Connect GitHub to Trello — No Code Required
Automate the handoff between GitHub and Trello using plain English. Describe what you want to happen and Vendarwon Flow builds and runs the workflow automatically — forever, in real time, without developer help.
Why teams connect GitHub to Trello
Code and tasks are two sides of the same work. Connecting GitHub to Trello keeps them synchronised automatically — new issues become tasks, PR merges update the right records, and your project board reflects the actual state of development without anyone doing double-entry.
New emails, form submissions, and leads automatically create Trello cards with all the details filled in
Cards move to the right list automatically when status changes in your CRM or other tools
Trello card updates trigger Slack messages or emails automatically — no manual status sharing needed
What you can automate between GitHub and Trello
When a new commit arrives in GitHub, automatically create a card on a board in Trello — no manual work, no delay
Route specific GitHub commits from key sources and move a card to a list in Trello the moment they arrive
Build a scheduled digest: collect GitHub activity over time and add a comment to a card in Trello on a daily or weekly schedule
When a high-priority commit is detected in GitHub, attach data to a card in Trello with all the relevant context included
Filter GitHub commits by keyword, sender, or category — then create a card on a board in Trello only for the ones that matter
Create a two-way feedback loop: every qualifying commit in GitHub triggers a record in Trello that your team can track and act on
What you stop doing manually
GitHub is valuable — but without automation, it creates repetitive manual work. Here is what teams eliminate the moment they connect GitHub to Trello:
Manually posting GitHub PR status or deployment news to Slack or team channels after each event
Creating project management tasks by hand every time a new GitHub issue is opened
Notifying stakeholders about releases by manually sending emails or Slack messages
How to set it up in 3 steps
Connect GitHub and Trello
Go to the Integrations tab in Vendarwon Flow and authorise both GitHub and Trello. Each takes under 2 minutes — just click Authorise and follow the prompts. No API keys to configure manually, no webhooks to set up.
Describe your automation in plain English
Click New Workflow and type what you want to happen. For example: "When there is a new commit pushed in GitHub, automatically create a card on a board in Trello with all the relevant details included." The AI reads your description and builds the complete workflow — triggers, actions, conditions, and all.
Activate and it runs forever
Review the workflow in the visual editor, adjust any details, then click Activate. From that moment, every qualifying commit in GitHub automatically triggers the right action in Trello — no manual steps, no missed triggers, no babysitting required.

About GitHub and Trello
GitHub
Developer
GitHub hosts over 100 million repositories and is where engineering teams spend most of their working day. The challenge is connecting GitHub activity — commits, pull requests, issues, deployments — to the non-engineering tools the rest of your company uses.
Available triggers
- new commit pushed
- pull request opened or merged
- new issue created
- deployment completed
Available actions
- create an issue
- add a comment to a PR
- trigger a repository dispatch
- log a deployment event
Trello
Project Management
Trello is the visual project management tool with over 50 million users who rely on its simple card-based interface. The challenge every Trello team faces: boards fill up only when someone manually creates cards — so work that comes in through email, forms, or other tools often never gets tracked.
Available triggers
- new card created
- card moved to another list
- card due date reached
Available actions
- create a card on a board
- move a card to a list
- add a comment to a card
- attach data to a card
Frequently asked questions
Does GitHub have a native Trello integration?
GitHub and Trello do not have a built-in direct integration that covers most real automation scenarios. Vendarwon Flow acts as the bridge — you describe what you want in plain English and it handles the API connections between both tools securely. No Zapier account, no developer, no webhook configuration needed.
What GitHub events can trigger the automation?
With Vendarwon Flow you can trigger automation from any of these GitHub events: New commit pushed; pull request opened or merged; new issue created; deployment completed. You can also combine triggers — for example, only fire the automation when a commit matches a specific keyword or comes from a particular source.
What can the automation do inside Trello?
Once triggered, the workflow can perform any of these actions in Trello: Create a card on a board; move a card to a list; add a comment to a card; attach data to a card. You can chain multiple actions together — for example, create a card on a board and then move a card to a list.
How quickly does the automation run after something happens in GitHub?
In real time — typically within a few seconds of the triggering event. Vendarwon Flow runs continuously in the cloud, so there is no polling delay. The moment a new commit meets your conditions in GitHub, the workflow fires and the action in Trello happens instantly, whether it is 2 PM or 2 AM.
Does the automation work with private repositories and internal tooling?
Yes. When you authorise GitHub in Vendarwon Flow, it works with all repositories and projects your account has access to — including private ones. The connection is secured with OAuth and your credentials are stored encrypted. You choose which repository or project to monitor when you set up the workflow.
