Official Trello Power-Up Integration

Trello protects their app
You are responsible for your data

Trello is a "Shared Responsibility" platform. While they ensure the service is available, their Terms of Service clearly state that users are solely responsible for maintaining backups of their content. If a user accidentally deletes a board or a rogue Power-Up corrupts your cards, Trello cannot get them back for you.

The cloud is not a magic place

Trello (Atlassian):

Terms of Service

"We are not responsible for any loss or corruption of Your Content, or the costs or expenses associated with backing up or restoring any of Your Content. You are solely responsible for securing and backing up Your Content."

Atlassian explicitly requires you to perform your own backups

It’s not just our advice—it’s official Atlassian policy. In their Cloud Security Shared Responsibilities whitepaper, Atlassian defines the critical gap between their infrastructure and your responsibility.

Your role: Create backups of your data using the available APIs to reflect the information accessibility that fits your needs.
