FAQ

Questions about GitHub + Trello.

How do I create a Trello card from a GitHub PR?
GitHub PR Opened → Trello Create Card in a "In Review" list with title from PR, description with PR URL. Move the card to "Done" on PR Merged via the saved card ID.
Can I sync GitHub issue labels to Trello labels?
Yes. Maintain a (github_label → trello_label_id) lookup. On GitHub Issue Updated, Add Label to Card for matching labels. Useful for visual priority on the Trello board.
How do I auto-move Trello cards on GitHub PR state changes?
GitHub PR state change (opened, ready_for_review, merged) → Trello Move Card to the matching list. Maintain (github_state → trello_list_id) lookup. PMs see eng state without GitHub access.
Can I create GitHub issues from Trello cards in reverse?

Store the Trello card ID on the GitHub issue (via labels or custom field). Before Create Card, check for existing. If found, Update Card; otherwise create new.
