Create a Discord Project Role from Trello
Give a new working group a clear identity as soon as its work begins.
Trigger
New Card Trigger
Triggered when a card is created in the specified board
Action
Create role with guild id
Creates a new role in a discord guild with customizable name, permissions, color, hoist, mentionability, and icon; `icon` (custom image hash) and `unicode emoji` (standard emoji) are mutually exclusive.
Why this helps
New project groups lack a shared Discord role, making mentions and access harder to manage.
- Standardize project setup
- Make team mentions easier
- Reduce manual guild administration
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Trello and Discordbot in Notis once.
- 2Create an automation describing when a project role should be created.
- 3Pick the Trello New Card trigger.
- 4Choose a Discord report channel and test with one project card.
Questions about this workflow
Can the role name come from the card?
Yes. Ask Notis to derive a concise role name from the project context.
What permission is required?
The bot needs permission to manage roles in the Discord guild.

Discordbot actions
Recurring trigger

Webhook trigger

Card Archived Trigger
Triggered when a card is archived in the specified board
Assign role to guild member
Assigns a role to a guild member, provided the bot has 'manage roles' permission in the guild and the role to be assigned is hierarchically lower than the bot's highest role.

Triggered when there is activity in Trello.
Add reaction to message
Adds an emoji reaction from the authenticated user/bot to a specific message in a discord channel; does not return information about existing reactions.
New Board Trigger

Bulk ban users in guild with message deletion option
Bans up to 200 users from a discord guild, optionally deleting their recent messages; the bot must have 'ban members' permission in the guild, and this action is irreversible.
