What are the best solutions / power ups to generate dashboard insights based on card info?
Asked by Cozy Ace:

**The main issue:** I want to know if anyone's figured out the cheapest option to pull numerical information from trello cards and generate some kind of a reliable dashboard or business metrics spreadsheet view all within Trello?

**The context:** A laser cutting and engraving business uses Trello to manage projects---one card per job. They meticulously enter in all the information like materials used, quoted price, actual price, materials cost, time spent, etc. They're recording a great deal of helpful information that would guide their business decisions if I could develop a way for all those cards to auto-populate a spreadsheet, and/or some way to use formulas to add up things like total monthly gross income, average time spent per job, total monthly materials cost, etc. Anything along those lines.

**The solutions I've learned about so far all require either paid power-ups or multiple platforms:**

**- Trello + Unito to Google Sheets** (for two-way syncing, paid)

**- Trello + Zapier to Google Sheets** (for one-way data automation, paid)

**- Move from Trello to Jira**(where metrics and analytics are more natively built-in)

**Summary:**

I just have to know if anyone has a free and/or Trello-native solve for this. Is everyone seriously paying for Zapier or Unito? Or are y'all using both Trello and Jira? Or are y'all just manually entering everything in between platforms?

Where are smaller, service-based companies (who use Trello) building out their metrics dash?

Any help would be great---I'm already aware of the more obvious solutions but since they're relatively costly, I'm MOST curious about free or Trello-platform-only solutions to keep things simple for this business. Less cost and less time spent on learning new tools is a plus.

TIA

body: Hi [@Cozy Ace](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5386849) a couple options that come to mind that are native/Trello-owned/free:

- [Dashcards](https://blog.trello.com/dashcards-powerup): create quick counts of cards based on custom filters. It can also sum values in custom fields, and you can view the data in your report in a grid view where you can pivot or visualise information.

- [Butler automation](https://trello.com/guide/automate-anything): It's possible to create calculations of custom fields with butler (see [custom field arithmetic](https://support.atlassian.com/trello/docs/working-with-custom-fields/)). Perhaps you can have a card or multiple cards which can host these calculations.

You could have these reporting cards on your main board, or create a seperate "Overview Dashboard" and keep them there.

Due soon period
Asked by Ilham Riski Hasibuan:

I would like to ask is it possible to change the due soon period from 24 hours to a week on Trello ?


Answers:
author: Mutya A
body: Hi Ilham,

Right now, we don't have the option to change the due soon period as it's set to 24 hours, but I can see how helpful that must be.

What you can do, as an alternative, is to make use of [due date automation](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-jtrkSAjmz8) to look for cards due a week before and see the necessary actions e.g. add a label, send an email, move to a "Due soon" list, etc.

Hope this helps but let me know if you have any other questions!

Is there a way to join multiple (20+) boards at once?
Asked by Courtney League:

Is there a faster way to join multiple boards at once rather than having to go into each individual board and join there?


Answers:
author: Sal
body: Hi [@Courtney League](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5386690)! Sadly, no, there isn't a way for you to join multiple boards simultaneously. However, if you're the Workspace admin of a paid Workspace (Premium or Standard), you're automatically a board admin of all boards, so you don't need to join all of them simultaneously. However, if you aren't a Workspace admin, you'll need to be invited to each one of the boards or join them (if this option is enabled). I hope that helps!

comments: author: Courtney League
body: Thanks, Sal! I am an Admin of a Premium workspace, however- it seems I have to manually join a board to have access to Power up features- Bulk Action for example.


author: Sal
body: I see! In this case, you're right. You'll need to join the boards to access all the board settings, including the Power-Ups if you need to set them up.

Third-Party Cookies Chrome Phaseout
Asked by kj ib:

When testing for the Third-Parth Cookies Phasehout which Chrome announced (<https://developers.google.com/privacy-sandbox/3pcd>), I noticed that the cookies are not being send to our API.

What I'm trying is:

When trying to go to card-buttons and make an API call to our app (via ajax), we get an unauthrized warning from our app, since the cookies are missing in the request.

Adding card via 'share', with selected 'board' can I select 'new list' if not added in advance?
Asked by dwba:

When trying to add a new trello card from a browser or other app via 'share', after selecting a board, sometimes there is no appropriate list to select from the available combo of lists. A quick solution seems to be to select any list as a temporary measure, then separately go to trello later to create a new list and move the temorarily created new card from the selected temporary list, to the new correct list. It would be so nice to save time by having an option 'new list' in the lists combo, to complete all of this quickly in a two-part transaction.

So just wondered if this has been discussed before and if not, how it might be considered for a future enhancement.

Is it possible to archive / close a Workspace?
Asked by Jennifer:

I have information saved on boards which I am no longer using right now. I may need it in the future so I don't want to delete them, but I'd like to archive them within the Workspace.

The boards contain medical records for my dad, from different locations or time periods. I have already archived / closed them...

The Workspace contains all of them and is his name... which is why I really don't want to just delete the Workspace.


Answers:
author: Dreamsuite Mike
body: So long as you were a creator/member of the boards or they were workspace boards and you were the member of the workspace, the boards wont be deleted when you delete the workspace. The boards will be closed if opened and they will become your "personal" boards, you can find them at <https://trello.com/my/boards>

Printing a card using a macbook pro
Asked by Tracey Lee:

I recently switched from a Dell to a macbook pro. When I try to print a card, it prints 9 copies of the same card with what looks like overlapping outlines of cards covering the top 1/2 of the card. I am printing from the share button on the card. The print preview does show 9 pages but it does not show there being an issue with the top of the document. This looks like it should print normally.

1 Workspace (mine, Free plan), 4 Boards - don't want all members to see all boards
Asked by Sister:

I have a Free TRELLO Workspace with 4 boards.

A. MAIN GOAL: I want members of Boards to be able to see ONLY the Board they are invited to. How do I do this?

I've reviewed many Trello articles, including those below. I am told to:

(1) Go to the Board menu on the right side of the board, (2) click on Settings, then (3) Permissions and options will vary per user."

Problem: #3 above is not shown.

How do I meet this goal? Thanks in advance.

B. Secondary issue: I'd like all members to be able to CREATE and move cards, not just comment. How do I do this on the Free plan, please?

C: Phone app not working: Yes, I reinstalled it and cleared phone cache. I ALSO FILLED OUT THE ATLASSIAN HELP FORM 3 weeks ago. Zero response. Atlassian, can you reach out to me, please?? Peace.


Answers:
author: Sal
body: Hi [@Sister](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5385995)! You could prevent users from viewing the boards of your Workspace by setting your board's visibility to "Private", ensuring that *only invited users* can view and access them. You can learn more about changing your board's visibility here: <https://support.atlassian.com/trello/docs/changing-the-visibility-of-a-board/>.

Regarding your second question, Trello doesn't provide the fine-tuned permissions you're looking for. Currently, all Trello members have the same permissions on a board, except for Observers (only available on Premium Workspaces). So, I'm afraid you can't restrict their permissions to this level.

Nevertheless, I'll add you as +1 to our internal request for fine-tuned permissions on Trello. I appreciate your interest.

I know J[ira Work Management (JWM)](https://www.atlassian.com/software/jira/work-management) allows you to have fine-tuned permissions depending on your use case. Perhaps it's worth checking out to see if it would work for you.

billing new user with personal premium account
Asked by Hubstract Madeforart:

Hello,

we are considering a premium account for our company with 6 members, all internal workers.

I'm asking what happens if I invite on multiple boards a guest who is yet paying for a personal trello account.

How is the billing modified for the company? How for the guest?

Thank you in advance


Answers:
author: Renato Fagaraz
body: Hi, welcome to the Atlassian Community!

With Trello Premium, billing is based on the number of Workspace members, which includes the core team within your company's Workspace. In your case, as you have 6 internal members, your company Workspace would be billed for those 6 Premium members.  

Regarding guests, there's an important distinction to keep in mind: single-board guests are not counted towards your billing, but if a guest is invited to multiple boards in your Premium Workspace, they are considered multi-board guests and are billable.  

If your guest already has a personal Trello account for which they're paying, inviting them to your Workspace as a multi-board guest would not affect their personal billing. They would continue to pay for their personal account separately. However, in your Workspace, this guest would count as an additional member for billing purposes.  

So, if you invite a guest to more than one board in your Premium Workspace, your company would be billed for 7 members in total (6 internal members plus 1 multi-board guest). It's also worth noting that you can add or remove multi-board guests at any time, and your billing will be adjusted accordingly.  

Hopefully this helps, let me know if you have any questions!
