Migrate to and from Trello
Boards, lists and cards out of Trello into Asana, ClickUp or Odoo's Project app, and projects from your other project tools into Trello boards. Not the files, Power-Up data or automations.
And into Trello: projects from Asana and ClickUp, as boards. What moves into Trello.

- Free under 5,000 records, then from $249.
- Moves

How Shuttio connects to Trello
What you click, what Shuttio is allowed to do, and how to end it.
Connect Trello
Press Connect Trello in the migration. Trello's own consent screen opens (OAuth 2.0), you choose Allow, and you are back in Shuttio. No key or password is pasted into Shuttio.
Moving out of Trello: read access
Shuttio asks to read your boards, your Workspaces and your member profile, and to keep that access while the run lasts. It never writes to Trello. It reads what the signed-in member may see, so use a member of every board you are moving.
Moving into Trello: write access
Shuttio also asks to create and change boards and their Workspaces. It asks for no permission to invite members, so nobody is invited and nobody is added to a board.
Ending the access
Shuttio deletes its copy of the access 14 days after the migration finishes. Trello gives no way to revoke it from outside, so to end it sooner, remove Shuttio in Trello under Settings, Applications.
What moves from Trello into Odoo
Each of these is written against the real API rather than a generic model, which is where the depth comes from. Import2 does not support Clarify or Odoo as a destination.
Boards
Every board the signed-in member sees, closed ones too. The name and description come across; the Trello workspace becomes a tag, and a closed board is marked archived (its stage, or a tag where Odoo has no project stages).
Lists
Each board's lists, in board order, become the task stages of its project in Odoo. An archived list is carried only while it holds cards, as "<name> (archived)"; an archived list with no cards is left out. Odoo's own default stages are taken off a project Shuttio creates, so its board is exactly yours.
Cards
Each card goes to its board's project and its list's stage, with its description, due date and labels (the label's name, or its colour when it has no name). A card whose due date is marked complete is marked done.
Archived cards
Carried, in the stage of their list, marked done and tagged "Archived in Trello". Trello does not say whether an archived card was finished, so it is closed rather than left open on the board.
Checklists
Added to the card description as a markdown task list, items checked or not as in Trello. Odoo gets no subtasks, because Trello has none.
Comments
Added to the end of the card description, oldest first, each with its author and date (up to 50 a card).
Members
The first member of a card becomes its assignee when the Odoo user with the same email exists. Trello shows other people's emails only to their own account and, in some workspaces, to its admins, so most cards stay unassigned; the member names are listed in the description when a card has several.
And on every migration
A free sample before the real run
A sample first (5% of your projects, 10 to 1,000 records, picked at random, with their tasks), written for real into the destination. You read it there, and nothing else is written until you approve the full run. A Trello board is a project here.
A receipt for every record
Every record has a row on the run page: written, skipped or failed, with the reason. A record that failed can be retried without writing the others twice.
Rolled back on request
Roll back removes what Shuttio created, in reverse order. Anything else in your workspace is never touched.
Move a free sample of your Trello data first (5% of your projects, with their tasks, 10 to 1,000 records) and check it in the destination. Nothing else is written until you approve.
Start a Trello migrationWhat moves from Trello into ClickUp
What each Trello object becomes depends on what Trello holds; every row below is something the ClickUp writer does.
Boards
Each board becomes a List in a Folder named "Shuttio import - Trello", inside the Space you pick on the connect step. A List with the same name there is reused, not duplicated.
Lists
ClickUp's API cannot create statuses. A card takes the Space's status with the same name as its Trello list when there is one; a done card takes the first closed status. Any list name with no matching status is written into the task description, and the board's lists are named in the List description.
Cards
Each card becomes a task with its description, due date and labels (as ClickUp tags).
Checklists
Added to the task description as a markdown task list, items checked or not as in Trello. ClickUp checklists are not written.
Comments
Added to the end of the task description, oldest first, each with its author and date. ClickUp's comment call cannot set an author or a date.
Members
The first member becomes the task's assignee when the Workspace member with the same email exists. Trello shares emails only sometimes, so most cards stay unassigned; a person without a match is named in the description.
Attachments (files on a card)
Doesn't moveTrello's OAuth 2.0 does not allow file downloads, and the ClickUp writer carries no files yet. Each file stays in Trello.
Custom fields, Power-Up data, Butler automations, votes, stickers, card covers
Doesn't moveClickUp's API cannot create custom fields, and the writer does not set one you made first. The rest has no ClickUp place.
Lists as statuses, where the Space has no status of that name
Doesn't moveClickUp's API cannot create statuses. The list name is written into the description so it is not lost.
Rate limits
Doesn't moveClickUp allows 100 requests a minute per token. Shuttio stays under that and pauses the run if ClickUp asks it to wait longer than a minute; Resume carries on.
What moves from Trello into Asana
What each Trello object becomes depends on what Trello holds; every row below is something the Asana writer does.
Boards
Each board becomes a project in the team you pick on the connect step (an Asana organization needs a team), or in the workspace itself. A project with the same name there is reused, not duplicated. A closed board is carried too.
Lists
Each list becomes a section of its project, in board order, and each card sits in the section of its list. An archived list is carried only while it holds cards, as "<name> (archived)".
Cards
Each card becomes a task with its description, due date and assignee. A card whose due date is marked complete, and an archived card, is a completed task.
Checklists
Each checklist item becomes a subtask of the card's task, done or not as in Trello. When a card has several checklists, the subtask name starts with "Checklist:".
Comments
Each comment becomes an Asana comment on the task. Asana sets the author (the connected user) and the date (the day of the move), so the first line of each comment reads "<author> · <original date>".
Custom fields
A Trello custom field (text, number, date, checkbox or list) is matched by name and type in your workspace, created when it is missing, added to the project and set on the task. Asana has no checkbox field, so a checkbox becomes a Yes/No choice.
Members
The first member of a card becomes the assignee when the Asana user with the same email exists. Trello shows other people's emails only to their own account and, in some workspaces, to its admins, so most cards stay unassigned.
Labels
Written into the task notes as a "From Trello" line, with the label's name or its colour when it has no name.
Attachments (files on a card)
Doesn't moveTrello's OAuth 2.0 does not allow file downloads: Trello answers 401 for a file with a valid token. Each file is listed as a failed row that names it, and stays in Trello. A link attachment goes into the task notes with its address.
Labels as Asana tags
Doesn't moveAsana's permission list has no delete scope for tags, so a rollback could not remove them. The labels go into the task notes instead.
Custom fields on a free Asana workspace
Doesn't moveAsana makes custom fields a paid feature and answers 402. When it does, every value goes into the task notes under "Moved from Trello", and the run shows one warning.
Comment author and date as real author and date
Doesn't moveAsana sets both itself. They are the first line of the comment text.
Power-Up data, Butler automations, votes, stickers, card covers, board backgrounds
Doesn't moveAsana has no place for them, and Shuttio does not read them. Activity history other than comments is not read either.
Custom fields Shuttio created, after a rollback
Doesn't moveAsana's API has no delete for a custom field. A rollback removes the tasks, comments, files, sections and projects Shuttio created, leaves the fields, and names them.
Rate limits
Doesn't moveAsana allows 150 requests a minute on a free workspace. Shuttio stays under that, so a large board takes a while, and pauses the run if Asana asks it to wait longer than a minute; Resume carries on.
What moves into Trello
Projects and tasks from Asana and ClickUp become boards and cards in the Trello Workspace you pick. Every row below is something the Trello writer does.
Projects
Each project becomes a board in the Workspace you pick on the connect step. A board with the same name in that Workspace is reused, not duplicated, and Shuttio says so on the run.
Sections and statuses
Each section or status becomes a list, in the source's order. A task with no section goes to a list named "Done" when it is finished and "Imported" when it is not.
Tasks
Each task becomes a card in the list of its section, with its description and due date. A finished task has its due date marked complete.
Subtasks
Each subtask becomes an item of a "Subtasks" checklist on its parent card, done or not as in the source. A subtask of a subtask is an item named "parent > child" on the top card.
Labels
Tags become Trello labels. A priority becomes a label named "Priority: <value>". Shuttio picks the label colours.
Due dates
Carried as the card's due date. A date alone is set to noon UTC, so no time zone moves it to another day.
Assignees
Set as a card member only when the person is already a member of the board and Trello shows their email. Otherwise the name goes into the card description. Nobody is invited.
Anything Trello has no place for
Written into the card description, ending in a line "Shuttio import <migration>:<id>". A run again finds the cards by that line, so nothing is written twice.
Comments as Trello comments
Doesn't moveTrello's comment call takes text only, with no author and no date, and the source readers deliver comments inside the task description. They arrive there as text.
Files and custom fields
Doesn't moveNo source delivers them to this writer yet, and Trello's custom fields need the Custom Fields Power-Up on the board.
Inviting people to a board
Doesn't moveShuttio never calls Trello's add-member call and asks for no membership permission. A person who is not on the board is named in the card.
Lists on rollback
Doesn't moveTrello's API cannot delete a list. A rollback deletes the cards and labels Shuttio created and the boards it created when they hold nothing else, and archives the lists it added to a board that already existed.
Free Workspace limit
Doesn't moveA free Trello Workspace holds 10 open boards. When Trello refuses the eleventh, that project fails with Trello's reason and a hint. Archive a board or upgrade the Workspace, then Retry.
Descriptions over 16,384 characters
Doesn't moveTrello holds 16,384 characters in a description. The source text is cut and a note says so; the details Shuttio adds and the final import line are never cut.
Rate limits
Doesn't moveTrello's limits under OAuth 2.0 are not documented. Shuttio waits 250 milliseconds between calls and pauses the run after three refusals; Resume carries on.
6 things that don’t move into Odoo
Each is a ceiling in an API, not a feature we haven't written yet. You'd find them on day two, so read them now.
Custom fields, Butler automations, other Power-Up data, votes, stickers, card covers
Doesn't moveThey have no place in the Project app, or the Odoo writer does not carry them yet.
Attachments (files on a card)
Doesn't moveTrello's OAuth 2.0 does not allow file downloads: Trello answers 401 for a file with a valid token. Each file is listed on the run as a failed row that names it, and stays in Trello; download it there and attach it by hand.
Activity history
Doesn't moveOnly comments are read; moves between lists and other card activity are not.
Rich text formatting
Doesn't moveDescriptions and comments are carried as the plain Markdown Trello stores.
Odoo without the Project app
Doesn't moveThe Objects step hides the objects and says so; install Project in Odoo and run again.
Rate limits
Doesn't moveTrello allows 100 requests every 10 seconds per token. Shuttio stays under that and pauses the run if Trello asks it to slow down for longer than a minute; Resume carries on.
