We have prepared an easy way to import the boards from your Trello account to Freelo. You will need only two things: a generated API key and a Token from Trello. The import takes a few minutes, so let’s get started.
1. Create Power-Up
This is a necessary step to generate the API key and Token. Go to the Power-Ups and Integrations and create a new Power-Up.
Fill in the form (you can skip the iframe connector URL field). Next, click on the Create button.
2. Generate API key and Token
After creating the Power-Up on the following page click Generate a new API key. On the next page copy the API key and generate a Token, which you also copy.
3. Import in Freelo
Go to Freelo and via your avatar in the top right corner find Settings and the section Imports & Export.
Import via the API key and Token
Paste the keys to the form and click on Upload the data and Import.
All your Trello boards will be uploaded. You can select those boards from which you want to create a project in Freelo.
If the boards are large, we recommend importing them multiple times, a few boards at a time.
Check your boards for lots of large files that could prevent easy import.
Emails settings for imported users from Trello
Export from Trello does not provide users’ emails so it needs to be done manually. Go to the Import board from Trello page in Freelo. At the bottom of the page, you will see the table where you can add email addresses for users from Trello. After assigning the email to the user, existing comments are connected to the email address.
- Emails can be assigned later on the import page.
- Email address does not have to be the same as in Trello.
