Overview
Antura to Trello is a structural simplification migration. Antura is a Swedish-born enterprise PPM platform with 20 years of portfolio, resource, risk, and cost management capability. Trello is a Kanban-based task management tool owned by Atlassian with no native portfolio, resource management, cost tracking, or risk register constructs. We extract Antura data through its CSV-based UI export, resolve Swedish-language column headers during transformation, and map Projects to Trello Boards, Sub-projects to nested Boards or Lists, and Tasks to Cards with checklist-based hierarchy where sub-subtask depth is needed. Milestones, Risks, Issues, Cost Records, and Time Entries have no native Trello equivalent; we migrate these as custom fields, card descriptions, or checklist items and flag the gap in our written inventory. We do not migrate Antura custom workflows, automations, or document binaries as part of standard scope. Trello's Standard plan ($5/user/mo) enables custom fields, which are required for most Antura migrations; the Free plan does not support them.
Every standard and custom field arrives verified.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a Antura object lands in Trello, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
Antura
Project
Trello
Board
1:1Antura Projects map to Trello Boards. Each Antura project name becomes a Trello board name, project status (active, on-hold, completed) maps to board archiving or list status, start and end dates map to optional board description fields or Power-Up timeline data. We create boards in Trello via the Trello REST API, preserving project owner as a board member with Admin role. Portfolio membership does not map natively; we flag this as a Workspace organizational strategy that the customer configures post-migration.
Antura
Sub-project
Trello
Board or List
1:manyAntura Sub-projects nested under parent Projects map either to separate Trello Boards linked via board description or external URL, or to top-level Lists within the parent Board. We discuss the preferred strategy during scoping: separate boards preserve sub-project independence but lose visual hierarchy; lists within a board preserve the hierarchy but require list naming conventions to distinguish sub-project boundaries. Sub-project status, dates, and owner migrate in either case.
Antura
Task
Trello
Card
1:1Antura Tasks map to Trello Cards with task name as card title, description as card description, assignee as card member, due date as card due date, and status as card list position or a custom status field. Antura's flat task hierarchy (no native subtask nesting) maps cleanly to Trello's flat card model. For any customer-specific subtask conventions captured as custom fields, we map to Trello checklists within the parent card, noting that checklist items cannot have independent assignees, due dates, or attachments unlike full Trello cards.
Antura
Resource
Trello
Workspace Member
1:1Antura Resources represent employees with name, email, capacity, skills, and cost rates. We extract the resource list from Antura's export and provision Trello Workspace members by email invite. Resource capacity percentages and cost rates have no native Trello field; we migrate these as custom fields on a per-board administrative card or as a custom field Power-Up setup post-migration. Utilization reporting that Antura provides natively requires Trello Premium with a reporting Power-Up such as Screenful.
Antura
Milestone
Trello
Card with due date or Label
lossyAntura Milestones are date-driven markers within Projects. Trello has no native milestone construct. We map milestones to dedicated Trello Cards with the milestone name as title, the milestone date as card due date, and a distinct Label (e.g., 'Milestone') to visually separate milestone markers from regular tasks. Customers on Trello Premium can use the Timeline view to visualize milestone cards as date ranges. We document this mapping strategy during scoping and note that milestone dependency tracking does not transfer.
Antura
Risk and Issue
Trello
Card with Label and custom fields
lossyAntura Risks and Issues tracked as separate objects with severity, probability, owner, status, and mitigation fields map to Trello Cards with a 'Risk' or 'Issue' Label, severity and probability stored as custom dropdown or number fields, and mitigation text stored in the card description. Trello's lack of a dedicated risk register means these records lose the structured risk-specific views (risk matrix, probability-impact grid) that Antura provides. We migrate the data and flag the visualization gap in our written inventory.
Antura
Cost Record
Trello
Custom Fields on Board or administrative Card
lossyAntura Cost Records include budget estimates, actuals, and forecasts per Project. Trello has no native financial fields. We map cost data to number-type custom fields on an administrative card within the project board (estimated budget, actual spend, variance) or to Trello Premium custom fields at the card level if cost tracking is needed per-task. Multi-currency handling requires the customer to standardize to a single currency before migration or to store currency metadata alongside numeric values. We flag that native cost reporting does not exist in Trello and recommend a Power-Up or external BI tool for ongoing financial visibility.
Antura
Time Entry
Trello
Card checklist item or card custom field
lossyAntura Time Entries record hours by Resource on Tasks or Projects with date, duration, and description. Trello has no native time-tracking object. We map time entries either as checklist items on the relevant Card (with hours recorded as text in the checklist item) or as number custom fields on Cards if Trello Premium custom fields are available. For organizations with significant time tracking requirements, we recommend a time-tracking Power-Up (such as a Time Tracking Power-Up or a third-party integration) as a post-migration configuration step.
Antura
Custom Field (organization-specific)
Trello
Custom Field (Trello native)
lossyAntura allows organization-specific custom fields across Projects, Tasks, and Resources with no public metadata API for schema discovery. We handle this by including a schema discovery phase where we export a full field inventory from the customer's Antura instance through the CSV export process, identify Swedish-language field labels, and map each to the equivalent Trello custom field type. Trello supports five custom field types: Number, Date, Dropdown, Checkbox, and Text. Custom fields on the Free plan require a Power-Up; Standard and Premium include custom fields natively. We confirm the customer's Trello plan tier during scoping.
Antura
Document
Trello
Attachment on Card (manual reattachment)
1:1Antura Documents attach to Projects and Sub-projects as binary files. We extract document metadata (name, type, date, owner) from Antura's export but cannot transfer actual file binaries through standard data migration methods. We provide a file inventory document listing every Antura document with its project, file type, and storage location (path in Antura's document management area). The customer runs Antura's document bulk export to a shared network location or cloud storage, and reattaches files to the corresponding Trello Cards post-migration. We do not handle the file transfer itself.
Antura
Portfolio
Trello
Workspace or board group
lossyAntura Portfolios group Projects for strategic oversight with priority, status, and strategic alignment metadata. Trello has no Portfolio construct. We map portfolio membership to Trello Workspace structure: each Antura Portfolio becomes a Trello Workspace (available on Standard and Premium plans; Free plan uses a single default Workspace), and Antura Projects within that Portfolio become Boards within the Workspace. Portfolio-level priority and strategic alignment metadata migrates as custom fields on an administrative board within the Workspace. We confirm the customer's Trello plan tier during scoping because the Free plan restricts Workspace creation.
Antura
Activity History (comments, attachments, checklist progress)
Trello
Card activity feed and attachments
1:1Antura stores task-level activity history including comments, file attachments, and status change logs. Trello Cards have a native activity feed and support attachments. We extract activity records from Antura's CSV export, parse comment text and timestamps, and inject them into Trello Card comment fields via the Trello API. File attachments on tasks map to Trello Card attachments. We note that Antura's detailed activity log structure (e.g., separate entries for status changes vs. comments) flattens into Trello's chronological comment feed, which is a loss of granularity that we document in the written inventory.

Migration approach
Schema discovery and CSV extraction setup
We guide the customer's Antura administrator through the CSV export process for each supported object: Projects, Sub-projects, Tasks, Resources, Risks, Issues, Milestones, Cost Records, Time Entries, and Documents. We run a schema discovery phase to inventory all active custom fields, confirm the Antura instance language setting (which determines Swedish vs. English column headers), and document the file structure of attached documents. This phase produces a data inventory document listing every object type, record count per type, and file attachment inventory for the document reattachment step. Duration: 3-5 business days of customer-side export work, supervised by FlitStack AI.
Gap analysis and Trello plan selection
We analyze the Antura data inventory against Trello's object model and produce a written gap analysis. This document identifies every Antura object without a native Trello equivalent (Portfolio, Resource, Cost, Risk, Issue, Time Entry, Milestone) and proposes a mapping strategy for each. We also confirm the customer's target Trello plan: Free (no custom fields), Standard ($5/user, required for custom fields), or Premium ($10/user, required for Timeline view and Workspace-level admin). The gap analysis is reviewed with the customer before any transformation work begins. Duration: 1 week.
Data transformation and Swedish field name resolution
We transform every Antura CSV export into Trello-compatible import format. This includes resolving Swedish column headers to English equivalents (e.g., 'Projekt' to 'Project'), splitting multi-value fields, mapping Antura task status values to Trello list positions, and encoding custom field values as Trello-native types (Number, Date, Dropdown, Checkbox, Text). Resource capacity and cost rate data are encoded as custom fields on administrative board cards. Risk and Issue severity/probability values map to custom field dropdowns. Duration: 1-2 weeks depending on custom field complexity.
Trello Workspace and Board scaffolding
We create the Trello Workspace structure (or Workspaces, if multiple Antura Portfolios exist) and scaffold all Boards and Lists via the Trello REST API before any card data is imported. Each Antura Portfolio becomes a Trello Workspace (on Standard or Premium plan). Each Antura Project becomes a Trello Board. Top-level Antura Sub-projects become either separate Boards linked via board description or Lists within the parent Board, per the strategy agreed during scoping. Lists within each Board are configured to reflect the customer's workflow stages (e.g., To Do, In Progress, Review, Done). Workspace members are invited based on the Antura Resource list. Duration: 3-5 business days.
Card migration in dependency order
We import data into Trello in dependency order: first Workspace members (so assignees resolve), then Boards (so cards have a destination), then Cards with custom fields, then Card attachments. Tasks import as Cards using Trello's bulk card creation API. Milestones import as Cards with milestone labels and due dates. Risks and Issues import as Cards with 'Risk' or 'Issue' labels and severity/probability custom fields. Activity history (comments) injects into card comment fields via the Trello API. Each phase emits a row-count reconciliation report. We use exponential backoff and batch chunking to stay within Trello's API rate limits (360 requests per minute per token for read operations; lower for write operations). Duration: 1-2 weeks depending on record volume.
Document reattachment guidance and migration inventory delivery
We deliver the Antura document file inventory (produced in Step 1) to the customer's IT team, with a mapping guide linking each document to its target Trello Card. The customer executes the file reattachment step in Antura's document export tool and Trello's card attachment interface, as binary file transfer falls outside standard data migration scope. We deliver the written migration inventory covering all migrated object counts, unmapped Antura fields, Trello gap analysis, and recommended post-migration configurations (Butler automation rules, Power-Up setup, reporting configuration). We conduct a one-week post-migration validation window where we spot-check record counts and flag any import discrepancies for correction.
