How this automation works

Keep designers and project managers in sync by posting a comment to a Figma file. When a new Trello card is added to the specified board, this Applet posts a comment on the configured Figma file with the card details. Useful for teams who want Trello tasks or bugs linked back to designs in Figma for quick context and tracking.
