When a GitLab issue is completed, you can archive the card in Trello to prevent any updates from being missed.
This flow is recommended for those who want to manage progress accurately.
Let's get started with creating a flow that integrates GitLab and Trello!
This time, we will proceed with the integration of GitLab and Trello using Yoom without any code, so if you do not have a Yoom account yet, please issue one from this registration form.
[What is Yoom]
This time, we will create a flow bot that creates a card in Trello when an issue is created in GitLab!
The creation process is broadly divided into the following steps.
First, register My Apps to connect GitLab and Trello with Yoom.
Completing the My Apps registration in advance makes it easier to proceed with automation settings.
Let's proceed with the settings!
Click "My Apps" → "Add" on the left side of the Yoom screen.
How to Connect GitLab
A list of apps will be displayed, so find GitLab from there or use the search function.
Once the following screen is displayed, log in to GitLab.
How to Connect Trello
Similarly, find Trello from the list or use the search function.
Once the following screen is displayed, configure the settings within the red frame.
For instructions on how to register My Apps for Trello, please check here.
Check the "API Key" and "Access Token" from the Trello screen.
If GitLab and Trello are displayed in your My Apps section, the registration is complete.
Now, let's proceed with the automation settings!
Log in to Yoom and click "Try it" on the banner below.
The template will be automatically copied, and the following screen will be displayed.
The template will be automatically stored in a project called "My Project," so if you want to check it, please do so from there.
Read the following screen display and click "OK."
When the following screen is displayed, please check the "Title."
You can also change the title to make it easier to use.
First, to set the flow bot to start when a GitLab issue is created, click "When an issue is created."
The following screen will be displayed, so check the settings.
If necessary, modify the title to something easy to understand, and if there are no issues with the account information, click "Next."
Once confirmed, move to the screen and create an issue in GitLab for testing.
The following is an example, so please set it as you like.
After creating a new issue, return to Yoom's settings and set the "Trigger Interval."
*Please note that the trigger interval varies depending on the plan.
Scroll and select the "Project ID" from the options.
The candidates will be displayed when you click inside the frame.
Once the setup is complete, click "Test."
If the test is successful, you can retrieve the information of the created issue.
Below that, "Retrieved value" will be displayed.
Retrieved value will be used in the subsequent settings, so please check for any mistakes.
Once confirmed, click "Save."
Next, to set up creating a card in Trello, click "Create a new card."
The following screen will be displayed, so please check the settings.
As with the initial setup, if necessary, modify the title and check the account information, then proceed to "Next."
When the following screen is displayed, please set the "Board ID" according to the instructions.
Scroll and select the "List ID" from the options.
The candidates will be displayed when you click inside the frame.
Next, set the "Title."
Select "Title" from the retrieved value from GitLab.
The retrieved values will be displayed when you click the arrow inside the red frame.
If you want to set "Due Date" or "Description," set them in the same way.
Once the setup is complete, click "Test."
If the test is successful, "Test Successful" will be displayed, so click "Save."
When you move to Trello, a card should have been created as shown below!
Next, to set up updating the issue in GitLab, click "Update Issue."
Here, we will set it up so that the card ID obtained in Trello can be automatically shared and reflected in GitLab.
The following screen will be displayed, so check the settings.
If there are no issues, click "Next."
When the following screen is displayed, select the "Project ID" from the options.
Next, set the "Issue IID."
Select "IID" from the retrieved value of "When an issue is created."
Scroll and set the "Issue Description."
Select "Description" from the retrieved value of GitLab and "Card ID" from retrieved value of Trello.
This will display the description and card ID in the description field of the GitLab issue.
Once the setup is complete, click "Test."
If the test is successful, "Test Successful" will be displayed, so click "Save."
When you move to the GitLab screen, the description and card ID should have been updated as shown below!
All items have been set up here!
The following screen will be displayed, and once you click "Turn on Trigger," the automation setup will be complete.
Check if the flow bot you set up is working properly!
