After logging in, navigate to the dashboard. Here, you will find options to create a new workflow. Click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button to initiate the process of integrating Jira with Trello through Pabbly Connect.

2. Setting Up the Jira Connection in Pabbly Connect

Once you have created a new workflow in Pabbly Connect, the next step is to set up the Jira connection. Select Jira as your trigger application. You will need to choose the specific trigger event, such as ‘New Issue Created’. This will allow Pabbly Connect to detect new issues from Jira automatically.

• Select ‘New Issue Created’ as the trigger event.
• Connect your Jira account by providing the necessary authentication details.
• Test the connection to ensure that Pabbly Connect can access your Jira data.

After successfully connecting Jira, you can proceed to configure the details of the issue you want to track. This setup is crucial as it defines how Pabbly Connect will pull data from Jira to create cards in Trello.

3. Configuring the Trello Connection in Pabbly Connect

With the Jira connection established, the next step is to set up Trello in your workflow. Select Trello as the action application in Pabbly Connect. Choose the action event, such as ‘Create Card’, which will allow you to automatically create a card in Trello whenever a new issue is created in Jira.

To connect Trello, you will need to authenticate your Trello account. Ensure you provide the correct API key and token, which will allow Pabbly Connect to create cards on your behalf.

• Select ‘Create Card’ as the action event.
• Authenticate your Trello account by entering the required API details.
• Map the fields from Jira to Trello, such as issue title and description.

This mapping is essential as it determines how information from Jira will appear on your Trello cards. Once the mapping is complete, you can test the workflow to ensure everything is functioning correctly.

4. Testing and Activating Your Jira and Trello Workflow

After configuring both Jira and Trello in Pabbly Connect, it’s time to test your workflow. Use the test feature to create a sample issue in Jira and verify that a corresponding card is created in Trello. This step is crucial to ensure that your integration is working as intended.

If the test is successful, you can proceed to activate the workflow. Click on the ‘Turn On’ button in Pabbly Connect to enable your integration. This will allow the system to run in the background and automate the process of creating Trello cards from new Jira issues.

Once activated, you can monitor the workflow activity in the dashboard. This feature helps you track the performance and ensure that your integration continues to function smoothly over time.
