List/card status mapping

Trello doesn’t have a concept of card statuses, so you never really know if a card has been completed, or if its just in a column that happens to be called ‘Done’. In Superthread we make this distinction obvious and it helps the system report on the progress of work. Each list/column can stil be named whatever you like, but it must also have a property called ‘status’ which represents if the cards in that list are, ‘backlog’, ‘not started’, ‘in progress,’ ‘done’, or ‘cancelled’. Based on your Trello list names, we try and set the appropriate ‘status’ for each of them:

Backlog status

Lists containing these words will be set to the ‘Backlog’ status:
  • Unstarted
  • Not started
  • Backlog
  • Todo
  • To do
  • to-do

In progress status

Lists containing these words will be set to ‘In progress’ status:
  • Doing
  • Progress
  • QA
  • Quality
  • Pull
  • Review
  • Pause
  • Wait
  • Started

Done status

Lists containing these words will be set to the ‘Done’ status:
  • Done
  • Finished
  • Complete
  • Closed
  • Deployed
  • Production
  • Shipped
  • Live

After import

  • All imported cards include a link back to their original Trello location
  • You can view your import history in Settings > Workspace > Importers
  • You can map Trello members to Superthread team members during the import process
  • Attachments are imported either as inline images in the description or added to the card’s attachments section
