When Trello and CompanyCam operate independently, project managers often find themselves manually transferring photo documentation from CompanyCam to Trello task cards. For instance, if a team member captures site photos in CompanyCam but fails to link them to the corresponding Trello card, critical visual context is lost. This leads to project delays as team members waste time searching for images or re-uploading them, ultimately impacting project timelines and accountability.

Top Ways to Automate Trello & CompanyCam

  • Automated Task Creation: Instantly create Trello cards from CompanyCam photos, ensuring that every visual documentation is linked to actionable tasks without manual entry.
  • Real-Time Status Updates: Automatically update Trello cards with the latest photo documentation from CompanyCam, keeping all team members informed and aligned on project progress.
  • Centralized Reporting: Generate comprehensive reports that combine Trello task statuses with CompanyCam documentation, providing stakeholders with a clear overview of project milestones and visual evidence.

How to Build the Trello → CompanyCam Sync

  1. In Trello, set up a webhook that listens for card updates using the endpoint: POST /1/webhooks. Ensure to include the callback URL that will receive the payload.
  2. Configure the webhook to trigger on events such as card_updated or card_created. This will allow you to capture relevant data like card.id, card.name, and card.desc.
  3. In your callback handler, extract the card details from the payload and prepare the data for CompanyCam. Specifically, you will need to format the extracted data into the required JSON structure for the CompanyCam API.
  4. Use the CompanyCam API endpoint: POST /projects/{project_id}/photos to insert the photo documentation. Make sure to include necessary fields such as photo_url, description, and card_id from Trello.
  5. Test the integration by updating a Trello card and confirming that the corresponding photo documentation appears in the specified CompanyCam project.

Developer Warnings & API Gotchas

  • Ensure that the card.id from Trello is correctly mapped to the card_id field in CompanyCam; otherwise, you may lose the association between tasks and documentation.
  • Be mindful of the data types; Trello's card.desc may contain HTML, which could cause issues if improperly formatted when sent to CompanyCam.
  • Check the payload size limits for both Trello webhooks and CompanyCam API to avoid truncation of data during transfers.
