Post-Integration Behaviour – Step-by-Step

Step 1: Task creation Flow

After successful integration, when you try to create a task in Workstatus,

• You will be redirected to Trello to create and manage the task.

Step 2: Integration direction (one-way sync)

This integration works in a one-way sync:

Tasks created in Trello will automatically sync to Workstatus

Synced tasks will be visible in Workstatus

Step 3: Task management (CRUD operation)

All task operations are controlled externally:

Create → Managed in Trello

Read/View → Redirected to Trello

Update → Managed in Trello

Delete → Managed in Trello

 If you try to:

View task details OR

Add/update anything from Workstatus

• You will be redirected to Trello

Step 4: Behaviour after disconnection

If the integration is disconnected:

All new operations will be handled directly in Workstatus

Step 5: Existing task after disconnection

For tasks created during integration:

• You cannot edit or update
• You cannot delete
• You can only mark them as complete

Same task status is in progress in Trello and you again Connect then complete task status will match with Trello task status
