Turn videoask responses into cards on your Trello board with Zapier

Take a to-do item off your list by setting up an automation to turn your videoask responses into cards on your Trello board. In this guide, we’ll walk you through how to set up this automation with Zapier.

If you’ve never used Trello before, it’s a work management tool to organize tasks and manage projects with your team. You can create cards for each task that needs to be done. Learn how you can get started with Trello here.

Every time someone responds to your videoask, it’ll automatically create a new card in your Trello board with a link to view their responses.

In our example below, we’ll create a new card in our Trello board when someone responds to our recruitment videoask. Our recruiters can go through the list of candidates in Trello to view their responses and manage the status of each candidate.

Before we get started, here’s what you’ll need to set up this workflow:

  • A VideoAsk account
  • A Trello account
  • A Zapier account

Note: Free plans are available for these tools.

⚠️ Important: Before starting, make sure to set all interactions as shareable so people are able to view the responses.
