To create Trello cards for new Instagram posts automatically, you need to use Pabbly Connect. Start by signing up for a free account on the Pabbly Connect website. This platform allows you to automate workflows without any coding, making it user-friendly.

Once signed up, log in to your Pabbly Connect dashboard. Here, click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button. Name your workflow, for instance, ‘Instagram to Trello Integration’, and click on the ‘Create’ button to proceed. This sets the stage for the automation process.

2. Configuring the Instagram Trigger in Pabbly Connect

In this step, you will set up Instagram as the trigger application in Pabbly Connect. Search for the Instagram application and select ‘Instagram for Business’ as the trigger. Choose the trigger event as ‘New Media Posted in My Account’. This means that every time you post new content on Instagram, it will trigger the workflow.

• Select ‘Connect’ to link your Instagram account.
• Click on ‘Add New Connection’ to authenticate your Instagram account.
• Allow Pabbly Connect to access your Instagram account by clicking ‘Continue’.

Once connected, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to fetch details from your most recent Instagram post. This step ensures that Pabbly Connect successfully retrieves the data needed for the next action.

3. Creating a Trello Card with Pabbly Connect

Now that you have configured Instagram as the trigger, it’s time to set up Trello as the action application in Pabbly Connect. Search for Trello and select it, then choose the action event as ‘Create a Card’. This action will create a new card in Trello for every new Instagram post.

Click on ‘Connect’ and select ‘Add New Connection’. You will need to enter your Trello username, API key, and API token. These details can be found in your Trello account settings. Once you have entered the necessary information, click ‘Save’ to establish the connection.

• Choose your Trello board where the card will be created.
• Select the list within the board where the card should be added.
• Map the Instagram post details such as caption and media link to the Trello card fields.

After mapping the required fields, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to create the Trello card. You should see the new card appear in your selected Trello list.

4. Finalizing Your Instagram to Trello Automation

With both the Instagram trigger and Trello action set up in Pabbly Connect, your automation is almost complete. Review the details you have configured to ensure everything is correct. This includes the Instagram account connection and the Trello card settings.

Once you are satisfied with the setup, activate your workflow in Pabbly Connect. This will allow the automation to run continuously, creating a new Trello card every time you post on Instagram. You will not need to perform any manual tasks after this setup.

To verify the automation, create a new post on Instagram. After posting, check your Trello board to see if the card has been created automatically. This real-time automation will streamline your social media management.
