How to Set Permissions on Fields in Amazing Fields for Trello

Note: Permissions are available to supporters only. If you're on the free plan, you'll need to upgrade.

The Permissions settings let you control which Trello users can view and edit a field's values. By setting view and edit permissions on individual fields, you can protect sensitive data and ensure only the right people can make changes.

Permissions settings explained

View permission

Controls the minimum Trello board role required to see this field's value on a card. Setting this to a higher permission level hides the field from users with lower roles.

For example, setting View to Observer means all board members can see the field. Raising this level restricts visibility to members with higher roles only.

Edit permission

Controls the minimum Trello board role required to edit this field's value. This is independent of the View permission, you can allow everyone to see a value while restricting who can change it.

For example, you might allow all team members to view a budget figure, but only allow administrators to edit it.

Trello role reference

Amazing Fields permissions align with standard Trello board roles. Here is a quick reference:

  • Observer: Can view cards but cannot make changes. Lowest permission level.
  • Normal: Standard board member. Can view and interact with cards.
  • Admin: Full board access including board settings. Highest permission level.
