Trello

The Trello add-on needs to be installed and activated to see the features mentioned in this this documentation.

This extension allows you to create Trello cards from your Ninja Forms submissions.

You can control the card name and description from your form inputs, assign members to the card by default, set the card labels and its position. You can also set form inputs as links attached to the cards.

Connecting Ninja Forms to your Trello account

Before you can configure your forms to post to Trello, you need to connect Ninja Forms to your Trello account. Navigate in your WordPress dashboard to Ninja Forms > Trello and click Connect with Trello.

Grant access and you’re ready to move on.

Creating Trello cards from Ninja Forms submissions

Data from any submitted form can be used to create a card in your Trello account through the addition of a Trello action to any form.

Open the form you want to create Trello cards with, click the Emails & Actions tab, and click the blue circle/+ icon in the bottom right to add a new action.

Locate the Trello action and click to add it to your form.

You can now configure the Trello action as needed. Select the Organization, Board, and then List you want the cards to be created in, and then set the Card Name, Card Description, and any Attachment Links you desire. These can all populated from fields within the form via merge tags selected from the icon to the right of the field.

Advanced Card Settings

You can further configure the Trello card using the ‘Advanced’ section of the action. Here you can select where the card will be added to the list, either to the top or the bottom. You can set the labels to be added to the card, and which members are assigned to it.
