Automation Engine vs WebHook Data Receiver Comparison

Rasmus Wulff Jensen edited this page Mar 18, 2024 · 2 revisions

In TrelloDotNet, there are two ways to react to Webhook Events from a Trello Board;

  • The Automation Engine that makes it easy to set up at a slight cost of Performance and Flexibility
  • The Webhook Data Reveiver that gives you more control, but you need to handle almost everything yourself

This page compares the two in various aspects for you to choose which is suitable for you:

For personal preference and having made both I personally prefer the Automation Engine despite giving up a bit of control.
