How to manage Trello in your organization
When an Atlassian organization admin wants to manage Trello usage, there are generally two aspects they want to manage:
Access to Trello as a product
Control of content created in Trello
Managing access to Trello
Verifying a domain in an Atlassian organization lets an oragnization admin manage all Atlassian accounts from that domain, including people who use Trello. The organization admin will be able to activate, deactivate, and delete accounts, as well as edit their profiles.
To set up access management for Trello, you will need to follow a few steps in the Atlassian organization side. Each step belows is linked to documentation on the subject with detailed instructions.
Verifying a domain doesn’t allow an organization admin to block access to Trello or assign or remove managed users from Trello as a product.
The product requests feature allows organization admins to block managed users from signing up for Trello, however those features require an active subscription to Jira, Jira Service Management, or Confluence Enterprise plans. More on managing product requests and shadow IT for Trello
SSO and two-step verification
Beyond setting up an Atlassian organization and verifying your domains, you can subscribe toAtlassian Guard Standard (formerly known as Atlassian Access) to enforce single sign-on and two-step verification, view audit logs and much more.
Currently, access to Trello is directly connected to the Atlassian account. This means that to block access to a Trello account, you need to disable the user's Atlassian account. That will also prevent them from using other Atlassian products such as Jira and Confluence.
Managing content in Trello
The steps above allow you to manage individual user accounts, but they don't allow you to manage Trello content such as Workspaces, boards, and cards.
Managing Trello content is a feature available to Workspace and Enterprise admins on the Premium and Trello Enterprise subscriptions.
To become an admin of a single Trello Workspace, having access to all boards on that Workspace, Premium might be the plan for you. Premium is procured for each workspace. You can find out more about managing Trello content within an upgraded workspace here: Workspace admin capabilities and in the related links at the end of this article.
If you have multiple Workspaces, and you want to administer all of them, being able to set company-wide permissions that apply to all Workspaces, you might need Trello Enterprise. To start exploring how to manage your Trello content with a Trello Enterprise, check out this article: Enterprise Wide Permissions and the ones listed at the end of this article.
Upgrade to Premium directly from your Workspace settings page, or from our pricing page. Reach out to our Sales team about Trello Enterprise here: https://trello.com/enterprise#contact
