Parsed data to Trello card fields

I am using Zapier and trying to get a parsed email (with Email Parser by Zapier) into a new Trello card with field values populated.

*  Email parser by Zapier is configured correctly.  (I think).  I have fields defined, and they are available in the Trello action step.

*  I have created a card template in Trello, with fields named the same.

*  In my Zap, I can create a Trello card with the parsed data values,.  I Don't know how to use the template card and map the Zapier email parsed fields to the template fields.

 

Can anyone help or point me to an example?

Hi @DLucarelli 

Good question.

You’ll essentially have to recreate the Trello template card using this Zap action: Trello - Create Card

I have done some iterative testing.

I don’t see a way for Zapier to populate custom fields in a Trello card, where the field values have been extracted with Email Parser for Zap.

 

--OR--  How can I add a <CR>  between fields when I am sending the data to Trello?  Currently, it is sent like this:

[fmame][lname][telephone][email][content]

Rather than

[fname][lname]

[telephone]

[email]

[content]

 

--OR--  can another tool (such as Parseur) populate custom fields in a Trello card?
