Authentication Method

API Key Setup

Step 1: Get Your API Key

  1. Log in to Trello
  2. Go to trello.com/app-key
  3. Copy your API Key

Step 2: Generate a Token

  1. On the same page, click the Token link
  2. Authorize the app to access your Trello account
  3. Copy the generated token

Step 3: Store Credentials

The plugin uses a combined key|token format:
pnpm corsair setup --plugin=trello api_key=your-api-key
Trello requires both an API key and a user token. Depending on your setup, you may need to configure the trelloApiKey option separately in the plugin options.
