1. Accessing Pabbly Connect for Trello and Notion Integration

To create a Notion item from a Trello card, you first need to access Pabbly Connect. Start by visiting the Pabbly Connect website and signing in or signing up for a free account.

Once logged in, click on the ‘Access Now’ button under Pabbly Connect. This will take you to the dashboard where you can create a new workflow. Here’s how to get started:

• Visit the Pabbly Connect homepage.
• Click on ‘Sign Up for Free’ if you don’t have an account.
• Log in to your account to access the dashboard.

After accessing Pabbly Connect, you are ready to create a new workflow that integrates Trello and Notion seamlessly.

2. Creating a Workflow in Pabbly Connect

In Pabbly Connect, the first step is to create a new workflow. Click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button and name it appropriately, such as ‘Create Notion Item from Trello Card’. This naming will help you identify the workflow later.

Once the workflow is created, you will see two main sections: Trigger and Action. The Trigger is the event that starts the workflow, while the Action is what happens as a result. In this case, the Trigger will be Trello and the Action will be Notion.

• Click on ‘Create Workflow’ and name it.
• Select Trello as the Trigger application.
• Set the Trigger Event to ‘New Card’.

After setting the Trigger, you are ready to connect Trello with Pabbly Connect by providing your Trello account details.

3. Connecting Trello to Pabbly Connect

To connect Trello with Pabbly Connect, you need to provide your Trello username, API key, and token. Start by clicking on the ‘Connect’ button and then ‘Add New Connection’.

Next, retrieve your Trello username from your profile settings. Then, go to the developer key section in Trello to get your API key and generate a token. Once you have these details, paste them into the respective fields in Pabbly Connect.

Click ‘Add New Connection’ in Pabbly Connect. Copy your Trello username from your profile. Retrieve your API key and token from Trello’s developer section.

After entering all the required information, click ‘Save’ to establish the connection. This will allow Pabbly Connect to listen for new cards created in Trello.

4. Setting Up the Action in Pabbly Connect

With Trello successfully connected, the next step is to set up the Action in Pabbly Connect. Click on the Action tab and select Notion as your Action application.

Choose ‘Create Database Item’ as the Action event. You will need to connect your Notion account to Pabbly Connect by clicking ‘Connect’ and allowing access to your Notion pages.

Select Notion as the Action application. Choose ‘Create Database Item’ as the Action event. Allow Pabbly Connect access to your Notion account.

After connecting Notion, you can select the specific page where you want the Trello card details to be added. This ensures that the automation works smoothly, capturing all necessary data from Trello.

5. Mapping Data Between Trello and Notion

Now that both applications are connected, it’s time to map the data from Trello to Notion. In the Notion action setup, you will see fields corresponding to the columns in your Notion database.

Map the details from the Trello card to the appropriate fields in Notion. For instance, map the card title, creator name, board name, and creator ID. This mapping will ensure that whenever a new card is created in Trello, the corresponding details are automatically populated in Notion.

Map the title of the Trello card to the Notion title field. Map the creator name from Trello to Notion. Ensure all relevant details are mapped correctly.

Finally, test the integration by creating a new Trello card and verifying that the details appear in Notion. This confirms that your automation is working effectively with Pabbly Connect.
