Automate Sync Between Looker/Google Sheets and Trello + Slack-Based Weekly Reporting

Description:

We’re looking for an automation specialist to help us streamline two connected workflows related to our content operations.

⸻

Part 1: Trello Sync Based on Data Updates

We maintain a table of content performance data in Looker, which can also be exported to Google Sheets if needed. Each row represents a piece of content and corresponds to a Trello card on our content team’s task board.

We need an automation that can:

1.Create new Trello cards when new content appears in the table (Looker preferred, but Google Sheets is acceptable).

2. Update existing Trello cards when specific fields (like a count value) change. These changes determine the card’s position on the board, typically moving it between lists based on its status or priority.

Ideally, the automation should be able to search and update cards across all lists, as cards move regularly. If that’s not possible, it must be able to search multiple lists or otherwise work around this constraint.

This sync only needs to run once a week (not in real time), as the source data in Looker updates weekly. A scheduled sync is sufficient for both the Trello updates and the Slack report. This timing offers flexibility and reduces the need for ongoing monitoring.

One specific consideration: in some cases, two content pieces may share the same content ID because they differ by content type (e.g., one is a hotel and one is an activity). The automation logic should account for content type alongside the ID to ensure accurate matches.

⸻

Part 2: Slack-Based Weekly Reporting

We also need to set up a weekly content production summary that:

• Is automatically generated from the same data source (Looker or Google Sheets)

• Posts to a designated Slack channel

• Is formatted cleanly to summarize content volume, types, examples, and destinations

We’ll provide a sample format to follow.

⸻

What You’ll Have Access To

You’ll be able to use any combination of the following tools:

• Looker (read access)

• Google Sheets

• Trello

• Zapier

• Relay.app

• Slack

Use whatever tools make the solution efficient, accurate, and maintainable.
