Todoist - Custom App API Integrations

Build and run workflows using the Todoist - Custom App API. Use 1000s of source-available triggers and actions across 2,000+ apps. Or write custom code to integrate any app or API in seconds.

Overview#

The Todoist Custom App API on Pipedream enables you to automate your task management by connecting Todoist with a vast array of other applications and services. Capitalize on this to sync tasks across platforms, escalate priority items, or trigger reminders and actions based on activity within Todoist. From sending a Slack message when a task is due to adding tasks via email parsing, the possibilities are extensive for boosting productivity and ensuring nothing falls through the cracks.

import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
  props: {
    todoist_custom_app: {
      type: "app",
      app: "todoist_custom_app",
    }
  },
  async run({steps, $}) {
    return await axios($, {
      url: `https://api.todoist.com/rest/v2/projects`,
      headers: {
        Authorization: `Bearer ${this.todoist_custom_app.$auth.oauth_access_token}`,
      },
    })
  },
})

Example Use Cases#

Task Completion Notifications: Automate sending a message to a Slack channel when a task is marked complete in Todoist. Keep your team updated in real-time without manual updates, enhancing team communication and project tracking.
Email to Task Conversion: Use an incoming email to trigger the creation of a Todoist task. Parse important details from the email using Pipedream's built-in code steps and populate them into a new Todoist task, ensuring that action items from emails are captured and tracked efficiently.
Daily Task Digest: Compile and send a daily digest of tasks due that day from Todoist to your preferred communication platform, such as Microsoft Teams. Use Pipedream's scheduled triggers to automate the process, providing a clear overview of the day's priorities every morning.

Authentication#

Todoist - Custom App uses OAuth authentication. When you connect your Todoist - Custom App account, Pipedream will open a popup window where you can sign into Todoist - Custom App and grant Pipedream permission to connect to your account. Pipedream securely stores and automatically refreshes the OAuth tokens so you can easily authenticate any Todoist - Custom App API.

Pipedream requests the following authorization scopes when you connect your account:

do_not_use
