Summary

We’ve covered so much ground, and these are just the “basic” actions you can automate with Trello. You can now move cards around, add or remove attributes such as labels or links, adjust due dates, create checklists, add members, and more.

You’ll never remember all of these off the top of your head, and that’s totally okay. Even I have to open up the Automation section sometimes to remember everything that is possible. At first, it’s also not always intuitive which sections you’ll find the actions in, but the more you use them, the more familiar they’ll become.

But if you thought that was all, we’re only getting started. You can still automate even more actions in Trello, so in the next chapter, we’ll talk through some advanced automation actions.
