Q & A

How to find the ID or the shortlink of a card in Trello

If you want to edit a card or create a new comment, you need to know the ID of the card or its shortlink. You can get this information from the output of the New Card trigger. The shortlink for a card can also be obtained by opening the card and clicking on the Share button. The shortlink can be found in the Link to this card box, at the end of the URL after https://trello.com/c/.

How to find other IDs

Board, list and comment IDs can only be obtained using triggers. The trello.com website does not show these IDs.
