trello search within sprcific boards
Asked by Udi Semana:

i want to search within specific boards and not all of the boards...


Answers:
author: Matthew N
body: Hey Udi,

The way to do this would be:   
1. Click on the search bar on the top next to "Boards"   
2. Input the following "board:\[name of the board\]" and give the keyword   
3. So it'll look like *board:"Trello" Keyword*

i want to search in 3 of 10 boards

the way you suggested allow to search within 1 board only


author: Matthew N
body: You can search 1 board, or all boards, there's not a way to do 3/10 boards unfortunately. Good suggestion for the Trello team, though! Shoot them a suggestion at feature-ideas@trello.com :)
Is there a way to sort, organize, or otherwise change the viewing order of my Trello boards?
Asked by Keri Parsons:

I saw a response for renaming the boards and using special characters, as it seems the default is alphabetical order....but I was looking for a simple drag-n-drop solution. Am I missing something obvious?


Answers:
author: Matthew N
body: Hey Keri

The boards are sorted alphabetically, and there's not a way to change this except by [starring your boards](http://help.trello.com/article/965-starring-a-board). When you star boards, you can arrange them in any way you see fit.

comments: author: Keri Parsons
body: Thanks! I will try it out.


author: Scott St Onge
body: Wow! hard not to sound ungrateful for the amazing tool this is, but it seems as powerful as this is, that this organizing feature would be a given.

Does it have to do with the internal cohesiveness of the system? A way for Trello to keep everything in check.

With all the internal features (as a newbie) it is so frustrating not to be able to move boards around. It just makes sense, at least in my limited understanding.
Is there an official swagger.json for Trello?
Asked by yingxie3:

I found a swagger.json for Trello on apis.guru. However, some of the definitions in the file are incomplete. Does anyone know whether an official swagger.json for Trello exist?

Thanks,

Ying


Answers:
author: bentley
body: Hey Ying,

Unfortunately, there is not an official swagger.json for Trello.

comments: author: Ying Airxp
body: Bentley, thanks for the info. I saw from earlier posts that Atlassian used bitbucket to experiment with swagger, and may move more APIs to swagger if the experiment proves successful. May I ask what's the conclusion on swagger? Do you guys think it's worth the effort to move to swagger?

Thanks again,

Ying


author: bentley
body: Hey Ying, I am not sure what the conclusion has been on Swagger as I've not been involved. I believe they will share their findings at <https://developers.atlassian.com/community/> when they are ready to. Sorry I don't know more!

Trello Private Board, but publicly viewable?
Asked by peteruchytil:

I have a small design team that would like to use Trello for projects. We would have about five people actually managing boards in Trello, but we would like to link cards to Jira and have anyone in the org be able to view them. Is this possible? Reading the description of private vs team vs public boards, it doesn't seem possible.

More specifically, I have a team of 5 who will create and edit Trello boards and cards. I have an extended team of 50 who will need to view those boards and cards, but not edit. Is this possible, or would all 50 have to be team members?


Answers:
author: Matthew N
body: Hey Peter,

If you're a Business Class user, you can have those 5 members on your team and associate the board to that team. Then, you can add observers to the team board (no charge for those), and the observers will be limited to only viewing the board, and can comment/vote if those are activated.

If a board is not public, it's not possible for someone that's not added to the board to view it.

Still receiving email notifications though frequency set to 'never'
Asked by Matt:

I had set my Notification Email Frequecy to 'Immediately' for a while, but it got to be too much (especially on boards where I'm the only user).

I set the frequency first to 'Periodically' and then to 'Never', but still receive notifications for every change, right away.

User error? Is there a second place I should be changing a setting?


Answers:
author: Mike
body: Hi Matthew,

If you've got that frequency preference set to 'Never,' Trello certainly shouldn't be sending you anything. I have a hunch that Trello isn't sending those notifications. Do you maybe use an Outlook-based email, such as Outlook itself, or an online version like Outlook 365?

Outlook products have an integration available called the Office Connector, that is capable of sending its own notifications, regardless of your Trello email settings. If you look in Outlook's settings, can you try disabling that and seeing if that stops those notifications?

Otherwise, I'd ask you to write in at <https://trello.com/contact> with a screenshot of one of those notifications, and we'll get to the bottom of things.

comments: author: Matt
body: 100% right! That was it.

Outlook (web version in my case). All I needed to do was, as you said, disable a Connector in the Settings -\> Manage Connectors menu (nb., not an Add-in which I had also tried disabling).

Problem solved. Thank you very much!

While it's not possible to contact the creator of that board, if you have a Trello account, you can make a copy of that board, which you can then modify however you like.

Impossible breaking down further details.?

I would like to have any further reply.


author: Caity
body: Hi there,

I'm afraid I'm having trouble understanding the question. The inspiration boards are boards that were made up as an example of how to use Trello. They aren't boards that are actually in use, so they haven't changed since they were created.

The tags in your Gyazo screenshot are different themes that we have sample boards for. For example, if you're interested in using Trello to organize your sales progress, you could click on the "Sales" tag to see sample boards for sales teams.

If that doesn't answer your question, would you mind explaining a little more about what you're trying to do? We'd be happy to help!

How to get activity of card with REST API.

Can I get Activity in batch processing instead of dynamic?

author: Oscar Triscon
body: Yes, you can get the activity as batches. You will need to get the [actions](https://developers.trello.com/reference/#actions) associated with the cards on the board.

For the particular purpose of listing all the cards converted from a checklist item on a board, you can issue a request like this:

```
GET boards/BOARD_ID/actions?filter=convertToCardFromCheckItem&limit=1000&key=KEY&token=TOKEN
```

This will return an array of up to 1000 checklist item conversions on your board.

A slow Trello board
Asked by Per Polland:

Hi,

I'm experiencing that my trello board is performing poorly and very slowly. There are about 900 open cards and many more archived so I realise we are pushing it in terms of capacity. The key thing I want to understand is whether there is any risk of it deteriorating further or stopping to work altogether? I will keep archiving cards so that there are always less than 1000 but I think that even the number of archived cards does affect the performance (and that number will continue to go up)


Answers:
author: Yatish Madhav
body: Unfortunately, I cannot vouch for any solution/answer at this stage but would like to know from Trello/Atlassian if there is any progress and action happening in terms of speeding up Trello?  

I admin a few boards as well. 1 board has about 500 cards while another has 233 ... but the one with 233 is slow and lagging and often crashing the Chrome tab at times.

Please advise?


author: Devon Henderson
body: Hello Per,

Unfortunately, anything over about 500 cards will start to degrade your Trello experience. Is ther a way you can offload some cards to other boards? For example, a Backlog board or something similar? If not, then limiting attachments, Power-Ups, etc. will most likely help.

comments: author: Per Polland
body: Hi Devon, thank you that's helpful. So just on the point of general "breaking point", what will generally happen is just that the performance will deteriorate continuously but there's no chance of it snapping?
How do I disable self-join on a trello team board that has it enabled?
Asked by Erich_Keil:

I made a trello board team visible, and when given the option allowed team members to add themselves to the board. I would now like to disable self-join for that board but don't see an option to do that anywhere. Making the board private and then team visible doesn't ask the self-join question again, it retains the previous settings. Changing it from the team and back didn't retrigger the option either. Please help, I'd like to control who does and doesn't get added to the team visible board as an editing member without having to recreate the board from scratch.

Where to find a board's iCal feed on an ipad?
Asked by Ascha Pedersen:

markdown/Text formatting not working in iOS
Asked by Daniel Gerber:

Just started with Trello, and just noticed that markdowns (as indicated here <http://help.trello.com/article/821-using-markdown-in-trello>) don't work on comments on cards in ios although it works in descriptions in ios as well..

They work on the android phone app, and on chrome/chromium (on PC and linux)

Is this known, am I missing something and I can't get it to work?

Thanks Dan


Answers:

We're unfortunately aware that there are still some inconsistencies between where Markdown is properly supported, due to various limitations. This is something we're working to improve in future versions of the iOS app!

author: Court Dimon
body: Spent some time thinking I was insane before finding this thread. Glad I did. Hopefully this can be updated this year to work properly?


author: John Lahut

Is there a way to monitor engagement (clicks + opens) on Trello boards?
Asked by Geoff Decker:

Our organization uses a Trello board to curate top news that is related to the work that we do. We want to determine how helpful/accessible it is to our colleagues, and I was thinking that one of the ways to measure this would be to see how often folks are opening the board, opening cards, and clicking on the links. Is there any way we can keep track of that?


Answers:
author: Matthew N
body: Hey Geoff,

There's not a way to do this with Trello, unfortunately. I recently wanted to do the same for a project, but was not able to even find any third party tools to assist.

I ended up going with a Bitly, but only for my board itself.
How to export custom fields from Trello
Asked by uppers:

Hey all,

Trying to export data from a trello board to report to a client and need to pull out the custom feilds as we are using these to store various refernces. We also need the references to lookup against other older clunkier systems.

Any idea how I might do this?

Many thanks


Answers:
author: Mike
body: Hi Richard,

All of the Custom Fields data is included in Trello's JSON export, which you can read more about here: <http://help.trello.com/article/747-exporting-data-from-trello-1>

Depending on how you're planning to use that information, the JSON export might be a little tough to parse, so your other alternative is to use Trello's API to pull out exactly what you need: <https://developers.trello.com/>

The API is fully documented, and that will let you get directly to the information you're looking for.

Search Checklist item status
Asked by Lesley Ward:

Is it possible to search on an items which appears in the checklists on lots of cards and only show those checklist items which haven't been completed?

eg in one of our boards we have a list for administration and then we create a card for each client with the same checklist included for each card. If we want to run a search for all clients with a checklist item of 'AML completed' where that checklist item hasn't been checked off, how would we do that?

I can see we can run a search for 'AML' completed but that brings up clients where it has and hasn't been marked as complete.

Thanks

Right now, there isn't a way to search only for incomplete checklist items. I'll pass your interest in that on to our team!

Can I create a card from an email forwarded on to the board by an outlook email rule...?
Asked by Sam Sharpe:

Hi,

I've got some email notifications coming into my email account, and I'm trying to get it to automatically forward said emails to the board via a microsoft outlook rule (I can't add the board email into the source of the notifications it won't accept that address).

So I can email the account, and that creates a card. I can even forward emails to it manually and it gets there, but when I set up a rule to email to forward the message on I'm not getting a card created.

Thoughts?

Thanks.

Dynamic cards across boards on Trello?
