Typeform + Trello
Turn Typeform Responses into Trello Cards — Automatically
Connect Typeform and Trello to convert form submissions into tasks the moment they come in.
Why integrate Typeform and Trello?
Typeform is one of the best ways to collect information — job applications, project briefs, support requests, event registrations. Trello is where teams organize and act on that information. Connecting the two means every form response becomes a structured, trackable card in the right Trello board, with no manual data entry and no lag.
Automate & integrate Typeform & Trello
Use case
Project Request Intake
When a client or internal stakeholder submits a project brief through Typeform, tray.ai creates a new Trello card in your intake board with all the relevant details pre-populated — project name, deadline, budget, and description. The right team members are assigned immediately, and the card lands in the correct list based on project type. Teams can start reviewing and scoping work within seconds of a request coming in.
Use case
Job Application Pipeline Management
As candidates complete a Typeform job application, tray.ai creates a Trello card for each applicant in your hiring board, attaching their name, role, and qualifying answers as card details and custom fields. Cards can be automatically sorted into lists by role or department, giving hiring managers a live view of the applicant pool. No more digging through form export files to figure out who applied for what.
Use case
Bug and Issue Reporting
When users or QA testers submit a bug report via Typeform, tray.ai creates a Trello card in your development backlog with the issue title, description, severity level, and any screenshot URLs from the form. Cards can be labeled by priority and assigned to the relevant developer based on form responses. Your engineering team gets a clean, actionable backlog item without ever opening the form tool.
Use case
Event Registration Coordination
When attendees register through a Typeform form, tray.ai creates individual Trello cards or updates a master planning card with registration counts, dietary requirements, session preferences, and contact details. Event coordinators can track RSVPs, manage logistics, and assign follow-up tasks directly in Trello without exporting a single spreadsheet. As registrations come in, the board stays current.
Use case
Customer Feedback Triage
When customers submit feedback or satisfaction surveys through Typeform, tray.ai routes responses into Trello based on sentiment or score — creating cards in a 'Positive Feedback' list for promoters and a 'Needs Attention' list for detractors. Each card includes the customer's name, score, and verbatim feedback so your team can move quickly. High-priority feedback can be automatically assigned to a team lead for immediate follow-up.
Use case
Content Production Request Workflow
Content and marketing teams can use a Typeform brief submission form to kick off new content requests. When a form is submitted, tray.ai creates a Trello card in the content calendar board with the content type, topic, target audience, deadline, and linked assets — all pulled directly from the form fields. Writers and designers are assigned automatically based on content type, so the production queue stays current.
Use case
IT and Helpdesk Ticket Creation
Employees submitting IT support requests via an internal Typeform are automatically converted into Trello cards in your IT helpdesk board, with issue category, urgency level, and device details pre-filled. tray.ai assigns the card to the right IT team member based on issue type and sets a due date based on the stated urgency. IT teams get a prioritized, structured queue without any manual intake work.

Typeform & Trello Challenges
What challenges are there when working with Typeform & Trello and how will using Tray.ai help?
Challenge
Mapping Complex Form Fields to Trello Card Structure
Typeform responses can include dropdowns, file uploads, rating scales, and multi-select answers that don't map neatly to standard Trello card attributes like title, description, or due date. Building this mapping by hand — and redoing it every time a form changes — is slow and easy to get wrong.
How Tray.ai Can Help:
tray.ai has a visual data mapping interface that lets you match any Typeform field to the right Trello card attribute or custom field, regardless of field type. When a form changes, you can update the mapping in minutes without rebuilding the workflow from scratch.
Challenge
Conditional Routing to Multiple Boards or Lists
Teams often need Typeform submissions routed to different Trello boards or lists depending on department, urgency, or request type. Without automation, someone has to read each response and manually create or move cards to the right place — which is slow and introduces mistakes.
How Tray.ai Can Help:
tray.ai's conditional logic and branching let you define routing rules based on any Typeform answer. Whether you need five routing paths or fifteen, tray.ai evaluates the conditions and sends each card to the right destination.
Challenge
Handling High Volumes of Form Submissions
During campaigns, hiring surges, or product launches, Typeform can receive hundreds or thousands of submissions in a short window. Creating Trello cards manually at that volume isn't realistic, and batch processing can leave teams working from information that's already out of date.
How Tray.ai Can Help:
tray.ai processes Typeform webhook triggers in real time, so every submission generates a Trello card immediately — even during high-volume bursts. The platform handles enterprise-level event volumes without throttling or data loss.
Challenge
Keeping Trello Cards Updated When Typeform Responses Are Edited
Some Typeform workflows allow respondents to update their answers after submitting. Without automation, those edits are invisible to the Trello team unless someone manually checks the form and updates the card, which rarely happens consistently.
How Tray.ai Can Help:
tray.ai can listen for Typeform response update events and trigger a workflow that finds the existing Trello card and updates its fields to match the latest submission, so Trello stays in sync with the form.
Challenge
Avoiding Duplicate Cards from Repeat Submissions
When the same person submits a Typeform multiple times — or a form is re-submitted due to a technical issue — teams can end up with duplicate Trello cards that clutter boards and make it unclear which record is current.
How Tray.ai Can Help:
tray.ai workflows can include a deduplication step that searches the target Trello board for an existing card matching a unique identifier — such as email address or submission ID — before creating a new one. If a match is found, the workflow updates the existing card instead.
