That's the whole question: just hoping there is a keyboard shortcut for copying a card's link. 

I checked out the "shortcuts" menu, accessible through `?` but didn't see anything. 

I use this feature all the time, and find it really helpful for navigating / linking related tasks, so am really hoping this is possible!

Thanks in advance for your time & help!

All the best,

RA

@rax adaam you can hover over a card and then do "ctrl-c" to copy the card's link, then hover over another card and "ctrl-v" to paste (or cmd if you're on a mac).

What you described here will attach a card to the card you're hovering over; however, it also works if you want to create an actual link (i.e. hyperlinked text), inside the card, which is awesome!

Instead of posting a separate answer, I'll just mark this one as correct, but for completeness:

once you've copied the link, to create a link within the other card's content, use the

[link text](paste copied link here)

markdown. 

Thanks a ton @Iain Dooley for the quick reply: this is going to be a huge time saver!

@Iain Dooley - never realized so many shortcuts worked on-hover! The more you know...

FYI for anyone following this thread, the keyboard shortcut reference (press SHIFT-? while on a board) is way more useful than the "keyboard shortcuts" help doc.

@rax adaam - that would be nifty, right?

I instinctively press ALT-D, then CTRL-C all the time when I need to copy a card link. 😂
