Trello is a collaboration tool that organizes your projects into boards. It tells you what’s being worked on, who’s working on what, and where something is in a process.

This integration makes it easy to sync your Trello boards with Float and drag and drop cards directly onto your teams' schedules to assign them as tasks.

The Account Owner can set up and manage the Trello integration in Team settings > Integrations.

Once you click Connect, you will need to Allow Trello to access your Float account.

Specify the people and boards you want to import to finalize the integration setup. All existing boards and members are imported to Float by default. If you want to import only specific boards, click Select boards. You can also choose to Connect boards added to Trello in the future.

💡 Here's a tip: You can disconnect individual projects similarly.

Trello Members will be automatically added to your Float schedule as people and matched with their assigned cards to make scheduling easy. They won’t be invited to use Float just yet, but you can give them access rights at any time. You can also choose to Import members added to Trello in the future.

To schedule your Trello cards, click the Integrations icon in the top right corner of the Schedule to open the integrations sidebar.

Scroll or search for the card you'd like to add, and then drag and drop it onto a team member's schedule to allocate a new Float task.

Task hours are determined based on the person's individual work hours for the day. If they normally work 8 hours, the task will also be 8 hours long. If they work 4 hours on Fridays, any task you schedule on Friday will be 4 hours long, etc.

💡 Here's a tip: You can adjust any task directly on the Schedule by dragging it horizontally to increase its days or vertically to decrease its hours.

Your Trello cards can be scheduled as often as you'd like and do not disappear from the sidebar. Once a card has been scheduled in Float, a white dot appears next to it on the sidebar to make it easy to identify.

Changes you make in Trello are reflected on the sidebar but do not impact tasks you’ve already scheduled. The same is true when editing tasks on the schedule - for example,  if you edit the name of a scheduled task, it will not change the card's name on the sidebar.

You can collapse boards to hide their cards or use the search to quickly find the board, card, or assignee you are looking for.

💡 Here's a tip: Any task you create can be viewed directly in Trello by opening the task menu and clicking View in Trello.

Synced projects are easily identified in Float by the sync icon on the Projects page.

You can also log time using cards from the sidebar. Just drag and drop a card onto a team member's schedule when in the Log team view, and the hours are recorded instantly.

Task hours for time tracking are based on the last hour setting used in the Log team view (rather than the person's maximum work hours for the day).

You can easily adjust the logged time by dragging it vertically to decrease/increase its hours. 

To disconnect Trello, navigate to Team settings > Integrations > Edit > Disconnect Trello.
