Integrating Amazing Fields with Zapier and Third-Party Tools

Amazing Fields stores data in its own system, which means external tools like Zapier, Make, and other Power-Ups cannot access it directly, at least not by default.

The solution is the Custom Field Wrapper. By linking an Amazing Field to a native Trello Custom Field, your field data becomes accessible to any tool that integrates with Trello Custom Fields.

How the integration works

Trello only allows Power-Ups and external integrations to communicate with each other through native Trello Custom Fields. Amazing Fields bridges this gap by wrapping a Custom Field, meaning it creates and manages a linked Trello Custom Field that mirrors the Amazing Field value in real time.

Once a field is wrapped:

• Any value updated in Amazing Fields is instantly written to the linked Custom Field
• Any value written to the Custom Field by an external tool (e.g. a Zap) is reflected back in Amazing Fields
• The wrapped field appears in Trello's Custom Fields panel with a "_" prefix (e.g. _Status), identifying it as managed by Amazing Fields

Advanced: REST API

If you are a developer and need a more advanced or direct integration, Amazing Fields also provides a REST API that securely exposes Amazing Fields data. This is useful for custom scripts, internal tools, or cases where the Custom Field Wrapper approach is not sufficient.
