# Connect Trello and ActiveCampaign

When **New card in list** fires in [Trello](https://apiant.ai/connections/trello), your agent runs **Add note to contact** in [ActiveCampaign](https://apiant.ai/connections/activecampaign), or **New deal** in ActiveCampaign to **Add Comment to Card** in Trello. Describe the whole flow and it is built, tested on every scenario and kept running.

Trello **6** triggers Trello **112** actions ActiveCampaign **19** triggers ActiveCampaign **84** actions

What the catalog holds today. Ask for anything missing and your agent reads the API documentation and adds it.

## What do you want Trello and ActiveCampaign to do together?

Give your AI client this address.

`https://mcp.apiant.ai`

One connection does both: ask your client to act in an app once, or have it build an automation that keeps running. Any client that takes a remote MCP server. Nothing to install. Create your free account, then sign in once in your browser.

### Set it up in your client

### Claude Code

Run this in the directory you want to work in.

`claude mcp add --transport http -s project apiant-ai https://mcp.apiant.ai`

Start Claude Code there, approve the server, and sign in in the browser page it opens.

[Claude Code guide (opens in a new tab)](https://apiant.ai/docs/mcp/claude-code)

### Claude, web and desktop

Open Customize, then Connectors, then Add custom connector, and paste the address. On Team and Enterprise an owner adds it first.

[Setup guide (opens in a new tab)](https://apiant.ai/docs/mcp)

### Cursor

Add the address to your MCP configuration as a server URL. Cursor signs you in in your browser.

[Setup guide (opens in a new tab)](https://apiant.ai/docs/mcp)

### Zed

Open Settings, then AI, then MCP Servers, then Add Server, then Add Remote Server.

[Setup guide (opens in a new tab)](https://apiant.ai/docs/mcp)

### Codex and the ChatGPT desktop app

Open Settings, then MCP servers, then Add server, and choose Streamable HTTP. From the terminal, Codex takes the address with its own add command and then signs you in.

[Setup guide (opens in a new tab)](https://apiant.ai/docs/mcp)

### Any other MCP client

Paste the address where the client asks for a remote MCP server URL, and name the server apiant-ai where it lets you. APIANT's skills reach the client over the same connection.

ActiveCampaign holds the contacts, deals and tasks; Trello holds the boards your team actually works from. Connecting them means a new deal or a tag in ActiveCampaign can open the right Trello card, and card activity in Trello can come back as notes and tasks on the deal or contact. Both sides stay readable without anyone retyping details.

Questions

## Trello and ActiveCampaign, answered

###

### Can a Trello card be created automatically when a deal is won or a contact is tagged?

Yes. The "New deal" and "Tag added to contact" triggers in ActiveCampaign can feed the "Create Card" action in Trello, with the deal or contact details in the card name and description. You can search Trello with "Find boards by name" first so the card lands on the right board.

###

### Does work happening in Trello show up back in ActiveCampaign?

It can. Trello triggers like "New card in list" and "New comment on any card within board" can run ActiveCampaign actions such as "Add task", "Add note to contact" or "Create a deal note". That way the sales record reflects what the board shows.

###

### What can start an automation from Trello?

Any of Trello's 6 triggers in the catalog, including New card in list, New comment on any card within board, New board and New card assigned to me. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.

###

### What can your agent do in ActiveCampaign when something happens in Trello?

Any of ActiveCampaign's 84 actions, including Add note to contact, Add task, Create abandoned cart and Create account association. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.

###

### Can it also run from ActiveCampaign to Trello?

Yes. When something happens in ActiveCampaign, your agent can act in Trello too. This page covers both directions: ActiveCampaign's triggers and Trello's actions are listed here as well.

###

### Do I have to build a connector for Trello or ActiveCampaign?

No. Both are in the catalog with their triggers and actions. You describe the automation; your agent builds it, tests every scenario and keeps it running.

###

### Can my AI client use Trello and ActiveCampaign without building an automation?

Yes. With your AI client connected to APIANT, ask it to do something in either app once and it runs that action on the spot. Ask for an automation and your agent builds it, tests every scenario and keeps it running. One connection covers both.

###

### What happens when something fails?

Your agent works that out for you. It plans the failure paths along with the happy path, then tests every scenario before it ships.

###

### Is there a free plan?

Yes. Every plan includes the agent, including free, and building from your own AI client spends no assistant credits.
