Filtering across multiple boards...?
Asked by David Blair:

I would love to be able to filter across multiple boards. So for instance if I want to see, in one place at one time, just those cards that I have colour coded with a particular code or to see those tasks which I have filtered to do this week. New to Trello, any advice much appreciated. Many thanks.

comments: author: David Blair
body: excellent thank you. Used up my one and only power up though as I'm not business level.


author: Iain Dooley
body: [@David Blair](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2322157) I never used the power up when I was using Placker, just logged into the Placker website. The only disadvantage of doing this is that you login to 2 systems, but would free up your power up slot for another use.

Some basics needed on Trello's Rest API
Asked by Dean Rowntree:

Hey everyone

I am very new to working with APIs but have used Trello for a long time. At my workplace, I have got my team using Trello to manage our tasks. I'm responsible for producing a weekly report on the progress of said tasks. Currently I do that using a connection with Bridge24, a filter within Bridge24 to export to Excel. Then I use Get\&Transform to query the export to produce what I want. This is a fairly complicated way of doing it, but now it's set up, isn't too time consuming.

What I really want to do is use Trello's API and plug that into Microsoft Power BI and have the data from Trello refresh instantly.

I have been experimenting and can get certain information into PowerBI as a query from data source type "web".

When I'm researching and looking for answers, I see a lot of posts that say something along the lines of: "you need to call this and then call this". Is this done in one long URL, or do I need to make multiple URLs and string them together somehow (in PowerBI, blank query and use PHP or something?

I have many questions but I'll start with this one first!

Thanks for reading.


Answers:
author: marc -Collabello--Phase Locked-
body: [@Dean Rowntree](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1142322)Usually, when you use the Trello API, you can get some information in a single call (i.e. using a single URL). However for more advanced reporting, you'd need multiple calls like: Get all cards on a board. Then for each card, get some information.

This would require some programming from your end.


author: Iain Dooley
body: [@Dean Rowntree](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1142322) You might like to try this framework I wrote for automating Trello with Google Apps Script:

<https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Trello-articles/Introducing-Trellinator-Automate-Trello-with-Google-Apps-Script/ba-p/925271>

It dramatically simplifies the task of creating complex automations, including reporting. It's loosely based on the work from this guy:

comments: author: Dean Rowntree
body: Thanks [@Iain Dooley](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1416112), I have previously seen the Little Blue Monkey post you linked but that seemed too vague, or assumed I need to know a lot more, for me to know where to start.

I am interested in your post and will look at setting that up with my personal account first and see what I can achieve.
Sorting Cards Numerically in Trello
Asked by Roy Yoo:

Good Morning,

I'll start off with an example to help me ask my question. I have a list of cards that have numbers in the title.

* Example: 1200, 1120, 123, 5, 2, 7.
  * Currently Trello sorts like this: 1120, 1200, 123, 2, 5, 7.
  * I'd like the cards sorted liked this: 2, 5, 7, 123, 1120, 1200.

Is there a way to do this within Trello or with an add on? If an add on is required, which add on would help this?

Please advise.

Thanks in advance!


Answers:
author: Iain Dooley
body: [@Roy Yoo](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2317505) Trello doesn't have any card sorting natively (does it?!) Butler will sort a list alphabetically, but you can ask it to sort numerically, if I recall correctly something like:

Sort list "blah" numerically

should work

comments: author: Roy Yoo
body: I only see the following options for sorting:

* Date Created (Newest)
* Date Created (Oldest)
* Card Name (Alphabetically)


author: Iain Dooley
body: [@Roy Yoo](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2317505) oh right, strange I thought they had an option to sort numerically by card name. You can email their support to ask if they'd add it, they're usually pretty responsive.

Here is a Trellinator function that would do it:

<https://gist.github.com/iaindooley/5d2cc46bd6d91c4605c5ed532a82a2c9>

You could install that Globally and any time you wanted to sort a list by name numerically just add a card "Sort" to it.

You can see more about how to install Trellinator here:

Looking at Team Tasks in Trello & Dependent Tasks
Asked by AZ Advisory Group:

If I have the free version of Trello, can I look at my team member's tasks on one page? If not, does Trello gold allow me to do that?

Basically I'm looking for a feature that allows me to look at what my team members have on their schedule for the week/month.

Also, what is the best power up to set dependant tasks and has anyone found a way to set due dates to checklist items?

Thanks

Amber


Answers:
author: Iain Dooley
body: [@AZ Advisory Group](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2316933) You can see anyone's cards view by going to this URL:

<https://trello.com/iaindooley/cards>

Just replace "iaindooley" with their username.

There are a few ways to do task dependency in Trello, one common one is to create a checklist of linked cards.

Placker is a great tool for doing formal dependencies on a timeline using a Gantt chart.

There are no due dates on checklist items but again if you create a checklist of linked cards you can set a due date on each card.

body: [@Jaqueline Braga](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2315838) If you want more than one power up then you'll need to pay for the appropriate plan.

Process flow through the end? What does/should my board look like 2 weeks in?
Asked by Mark Wusinich:

Hello, I am slowly getting used to using Trello to track things. My goal is to have two boards for personal use before I invest the time to create stuff for work. I want to really understand it before I invest other team members time in using something that I don't currently understand.

I want to create a household chores board, that tracks my family's progress on cleaning and chores, and I want to create a personal todo board.

<br />

All the tutorials and on-line blogs are about setting up the board and they seem to finish with "Task Completed", but what happens afterwards? Six weeks later does your "Task Completed" list have 200 things on it? What does it look like six months later?

I can see that archiving is a thing, but how do I archive and still get reporting? It would be nice if there was a tutorial that discussed what you can do six weeks into using the tool. Maybe six weeks from now it will be obvious, but I kind of what to know what to expect before I start investing time into this tool.

Finally I love Joel's writing. I wish he would continue to write.


Answers:
author: Iain Dooley
body: [@Mark Wusinich](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1710714) one obvious choice would be to have an archive board, and periodically rename the list with the current month then move it to the archive board so you have a full history without cluttering up your main board.

comments: author: Mark Wusinich
body: Thank you, but nothing seems obvious to me. I have little experience with this, and my goal is to save/archive them in a way that I can still report on them in a meaningful way.

So have a whole board 'archive' then at the start of each month, rename it to Archive_YYYYMM, then create a new board named Archive?


author: Iain Dooley
body: [@Mark Wusinich](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1710714) I didn't mean it should be obvious to you ;)

I would have a single archive board and rename your done list, then move the list to the archive board.

Eg. rename the list to "Done November 2018" and move the list to the archive board, then create a new Done list.


author: Bob Shaw
body: I create a yyyy-mm-completed column. then move the column to the archive board when I get too many such that they annoy me to take action.
I want to enter custom field value through email in Trello. Is this possible?

author: Iain Dooley
body: [@SaJaL RaJ](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2312208) not directly but if you format the subject line in a particular way you can use API automation to set a custom field value:

<https://developers.trello.com/docs/getting-started-custom-fields>

For example, when you send an email in the format:

New expense $3.20

you could split the title of the created card at the $ sign then enter 3.20 into the Amount custom field.

Elegantt Yes or No
Asked by Brian W:

Hi all,

Trello is a cool tool. My team likes it. However, as PM's we are used to using Gantt charts / MSP to manage our projects details. (Milestones, tasks, rolling up to the milestones, dependencies, etc. Unfortunately, our company does not use / support MSP.

Can anyone please tell me the pro's and con's with Elegantt. (Reviews are mixed)

Thanks so much,

Brian


Answers:
author: Iain Dooley
body: [@Brian W](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2313009) I found Elegantt pretty useless. Placker is an incredible and powerful Gantt charting interface (and more) that has robust 2 way synch with Trello.

comments: author: Brian W
body: Hi, thanks. Are you using it today?


author: Brian W
body: If yes, did you go with the Basic, Pro or Enterprise?


author: Iain Dooley
body: [@Brian W](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2313009) No I used it for about a year, but I don't really need gantt charting. Mostly what I was using it for was to show me cards across all boards, split by label or member.

I subsequently spent about a year consulting with Butler, with which I was able to replace much of that required functionality through automation.

I subsequently built 2 products Benko Board and Trellinator that now allow me to achieve the same results as I was with Butler :)

But while I was using Placker my experiences with the product, the responsiveness of support and the reliability were all very positive. I don't know about the plans, I was paying EUR7/month when I used it, and I only had one user in Placker. One plus is that you only pay for Placker users, even though it allows you to track and assign tasks for all members across all your boards, even if they don't have Placker accounts.
New cards were not saved
Asked by Caryn Martinez:

Last week I added several new cards to a board. This is a shared board, but I don't think anyone else was using it at the time.

Today I don't see the cards on the board, and no one else has seen them, either.

I've been reading about descriptions being lost when people forget to save them, but what about whole CARDS? Once I make a card, it should always be there until deleted, right?

What could have happened?


Answers:

Can I stop copying the board?
Asked by DK-STUDIO:

I want to block anyone except admin from copying the board. Is it impossible?


Answers:
author: Ravi Varma
body: Hi [@DK-STUDIO](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2015954),

Short answer is **No**

Please note that boards are driven by underlying filter used for creating the board. Hence, board creation and copy of the board is driven by the ability of the user accessing the issues in underlying filter.

Based on your statement, it is unlikely to restrict the admin to have access and deprive others from not creating/copying the board.

if I change language to traditional Chinese I can't save Due Date

Assigning cards
Asked by Tetiana Honcharova:

Hi everyone.

Can you please suggest if it is possible to assign tickets numbers and/or sprint numbers in Trello automatically?


Answers:
author: Iain Dooley
body: [@Tetiana Honcharova](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2307905) Every card has a unique ID which you can find in the URL, that's the most obvious choice.

What is the workflow you're wanting to achieve?

comments: author: Tetiana Honcharova
body: Thanks for reply.

Well it would be convenient if there would be the way to mark somehow sprints and the tickets inside relayed to sprint. I mean automatically and in addition to sprint name which is created.


author: Iain Dooley
body: [@Tetiana Honcharova](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2307905) Perhaps you could have one card per sprint, and one board for each sprint card linked to the card.

That way you'd have an overview board which showed all your sprints, and could drill down to the cards for each sprint.

You would have your backlog on the overview board, then move cards from there into the current sprint board (maybe with some interim lists while planning) and then you'd have stages for the sprints to go through in order to be deployed.

Any cards that didn't get done from a sprint board could move to the backlog again, and the sprint cards would sit in a "Done" list, maybe with the completed due date showing when they were deployed.

A next logical step would be to automate all of that to reduce manual clicking and dragging, and to perhaps provide automated reporting on the overview board to indicate the current status of the sprint

Problem with admin rights

While your team would probably never do this if one of their accounts could become compromised and the attacker would use this as an opportunity to implement this type of attack.
