Automate Google Drive + Trello with GAIA

Attach Drive files to Trello cards and keep project docs accessible

Trello boards give teams a visual overview of work in progress, but files related to each card still live in Google Drive without a clear connection. Team members switch between Trello and Drive constantly to find the document they need, breaking flow and causing version confusion when multiple Drive files exist for a single card.

GAIA links Google Drive and Trello so the right files are always attached to the right cards. Drive documents added to project folders are attached to corresponding Trello cards, and creating a new Trello board triggers the creation of an organized Drive folder structure. Files and cards stay connected from kickoff to completion.

4 things you can automate

Everything GAIA can do when Google Drive and Trello are connected.

1

Auto-attach Drive files to Trello cards

When a Drive document is added to a project folder, GAIA attaches it to the matching Trello card. Every card has its relevant files without anyone manually adding attachments.

2

Create Drive folders when Trello boards launch

A new Trello board triggers GAIA to create a structured Drive folder with lists matching the board's columns. File organization mirrors your workflow from day one.

3

Document revision alerts as Trello card comments

When an attached Drive document is edited, GAIA posts a comment on the Trello card noting the update. Card members are notified and can review the latest version immediately.

4

Archive card files to Drive on completion

When a Trello card moves to the 'Done' list, GAIA organizes its attached Drive files into an archive folder. Completed work is preserved and searchable.

How to set it up

Connect Google Drive and Trello to GAIA in three steps.

  1. 1

    Connect Google Drive and Trello to GAIA

    Authorize GAIA with your Google Drive and Trello account. GAIA maps Trello boards and lists to corresponding Drive folders.

  2. 2

    Configure folder templates and card attachment rules

    Define which Drive folders map to which Trello boards and how file additions trigger card attachments. GAIA applies your rules consistently.

  3. 3

    GAIA automates file-to-card linking

    Drive file additions and edits are reflected on Trello cards in real time. Teams always find the latest files directly on the card without searching Drive.

Frequently Asked Questions

No. GAIA only attaches files from folders you map to specific Trello boards. You maintain full control over which Drive content surfaces on cards.
