Card specific custom fields - when will this functionality be available?
Asked by Deb Breen:

I've noticed that many people here have requested the ability to add functionality for card specific custom fields. And I currently am in need of this feature as well. Is this on the Trello roadmap and if so, when might it be available??

See: [How to chose which fields to show or hide on Trello cards?](https://docs.amazingpowerups.com/article/4-how-to-choose-which-files-to-show-on-cards) in the Amazing Fields documentation site. You can even use formulas to dynamically determine if a field should show up.

body: Thanks [@Allen -Amazing PowerUps-](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4532876) - I actually \*just\* found and installed Amazing Fields. And while I like the functionality, it's a bit of a bummer that when the fields are hidden the space that the fields take up shows as empty space on the card. :(

body: They shouldn't show up at all.

Here is an example board that is using this capability and the fields don't show up when not needed. <https://trello.com/b/xlQbIsPC/amazing-fields-features>

Feel free to follow up with Amazing Fields support by clicking on the "Support" button to help resolve the issue. It definitely shouldn't be doing what you are describing.

body: That's great news! I'll check out the example you shared and will follow up w/ support if needed. Thanks so much for your help Allen. Really appreciate it.

body: Amazing fields don't show on the app - which is fine, I just need the custom field I created to NOT be on EVERY card on a board. Any ideas?

Something I built yesterday might be useful here. It is to turn a checklist into reference-able Trello variables so that it can be used as part of your automation. Stay tuned.

Probably not as sleek as Amazing Fields but it works

This is something I am working on. It is inspired by your request for card specific custom fields. The key is really the fact that I can use the same app as a server to get the data back and the variables in Trello automation.

If you can, what are you using for ui. Currently, I can only use jinja2 templates which is not pretty.

The output is actual {httpresponse} which means you can use it in Trello Automation using {httpresponse.\<some name\>} to get the value e.g.{httpresponse.Card Specific CF } will give you "You asked for it".
