Frequently Asked Questions about Email by Zapier + Trello integrations
New to automation with Zapier? You're not alone. Here are some answers to common questions about how Zapier works with Email by Zapier and Trello
Can I automatically create Trello cards from incoming emails?
Yes, you can set up a Zap where the trigger is an incoming email via Email by Zapier. We provide the action of creating a new card in Trello, allowing you to automate the task of adding cards based on specific criteria in your emails.
What should I do if my Zap isn't triggering when I receive an email?
Ensure that the email meets all your trigger criteria set up in Email by Zapier. Check your spam or filtering settings and verify that Email by Zapier is receiving the emails as expected. Testing the trigger can help confirm if it's working properly.
Is it possible to update existing Trello cards with data from an email?
At this time, our integration supports creating new cards rather than updating existing ones. You'll need to create a new card each time you want to bring information from an email into Trello.
How do I filter which emails create Trello cards?
We offer functionality to set up filters in the trigger step using conditions like subject line, sender's email address, or other criteria within Email by Zapier before creating a Trello card.
Can attachments from emails be added to Trello cards?
Currently, attachments sent through Email by Zapier are not directly added to Trello cards due to file handling limitations. You'll need alternative means for attaching files directly on Trello.
Will my zap work if there's no internet connection?
Zaps require an active internet connection to operate. If there’s no internet connection, triggers and actions will not execute until connectivity is restored.
Are there any limits on sending emails via Email by Zapier for triggering actions in Trello?
Yes, there might be rate limits or restrictions depending on your plan with Email by Zapier. Ensure you're aware of these limits as they can affect how frequently triggers execute based on incoming emails.
Supported triggers and actions
Zapier helps you create workflows that connect your apps to automate repetitive tasks. A trigger is an event that starts a workflow, and an action is an event a Zap performs.
