Relay.app is an automation tool that lets you automate actions across Outlook Mail, Trello, and many other apps. In this guide, we'll show you how to automatically run the “create draft” action in Outlook Mail for each list added in Trello using Relay.app.

Try it in Relay.app

Trello > Outlook Mail

Trigger

Last triggered

List added

Create draft

Set the Trello trigger as “New list added”

A playbook always starts with a trigger, which is responsible for detecting changes in your connected applications and responding accordingly.

Add the Trello trigger to initiate your playbook's actions every time a list is added. Click "Add trigger" in your playbook and choose "New list added" from the dropdown menu under Trello.

If you still need to connect your Trello account to Relay.app yet, a prompt will guide you through the process.

Add the “Create draft” step in Outlook

Integrate Outlook automation into your playbook to automatically create a draft email in Outlook Mail whenever a list is added in Trello.

Click the "Add step" button, locate the “Create draft” automation for Outlook, and input the mandatory and relevant details.

If your Outlook account still needs to be connected to Relay.app, you will be prompted to complete that connection. Make sure to allow the necessary permissions for Relay.app to sync with your Outlook account.

Activate your playbook

Activating the playbook is the last step in the process. Once you turn it on, it will automatically create a draft email in Outlook Mail every time a list is added in Trello without requiring manual intervention.

To activate your playbook, click the toggle button at the header. Before activating, we recommend performing a test run of your playbook to ensure all the steps work seamlessly together.
