Trello Integration
Trello is a visual project management tool that organizes tasks and workflows using boards, lists, and cards. The Invicti AppSec integration with Trello allows security teams to create Trello cards directly from discovered vulnerabilities, enabling lightweight tracking of security remediation tasks within Trello boards.
Purpose in Invicti AppSec
Trello is used in Invicti AppSec as an Issue Manager — a tool for creating and tracking vulnerability remediation tasks in Trello boards.
| Use Case | Description |
|---|---|
| Card creation from vulnerabilities | Create Trello cards directly from vulnerability findings in Invicti AppSec |
| Remediation tracking | Track security issue remediation using Trello's Kanban-style boards |
| Team collaboration | Assign Trello cards to team members responsible for fixing security vulnerabilities |

Prerequisites
Before activating the integration, gather the following credentials from your Trello account:
| Field | Description | Required |
|---|---|---|
| API Key | Your Trello Power-Up API key, generated from the Trello developer portal | Yes |
| Token | A Trello user token that grants access to your boards and workspaces | Yes |
| URL | Your Trello API base URL (typically https://api.trello.com) | Yes |
Obtain Credentials (on the Trello Side)
API Key:
- Log in to Trello and go to the Trello Developer Portal at
https://trello.com/power-ups/admin. - Create a new Power-Up (or use an existing one) and navigate to its API Key section.
- Copy the API Key displayed on the page.
Token:
- On the same Power-Up API Key page, click the Token link next to the API key.
- Trello will ask you to authorize the Power-Up and generate a token.
- Copy the generated token — store it securely as it grants access to your Trello workspace.
URL:
- The Trello API base URL is
https://api.trello.com. - Use this URL unless your organization uses a custom Trello deployment.
Use a dedicated Trello account or Power-Up for Invicti AppSec to avoid disruptions if personal credentials change.
