How does Flow connect to Trello?

I cannot find any reference for this in my connector. Does Flow use an API key or OAuth to connect to Trello? If it uses an API key, how can I find the key value?

Hi @Anonymous,

Do you want to connect to Trello connector within your flow?

Currently, Flow use a Basic Authentication to connect to Trello connector. If you want to connect to Trello connector within Microsoft Flow, please take a try with the following steps:

Sign up a Trello account in Trello web portal.

Create a flow on your side, within the flow, add a Trello trigger or action. If you connect to Trello connector first time, this connector would ask you to sign in:

Click "Sign in" button, within the pop-up window, type your username and password that you Sign up at Step1, then click "Log in":

The pop-up window would prompt you that, you need to assign access permission to Microsoft Flow. Please click "Allow" button.

Then you have made a connection to the Trello connector within your flow.

Maybe you want to add a new connection to the Trello connector within your flow, please take a try to click "Menu" button within the Trello trigger or action, then click "Add a new connection" button:

More details about adding a connection within Microsoft Flow, please check the following article:

Best regards,

Kris

Hi Kris,

Thanks for the reply. I've already created a connection but sometimes I get an error that my flow has exceeded the Trello API rate limit. I don't understand how that's possible given that I am far from making 300 requests every 10 seconds. I'm troubleshooting with Trello support now and they asked for my API key. But I can't find it. So are you saying Flow usings OAuth to connect to Trello?
