Getting your Trello API key and token

Before you can import your Trello boards, you need to get your Trello API key and token. Follow these steps (only takes a couple of minutes):

  1. Sign in to your Trello account
    Go to https://trello.com and log in with your Trello account.

  2. Create a new integration
    Visit https://trello.com/power-ups/admin. Click Create new and fill in the following details:

    • Name: Choose a name for your integration (e.g. “Kan Import”)
    • Workspace: Select the workspace containing the boards you want to import
    • Email: Enter your email address
    • Support email: Enter your email address
    • Author: Add your name

  3. Get a Trello API Key
    Now click Generate a new API key to create an API key.

  4. Generate a Trello Token
    On the same page (to the right of the API key), click the link to generate a Token. Approve the permissions and copy your token (make sure to save it somewhere secure like a password manager).
