Boards

Project boards and cards: create, schedule, and automate.

Managing boards

GET/boardsList boards.POST/boardsCreate a board.GET/boards/{id}Get a board (lists + settings).PATCH/boards/{id}Update a board.DELETE/boards/{id}Delete a board.

Board automations (rules) run on API writes exactly as they do in-app; when a rule fires during a card write, the response includes human-readable rule notes so changes are never mysterious.

Cards

GET/boards/{id}/cardsList cards (optional calendar filters).POST/boards/{id}/cardsAdd a card.PATCH/boards/{id}/cards/{cardId}Update a card.DELETE/boards/{id}/cards/{cardId}Delete a card.

Duplicating
