Marketplace document: ADManager Plus' Trello integration

Pre-requisites

Requires an API key and API token to authorize API requests

Privileges

• To import users from Trello (inbound actions): Ensure the account used for authorization has permissions to read all user accounts.
• To perform any action or query in Trello (outbound actions): Ensure the account used for authorization has permissions to perform the desired actions.

 

Note: ADManager Plus comes with a preconfigured set of APIs that helps you perform basic actions with the integration. If the action you require is not available, please gather the necessary API details from the Trello API documentation to configure an inbound or outbound webhook to perform the required action.

Authorization configuration

• Log in to ADManager Plus and navigate to the Automation tab.
• On the left pane, under Configuration, click Application Integrations.
• Under Enterprise Applications, click Trello.
• Toggle the Enable Trello Integration button on.
• Click Authorization.
• Enter the API token in the Value field.
• Click Configure.

Inbound webhook configuration

An inbound webhook enables you to transfer user data from Trello to ADManager Plus. The attribute mapping configured in this section can be selected as the data source during automation configuration to perform the desired action on the list of users received from the API response. To configure an inbound webhook for Trello:

• Under Inbound Webhook, click Trello Endpoint Configuration.
• In this section, an endpoint, Trello USERS ENDPOINT, comes preconfigured with the Endpoint URL, Method, Headers, and Parameters fields filled out to fetch user accounts from Trello. If you would like to use this preconfigured endpoint, replace {API Key} with the API key of your Trello instance in the Endpoint URL field. However, if you would like to use a new endpoint to import users, you can configure one by clicking the + Add API Endpoint button and filling in the required fields according to Trello's API references.

Note:

• The API key value pair is preconfigured as a header for authenticating API requests as configured during authorization configuration.
• You can add macros to your endpoint configuration to dynamically change it according to your requirements using the macro chooser button ().
• Refer to Trello's API references to configure additional headers and parameters, if required.
• Once done, click Test & Save. A response window will display all the requested parameters that can be fetched using the API call. After verifying that the requested parameters have fetched the right values, click Proceed.

Note:

• Refer to Trello's API references to know the Parameters that must be configured to fetch only specific parameters.
• You can configure multiple endpoints for Trello using the + Add API Endpoint button. Click here to learn how.
• Click Data Source - LDAP Attribute Mapping to match endpoints and to map AD LDAP attributes with the respective attributes in Trello.
• Click + Add New Configuration and perform the following actions:
• Enter the Configuration Name and Description and select the Automation Category from the drop-down menu.
• In the Select endpoint field, select the desired endpoint and a Primary Key that is unique to a user (e.g., employeeIdentifier).
Note: When multiple endpoints are configured, this attribute must hold the same value on all the endpoints.
• In the Attribute Mapping field, select the attribute from the LDAP Attribute Name drop-down menu and map it to the respective attribute in Trello.
• If you would like to create a new custom format for this, click Add New Format.
• Click Save.

Outbound webhook configuration

An outbound webhook enables you to send changes made in AD using ADManager Plus to Trello and carry out tasks in Trello—all from ADManager Plus. The webhooks configured in this section can be included in Orchestration Templates, which in turn can be used in event-driven and scheduled automations. They can also be applied directly to desired users to perform a sequence of actions on them (under Management > Advanced Management > Orchestration).

To configure an outbound webhook for Trello:

• Under Outbound Webhook, click Trello Webhook Configuration.
• Click + Add Webhook.
• Enter a name and description for this webhook.
• Decide on the action that has to be performed and refer to Trello's API references for the API details, such as the URL, headers, parameters, and other requirements.
• Select the HTTP method that will enable you to perform the desired action on the endpoint from the drop-down menu.
• Enter the endpoint URL.
• Configure the Headers, Parameters, and Message Type in the appropriate format based on the API call that you would like to perform.
• Click Test and Save.
• A pop-up window will then display a list of AD users and groups on which to test the configured API call. Select the desired user or group on which this API request has to be tested and click OK. This will make a real-time call to the endpoint URL, and the selected objects will be modified according the configuration.
• The webhook response and request details will then be displayed. Verify them for the expected API behavior and click Save.
