Frequently Asked Questions about GitLab + Trello integrations
New to automation with Zapier? You're not alone. Here are some answers to common questions about how Zapier works with GitLab and Trello
How do I set up an integration between GitLab and Trello?
To set up an integration, navigate to your dashboard and select 'Make a Zap'. Choose GitLab as your trigger app and Trello as your action app. You'll be prompted to log into both accounts if you're not already. From there, you can customize triggers and actions.
What triggers can I use with GitLab in a Trello integration?
You can use triggers such as 'New Merge Request', 'New Commit', or 'New Issue Event' from GitLab. These triggers initiate actions in Trello like adding cards or updating lists seamlessly.
Can I automatically create Trello cards from GitLab issues?
Yes, once you've set the trigger as 'New Issue Event' in GitLab, you can automate the creation of a new card in your desired Trello board to keep track of new issues instantly.
How does syncing updates between GitLab issues and Trello cards work?
We allow you to sync updates by setting up a sequence where changes in a GitLab issue, like status updates or comments, reflect in corresponding Trello cards. This ensures all team members are aligned regardless of platform preference.
Is it possible to trigger actions in GitLab from activities on Trello?
Currently, our focus is primarily on triggering actions within Trello based on activities happening within GitLab. Bidirectional triggers involving starting actions on Trello are not broadly supported yet.
What happens if there is an error during the integration process?
If an error occurs, we provide detailed logs within the integration setup interface that help identify where the process failed. These logs guide you on necessary adjustments needed for smooth operation.
Are there limits on the number of tasks I can automate between GitLab and Trello?
While most common automations are supported extensively, certain rate limits apply based on API usage policies of both GitLab and Trello. It’s best to consult our API usage documentation for specific limitations.
