- Rate Limiting: Trello allows 100 requests per 10 seconds per token. Exceeding this returns 429 errors. Implement request queuing and exponential backoff.
- Webhook Expiration: Trello webhooks expire if they fail consistently. Monitor webhook health and re-register webhooks if they stop firing.
-
Card Position Changes: Moving cards between lists or reordering requires specific
posvalues (“top”, “bottom”, or numeric position). Incorrect values may result in unexpected card placement.
