Connect Trello so Coworker can see the boards and cards your team is actually working on. Trello takes two steps: an admin registers one API key for the workspace, then each person connects their own Trello token.
What Coworker can do with Trello
Index the boards, lists, cards, checklists, labels, custom fields and comments your Trello account can reach
Produce a per-board digest of what moved: cards created, cards that changed list ("Backlog to In Progress"), cards completed or archived, comments and checklist items ticked off, each attributed to the person who did it. Quiet and closed boards produce nothing.
Answer questions on demand — what is in progress on a board, what is assigned to you and overdue, or a catch-up on a specific card and its comment thread
Boards become Project entities and cards become Task entities, with real roles: the creator holds REPORTED, assignees hold ASSIGNED, commenters hold COMMENTED. Trello's activity feed, checklists, labels and lists stay in the raw store and drive the reports.
Before you start
An admin needs a Trello Power-Up API key for the workspace
Every member needs their own Trello token, authorized against that same API key
Have your Trello workspace IDs to hand if you want to pin which workspaces are indexed
Connect as an admin
Open Data Sources from the admin settings in Coworker and select Trello.
Paste the Trello API key. On its own this key reads nothing — it identifies the integration so users can authorize against it.
Recommended: pin your tenant workspace IDs so employees' personal or client Trello workspaces are never imported.
Save, then connect your own Trello token exactly as a member does.
Connect as a member
Go to the Work page and click Data Sources.
Select Trello and authorize Coworker to generate your personal token.
Trello moves to Connected and your boards begin indexing.
Good to know
Trello offers no company-wide admin token, so what Coworker sees is the union of the boards connected people can see. Someone who never connects contributes nothing, and that gap is not recoverable later — Trello exposes no email for unconnected members, so their past card activity can never be attributed to them.
Boards are private by default: a board is readable in Coworker only by the connected people Trello lists as members. Publicly published boards, and workspace-visible boards in a confirmed tenant workspace, become workspace-visible.
Tokens are bound to the API key that authorized them. If an admin changes the network API key, every user has to authorize again.
If someone loses access to a board in Trello, their access in Coworker is revoked on the next sync.
Trello has no status, priority or assignee field. A card's status is the list it sits in, priority is usually a label, and members are a list rather than a single assignee.
