Authorization

Basic Auth

The Trello API supports basic OAuth 1.0; as described in the following section from their guide. You can use an OAuth library and the following URLs:

https://trello.com/1/OAuthGetRequestToken
https://trello.com/1/OAuthAuthorizeToken
https://trello.com/1/OAuthGetAccessToken

For more information visit Trello basic Authorization, When a user creates the Trello app, they must be sure to enter Sapper's callback URL - Sapper -as a Callback URL.

To create an OAuth 1.1 connection, You’ll also need your application secret (used to sign your requests). This application secret is involved with a client_id and client_secret pair for Trello. To get these, login to Trello and go to https://trello.com/app-key.

The client_id value will be the Key value found on this page.

The client_secret value will be found by clicking the Token URL found on that page. This will prompt you to give access to the Trello Server Token application. Granting access will display the value to use.

Once you have an API key and a user's token, you can pass authorization information to Trello in one of three ways:

Query parameters
Authorization header
PUT/POST body

Query Parameters Authorization

The easiest and quickest way to conduct the authorization to Trello is via query parameters.

You can include a key= and token= query parameter in your request.

For instance, here is a simple request passing authorization via query parameters:

Copy1
curl https://api.trello.com/1/members/me?key={{apiKey}}&token={{apiToken}}

Authorization header

You can also authorization via an Authorization header in Trello with the format: OAuth oauth_consumer_key="{{apiKey}}", oauth_token="{{apiToken}}".

For instance, here is the same request as above, but using an Authorization header:

Copy1
curl -H "Authorization: OAuth oauth_consumer_key=\"{{apiKey}}\", oauth_token=\"{{apiToken}}\"" https://api.trello.com/1/members/me

PUT/POST Body

If you want to make a PUT or POST request to Trello's API, you may also include the key and token in the request's body:

Copy1
2
3
4
curl -X PUT \
https://api.trello.com/1/cards/5e568d33e9b5e88bb99996d0/name \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"key": "{{apiKey}}", "token": "{{apiToken}}", "value": "Finish Final Presentation" }'
