Todoist Overview#

The Todoist API unlocks the potential to automate task management with precision. With Pipedream, you can craft workflows that react to events in Todoist, like task completions or due date changes, or drive actions in Todoist, such as creating tasks or updating projects. By integrating Todoist with Pipedream, you can seamlessly connect your to-do list with other apps to streamline your productivity, manage tasks based on triggers from other services, or compile reports on your task management patterns.

Trigger Code#

import common from "../common-task.mjs";

export default {
  ...common,
  key: "todoist-new-or-modified-task",
  name: "New or Modified Task",
  description: "Emit new event for each new or modified task. [See the docs here](https://developer.todoist.com/sync/v8/#read-resources)",
  version: "0.0.6",
  type: "source",
};

Trigger Configuration#

This component may be configured based on the props defined in the component code. Pipedream automatically prompts for input values in the UI and CLI.

Label	Prop	Type	Description
Todoist	`todoist`	`app`	This component uses the Todoist app.
Polling Interval	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`	Pipedream will poll the Todoist API on this schedule
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
Select Projects	`selectProjects`	`string[]`	Select a value from the drop down menu.

Trigger Authentication#

Todoist uses OAuth authentication. When you connect your Todoist account, Pipedream will open a popup window where you can sign into Todoist 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 API.

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

task:adddata:read_writedata:deleteproject:delete
