How to connect Salesforce to Trello
What you'll need
- An active Salesforce account with API access enabled
- An active Trello account
- A free Arahi AI account (sign up takes 30 seconds)
- Admin or API access in Salesforce to authorize the connection
Create your Arahi AI account
Sign up at app.arahi.ai — it takes 30 seconds and starts a 7-day free trial.
Authenticate Salesforce
Grant Arahi read/write access to your contacts, deals, and pipeline data. You choose which objects the integration can access.
Authenticate Trello
Grant Arahi access to your workspaces, databases, pages, and tasks. You select which workspaces the integration can read and write to.
Choose your trigger
Select the event that starts your workflow. Popular triggers include: new contact created in salesforce or new item created in trello.
Configure the action
Define what happens when the trigger fires — for example, create item in trello. Map the data fields between Salesforce and Trello.
Test and activate
Run a test to confirm data flows correctly between Salesforce and Trello, then toggle the workflow on. It runs 24/7 with automatic retries and error monitoring.
Why connect Salesforce and Trello?
Manually moving data between Salesforce and Trello is error-prone and eats into your team's productive hours. Connecting them through Arahi eliminates that overhead — events in one app trigger actions in the other automatically.
- Auto-create Trello tasks when Salesforce deals move to a new stage
- Keep Trello project boards aligned with your Salesforce sales pipeline
- Assign Trello onboarding tasks the moment a Salesforce deal is marked won
- Give your delivery team Trello visibility into Salesforce deal context without CRM access

Frequently asked questions
- How do I connect Salesforce to Trello?
- Sign up for a free Arahi AI account, then click "Add Connection" to authenticate both Salesforce and Trello via OAuth. Choose a workflow template — like syncing crm events to productivity actions — customize the field mapping, and activate. The entire setup takes under 5 minutes.
- What can I automate between Salesforce and Trello?
- You can automate a wide range of workflows: sync new Salesforce events to Trello actions, trigger Trello updates when Salesforce data changes, create Trello records from Salesforce events, and build conditional workflows with filters and field mapping. Each workflow runs 24/7 with automatic retries.
- Is the Salesforce and Trello integration free?
- Arahi AI includes 100 free actions per month on the Starter plan — enough for most small teams. If your Salesforce-to-Trello workflows need more volume, paid plans start at $49/month with unlimited workflows and priority execution.
- Is my Salesforce data secure when connected to Trello?
- Yes. Arahi uses OAuth 2.0 for authentication — we never store your Salesforce or Trello passwords. All data is encrypted in transit (TLS 1.3) and at rest (AES-256). Your crm data is only accessed when a workflow runs, and you can revoke access at any time from your Arahi dashboard.
- Can I sync data both ways between Salesforce and Trello?
- Yes. You can set up workflows that trigger from either Salesforce or Trello. For example, create a workflow where Salesforce events update Trello, and a separate one where Trello changes sync back to Salesforce. Each direction is configured independently so you have full control.
- Do I need technical skills to connect Salesforce and Trello?
- No coding is required. Arahi's visual workflow builder lets you configure triggers, actions, and field mapping with clicks. If you can use Salesforce and Trello, you can set up the integration. Most users are running their first workflow within 10 minutes.
