FAQ

Questions about Delete Card.

What does the Delete Card action do in Trello?

Permanently deletes a Trello card. Irreversible; prefer Archive Card for everyday cleanup.

What inputs does Delete Card require?

Required: Card ID. Every input accepts a static value or a variable from any upstream node in your workflow.

Can I use dynamic inputs from earlier workflow nodes?

Yes. Any field on this action can pull values from upstream nodes, whether that's a form response, a trigger payload, an AI output, or a lookup result.

What happens if Trello returns an error?

The run history shows the failed step with its input and the error message Trello returned, so you can fix the input and run the workflow again. Automatic retries are built into HTTP steps only, where you can also set your own retry count and delay.

Does Delete Card support batch operations?

Run Delete Card inside a loop to process each item in an array. TinyCommand does not throttle calls for you, so for large arrays add a Delay step if you need to stay within Trello's rate limits.
