As a Trello user, I would like to be able to customize Slack notifications generated by the Slack Power-Up

      User Problem

      Currently, the Slack Power-Up allows users to customize when they receive Slack notifications by selecting what types of actions that should be sent to their preferred Slack channel.

      Users would like to also be able to customize the notifications themselves by selecting what card information is/not included on these notifications (card title, description, due dates, labels, etc.)

      Suggested Solution

      Add additional settings to the Power-Up in the form of checkboxes (similar to the existing ones) where users can select what fields will be included on notifications sent to Slack.

      Current Workaround

      Instead of using the Slack Power-Up, users can use Automations to send notifications to Slack, which allows them to customize the notification message by using variables to determine what card information is included. However, this comes with different downsides such as:

      • Losing Quick Actions menu
      • Losing coloured labels (variables only return plain text)
      • {carddescription}

        returns the entire card description without the "Show more" option, which may lead to unwanted walls of text for cards with large descriptions
