Trello Integration
Connect Trello with AgencyPro to embed boards, cards, and lists directly in client portals. Share Kanban-style project progress visually without clients needing Trello accounts. Perfect for agencies that love Trello's simplicity and want clients to see progress in a visual, easy-to-understand format.
Why Connect Trello with AgencyPro?
AgencyPro is the full agency platform for client work. Trello is lightweight Kanban that some agencies still use for internal brainstorms, content calendars, or sprint planning that does not need to live in your full PM system. Embedding a Trello board inside the AgencyPro client portal lets clients see Kanban progress visually (To Do → In Progress → Review → Done) without needing a Trello login or learning another tool. Trello has declined in agency use since the Atlassian acquisition, and most agencies eventually consolidate to AgencyPro for billable client work. If you are evaluating that move, see [AgencyPro vs ClickUp](/comparisons/agencypro-vs-clickup) (the closest Trello-style alternative we compare against). If you keep Trello for lightweight internal work, embedding the board keeps your client portal in sync with your team boards.
Key Features
Benefits for Your Agency
How Agencies Use Trello with AgencyPro
Content production pipeline visibility
A content agency embeds a Trello board showing articles moving from "Draft" to "Editing" to "Client Review" to "Published". Clients see exactly where their content is in the pipeline anytime.
Design sprint progress for creative clients
A design agency uses Trello for sprints with lists like "Concept", "In Design", "Client Feedback", "Revisions", "Approved". Embedding this in the portal gives clients transparency into the design process.
Development ticket tracking for technical clients
A dev agency embeds a Trello board showing dev tickets with columns for "Backlog", "In Dev", "In QA", "Deployed". Technical clients appreciate the detailed Kanban visibility.
How to Set Up Trello
- In Trello, open the board and set it to Public (or use the board's share link)
- Copy the board's shareable URL
- In AgencyPro, go to Settings → Extensions → Add extension
- Choose a Custom Iframe extension and give it a label like "Project Board"
- Paste the Trello board link, choose the client or team it should appear for, and save
- The board appears as a tab in the portal and updates as cards move
Frequently Asked Questions
Do clients need Trello accounts to view embedded boards?
No. The board renders directly in the AgencyPro portal — clients never interact with Trello itself. This keeps your workflow intact while avoiding Trello license costs for clients.
Can I hide certain cards or lists from clients?
Trello boards embed as a whole, so use a dedicated client-facing board (organized with the lists and labels you want clients to see) to keep internal cards off the shared board.
Does the embed support Trello Power-Ups?
Most Power-Ups that display visual information on cards (custom fields, calendar) appear in the embedded board. Power-Ups that require external interaction may have limited functionality.
How does this compare to the Asana integration?
Trello embeds as a visual board clients view in the portal. Asana connects through Zapier to sync task data into AgencyPro. Use Trello if you want clients to see a Kanban board; use Asana if you want task data flowing between the systems.
Can clients drag cards themselves?
Embedded boards are read-only for clients, which is ideal for showing progress without letting clients accidentally reorganize your team's workflow.
