Securing the Necessary API Keys and Tokens

To interact with the Trello API, you'll need to generate an API key and token. Follow these steps to obtain them:

Generate an API Key:

Create a Trello Power-Up if you haven't already. Refer to the Managing Power-Ups documentation for guidance.
Visit the Trello Power-Ups admin page, access your Power-Up, navigate to the API Key tab, and select the option to generate a new API Key.

Generate an API Token:

On the same page where you found your API key, click the "Token" hyperlink next to the API key.
You will be prompted to authorize your app and generate a token. Click "Allow" to grant your app access to your Trello account.

Keep this token secret as it grants access to your Trello data. For detailed information on generating API keys and tokens, refer to the Trello API documentation.

Securing the OpenAI API Key

To use the OpenAI functionalities within Synapse Copilot, you'll need to obtain an API key from OpenAI. Follow these steps:

Sign Up for an OpenAI Account: Visit the OpenAI website.
Generate an API Key: Navigate to the API section of your OpenAI dashboard and click on the option to generate a new API key.

For more details, you can refer to the OpenAI API documentation.

Configuring Your Project

Add your Trello API key, Trello token, and OpenAI API key to the config.yml file:

trello_api_key: YOUR_TRELLO_API_KEY

trello_token: YOUR_TRELLO_TOKEN

openai_api_key: YOUR_OPENAI_API_KEY

Running Synapse Copilot

To run Synapse Copilot and interact with your Trello boards, follow these steps to modify the run.py file and set it up to use environment variables for your API key and token.

Step 1: Modify the run.py File

Open the run.py file in your favorite code editor and navigate to the section related to the Trello scenario. You will see a block of commented code and an active code block. Ensure that the active code block is correctly set up to use the API key and token from the environment variables defined in your config.yml.

# Example of setting API key and token
import os

trello_api_key = os.getenv('TRELLO_API_KEY')
trello_token = os.getenv('TRELLO_TOKEN')

Step 2: Run Synapse Copilot

With the run.py file updated, you can now run Synapse Copilot. Here’s how:

cd Synapse-Copilot
python run.py

Follow the prompts to select the Trello scenario and enter the user ID. You can then input commands directly related to managing your Trello boards, such as:

Create a new board with name 'Health Planner'

The system will process the instruction and interact with the Trello API accordingly, creating the board. By following these steps, you will have Synapse Copilot up and running, ready to manage your Trello boards efficiently.
