The Wistia Trello Power-Up is not compatible with audio files.
Wistia Trello Power-Up
With the Wistia Trello Power-Up you can attach videos to your Trello cards, see a snapshot of each video’s analytics, and play them right within Trello.
You can also upload new videos and search your Wistia account. It’s a great way to manage your video workflow, and share video content and metrics with your team, directly from Trello.
Set up the Wistia-Trello Power-Up
There are a couple of different ways to enable the Wistia Power-Up. You can click the Power-Ups icon on a Trello board and then select "Add Power-Ups."
Or, open the menu on the right-hand side of a Trello board and scroll down to the Power-Ups option.
In the Power-Ups modal, find Wistia and click "Add."
Once enabled, click "Settings" to connect your Wistia account to Trello. Select to authorize an account and follow the steps to log in. This lets you see Wistia video analytics, upload, and search for videos in Wistia from Trello.
Note
You must be the Owner or a Manager of your Wistia account to connect the integration. Once connected, every member of your Trello team with access to the board will have the Power-Up enabled, and will be able to view analytics and upload videos.
Attach Wistia videos to Trello cards
There are three ways to add a Wistia video to Trello.
Paste a Wistia link
Upload a new video
Search for existing videos
Add a Wistia video link to a Trello card
When you copy and paste a Wistia link into the description of a card in Trello, this will display the thumbnail, and populate several data points from Wistia analytics:
Plays
Loads
Play Rate
Engagement
If you add a link to a video in a comment, and that video isn't already part of the card's description, you can add the link to the video as an attachment in the card.
This will populate the thumbnail, and several data points about the video's analytics. Click the thumbnail to play the video directly in Trello.
Clicking on the link to the video will take you directly to that video's page in Wistia. Clicking the analytics section will take you directly to the video's analytics page in Wistia.
Upload a new video via Trello
To upload a video to Wistia from Trello, click the Power-ups option below a Trello card and select Wistia.
From here, select to upload a new video.
Tip
By default, videos you upload in Trello will go into a Wistia folder named "Trello board videos: (your Trello board’s name)."
If you want to upload videos into a different Wistia folder, you can select a new one in the Power-Up’s settings area.
Once your video has finished uploading, you'll see the thumbnail, and a number of analytics in the Trello card. Click the thumbnail to play the video directly in Trello.
Clicking the video link will take you directly to the video's page in Wistia. Clicking the analytics section will take you directly to the video's analytics page in Wistia.
Find existing Wistia videos in Trello
To search for existing videos from your Wistia account, click the Power-ups option below a Trello card and select Wistia.
From here, select to choose an existing video.
Trello will populate your 10 most recently updated videos. Or, you can also search by title for any video in your Wistia account.
When you select a video, Trello will populate the thumbnail, and multiple data points about the video. Click the thumbnail to play the video directly in Trello.
Clicking on the link to the video will take you directly to that video's page in Wistia. Clicking the analytics section will take you directly to the video's analytics page in Wistia.
