Hi @Philippe GORCE 

Do you mean automatically add the user who created the card as a "Member" of the card?

If yes, you should be able to do this using Butler (Automation). To get to the appropriate Automation screen:

  1. On your Board, select the Automation button, near the top of the screen
  2. Select Rules from the drop-down list

Create a new rule, and it should look something like this:

  • Trigger: when a card is created in the board
  • Action: Members
    • add member @ {username} to the card

---

A few notes on this rule...

  • The bold/italics text is the text you should customise in the Trigger/Action
  • For the Action, you need to type in the variable {username}. It doesn't come up as an option in a list - but is possible to use. This variable provides the username of the user that triggered the command. To see a full list of variables you can use in Trello Automation, see this help page

For more information on Butler/Automation, see: https://support.atlassian.com/trello/docs/butler/

Let us know what you think!
