The most interesting feature is attaching Slack conversations to a Trello card. For teams that use both products there is a tension between where conversations want to happen (Slack) and where project artifacts need to live (Trello). So it's great to see something that brings them together. I do wonder if users on my team, and others, will be diligent about … See more

@mvboeke This has been my favorite feature. Alongside minimizing context switching between Trello and Slack one of our goals for the app was to make it super easy to add context to cards, especially when there's a conversation in Slack that leads to a Trello card.

@hamidp Does this require a Trello Business account? And what is the difference between the Business account Trello integration and this new Trello for Slack? Thanks

@thomas_tomhawk_burningham This works for all teams, free and paid. Paid teams get access to a Power-Ups which extend Trello as a platform and pull in data from other other sources. So you can use the Trello app for Slack completely free, and if you want the Power-Up it's paid. We're planning on merging it all together at some point as well.

@hamidp @mvboeke silly question perhaps, but where / how does one 'attach' a Slack conversation to a Trello card?
Hamid Palo@hamidp · Dir. Product - Partnerships @ Trello
@lee_stuttaford @mvboeke There's an Attach Conversation button that basically attaches a link to the message where the card was sent. Gives you context around conversations. So say you paste a link to a card and then a conversation about it happens. You want to note that conversation somehow for future reference - just click Attach Conversation

@hamidp @mvboeke Found it, thanks! (Had to activate the app on Trello too, to see it)

@hamidp Enjoying the new app so far, but one thing that could stand improvement is the install process. I think I had to go through 4 authentication dialogs before everything was up and running. I'm not sure if that's an artifact of having multiple connections via the Slack app and Trello Powerup.
