New Intercom conversation → Trello Instantly
The moment a new Intercom conversation appears, n8n captures it and lets Trello create a Trello card — no manual checking, no missed items.
- 1
Fetch Intercom data
Add an
HTTP Requestnode (or the native Intercom node if you have credentials set up) and point it at the Intercom API. Poll Intercom for new conversations. Add aSchedule Triggerbefore it if this recipe runs on a timer, or aWebhooknode if Intercom can push events directly. - 2
Shape the data with a Set node
Add a
Setnode after the fetch step to pull out the fields you need — e.g.id,title(orname),status, andupdated_atfrom the Intercom conversation. This keeps the rest of the workflow clean and readable. - 3
Send it to Trello
Add a
Trellonode set to operationCreatea card. Connect your account, pick theBoardandList, and set the cardName/Descriptionfrom the Set-node fields. - 4
Activate and test
Click
Activatein the top-right corner. Trigger a real conversation in Intercom (or run the workflow manually against existing data) and confirm it lands correctly in Trello. Once verified, this runs hands-off.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need to code anything?
No. n8n is a visual, drag-and-drop builder. You connect your Intercom and Trello accounts, map the fields, and activate — no code required.
Where do I get my Intercom API credentials?
In your Intercom account settings, look for "API", "Developers" or "Integrations" and generate an API key or token. Paste it into n8n's HTTP Request node (as a header or credential) or the native Intercom node if one is available.
Can I filter which items trigger this workflow?
Yes. Add an `IF` node after the Set node with a condition on any field (status, amount, tag, etc.). Wire the TRUE branch to the Trello step and leave FALSE empty to skip the rest.
