Hi Shane and thanks for your videos. However, I was gutted to realise when I tried to put some of your excellent automations into action that I can't use them unless I upgrade and pay for Trello! What a shame....Are there any free tools that you are aware of that can provide this sort of functionality? Many thanks.

[@ActiveGrowth]

You can use one automation for free, I believe. There are no tools I know of that provide such features for free. Trello provides a ton of functionality for free and I think it's a fair choice for them to gate advanced automation behind a paywall.

[@kevinleesmith]

What happens, after an automation runs, if the user determines that that was not there what they wanted to do can they control z and reverse everything that just happened?

[@wntsuniverse1343]

I have a certain question if you can answer it! How do you add images/Gifs appear in a trello card description?

[@emilyclaudettefreeman2688]

Been trying to figure out how to use Butler Automation to trigger steps on client publishing production cards and team operation cards that sync. I think this is going to help me.

[@kimblackburn4942]

Hi Shane I want to move a checklist item from one list to another on a card for example from a checklist on Initial Enquiry to the next list on Responded. Is there a way of moving one checklist item to another checklist on a separate list please? Hope I've explained that in a simple way :-)

[@wild_tuna]

If you create an automation on a board that you made a template, does that automation transfer when adding a new board? *Example:* We have separate boards for website builds. Will automations on our Website Template board transfer to new boards for new website builds?

[@EdrisSaberi]

Amazing, thanks for a great content.

[@terezacerna939]

Please help! I have a problem with creating the automation via Butler button. My goal is from main "mother-card" via checklist on it to create a butler, which when triggered, creates the card with name of the mother-card (main project card) and at the same time name of the item in checklist. My button currently sounds: convert all the incomplete items in checklist "Campaign Planning" into linked cards in list "Task Backlog" using pattern "[{triggercardname} - {checklistitename}] ({cardlink})" copying labels Unfortunately only the item name appears on the newly created card. The triggercardname is renamed on the checklist within the mothercard, but doesnt appear on a new card. Does anybody know how to solve this? Thank you!

[@my_codingchannel7479]

it's very easy to run out of automations and then of course it costs.... a lot to upgrade

[@Tetracarbon]

Just a minor point of feedback. A Positive suggestion (since so many of the comments under my videos are less than positive). When you include your face, can you please reduce the size of the portrait or just not overlay it? You are drawing attention to what you are doing on screen and your face talking makes it hard to see the tiny mouse cursor on my phone as I follow the tutorial on the computer. No problem with cutting to you talking if you are not demonstrating something, but otherwise draw attention to the important thing. Cheers!

[@therandomdiaries1022]

Knit a sweater for the cat. #Priorities ..... If you know, you know.

[@kevinleesmith]

Is very stupid you have to actually type in the name of the checklist instead of selecting it from a combo!!!! How old were the children that wrote the software?
