10 MB/file on Free; per-board attachment ceiling exists in the API response model (limits.attachments.perBoard warnAt 32400 / disableAt 36000) — i.e. ~32k attachments/board before hard stop; 10 MB is small for bulk data |
| Binding | per-object-cap the per-object cap sets the shard size and therefore the object count; it bounds the total more tightly than any headline quota |
| Interface | rest, rclone rest |
| Tooling | documented Trello REST API: POST /1/cards/{id}/attachments (multipart file or url), plus GET /1/cards/{id}/attachments; py-trello and trello-rclone-style wrappers exist |
| Composes with | unlimited cards x 10 MB x unlimited boards x unlimited free Workspaces (10 members each). This is genuinely 'per-record unlimited': no bucket cap, only a per-file cap. 500 GB = 51,200 attachments |
| Reliability | attachments are real copies inside Trello ('Attachments from your computer create an actual copy within Trello'); Atlassian has deprecated/changed API auth (key+token still works) but attachments have been stable for a decade |
