Todoist

Task and project events from Todoist into your stack

Todoist is the personal-and-team task manager that's been a quiet workhorse for over a decade. Five triggers cover the activity that drives most automation: Task Created, Task Updated (any field change), Task Completed (the high-signal one), Comment Added, Project Created. Twenty-seven actions handle the broad surface: Create Task, Close Task (Todoist's word for complete), Create Project, Create Section, Create Label, Add Comment, plus reads and deletes across all four object types (tasks, projects, sections, labels, comments). The integration uses Todoist's OAuth at the user level. Common patterns: a Task Completed fires a workflow that logs the completion to a personal Notion productivity dashboard, or a Calendly meeting booking creates a paired Todoist task for the meeting prep that auto-completes when the meeting ends. Todoist's natural-language date parser (think "every Tuesday at 9am") is preserved end to end, pass strings to Create Task's due date field and Todoist resolves them server-side.

Triggers

Workflows start when Todoist does.

5 real-time triggers, each backed by a webhook subscription. Events arrive within seconds and you don't have to set up polling.

Actions

Do anything Todoist can do, from a workflow.

Every action accepts dynamic inputs from upstream nodes, whether that's an AI output, a form field, or a search result.

ActionWhat it does
Add CommentAdds a comment to an existing Todoist task or project. Use it to log automation activity, attach context from another system, or post status updates.
Complete TaskCloses a Todoist task. Recurring tasks roll forward to their next due date instead of disappearing.
Create LabelCreates a new personal label in Todoist, optionally with a color. Useful for syncing your tag taxonomy from another system.
Create ProjectCreates a new project in Todoist with name, color, parent project, and view style (list, board, calendar). The starting point for project-templating flows.
Create SectionCreates a new section inside a Todoist project. Sections are how board-view columns are organized.
Create TaskCreates a new task in Todoist with content, description, project, section, due date (supports natural language like "next monday"), priority, labels, and assignee.
Delete CommentPermanently deletes a comment from Todoist by ID. Used for cleanup of automation-posted comments.
Delete LabelPermanently deletes a personal label in Todoist. The label is also removed from any tasks it was attached to.
Delete ProjectPermanently deletes a Todoist project and all of its tasks. Irreversible, so gate this behind a confirmation step.
Delete SectionDeletes a section in a Todoist project; tasks inside the section move back to the project root instead of being deleted.
Delete TaskPermanently deletes a Todoist task. Different from completing it, use this for cleanup of spurious or duplicate items.
Get CommentReturns a single Todoist comment with its content, author, and parent task or project.
Get LabelReturns a single personal label by ID with its name, color, and order.
Get ProjectReturns a single Todoist project with its name, color, parent, view style, and favorite flag.
Get SectionReturns a single section by ID with its name, order, and parent project.
Get TaskReturns a single Todoist task with all of its fields (content, due, priority, labels, project, section, assignee).
List CommentsLists comments on a specific Todoist task or project. Use to build a discussion timeline or to export conversation history.
List LabelsLists all personal labels in the connected Todoist account. Used to build a label picker or to validate that a needed label exists.
List ProjectsLists all projects in the connected Todoist account, including shared projects. The standard first step for any flow that needs to scope work to a specific project.
List SectionsLists all sections in a Todoist project. Use it to populate a section picker before creating or moving a task.
List TasksLists active (uncompleted) Todoist tasks, optionally filtered by project, section, label, or Todoist's filter query language. Common in daily-digest and review workflows.
Reopen TaskReopens a previously completed Todoist task, restoring it to the active list. Useful when a downstream system reports a failure and you need the work back on the board.
Update CommentUpdates the content of an existing Todoist comment. Use this to keep an automation-posted status comment current rather than spamming new ones.
Update LabelUpdates a personal label's name, color, or favorite flag. Renames propagate to every task already tagged with the label.

Before you build

Three things worth knowing.

Filter at the trigger

Tiny Command counts a run the moment a trigger fires. Filtering early means only matching events spend your usage budget.

Authorize once, reuse anywhere

Connect Todoist once and every workflow on your account can use its triggers and actions. You don't have to re-auth per workflow.

No JSON to read

Every Todoist field shows up in the visual picker for downstream nodes. The raw payload is there for power users, optional for everyone else.

FAQ

Questions about the Todoist integration.

If we missed yours, ping support. We usually reply within an hour.

How do I connect Todoist to Tiny Command?
Open the Tiny Command workflow builder, drop in a Todoist node, and click Connect. Authorize Todoist once and any workflow on your account can use its triggers and actions. Most teams finish the connection in under two minutes.
What Todoist triggers does Tiny Command support?
Tiny Command supports 5 real-time Todoist triggers, including "Comment Added", "New Project", "Task Completed". Each trigger fires within seconds of the event happening in Todoist.
What Todoist actions can I run from a workflow?
27 Todoist actions are available out of the box, covering productivity operations like "Add Comment". Every action accepts dynamic inputs from upstream nodes, whether that's a search result, an AI output, or a form field.
Is the Todoist integration real-time?
Yes. Comment Added and every other Todoist trigger uses webhooks or push subscriptions, so workflows fire within seconds of the event in Todoist rather than on a polling schedule.
Do I need to write code to use Todoist with Tiny Command?
No. Every Todoist trigger and action is fully configurable from the visual workflow builder. For edge cases that aren't covered, drop in a custom HTTP node and call any Todoist API endpoint directly.
How much does the Todoist integration cost?
There's a free tier you can start on without a credit card. Higher run volumes and team features come with paid plans. The Todoist integration itself has no per-app surcharge.
