SureTriggers: Todoist Integration Guide

Do you use Todoist to manage your tasks and stay organized?

If so, you already know how powerful this app can be. But did you know that you can take your productivity to the next level by integrating Todoist with other apps you use every day?

For example, imagine you’re a freelance writer who uses Todoist to keep track of your deadlines.

With SureTriggers, you could create a workflow that automatically adds a task to your Todoist inbox whenever a new email arrives with a specific subject line “New Writing Assignment.”

Or maybe you’re a small business owner who uses Todoist to manage your team’s tasks. With SureTriggers, you could create a workflow that automatically creates a task in Todoist when a message is sent in a Slack channel.

That way, you can avoid logging into your Todoist account for creating tasks.

If that sounds interesting to you, this article is for you!

In this article, we will explore how you can connect SureTriggers with Todoist to automate repeating processes.

What is SureTriggers?

SureTriggers is an automation tool that can help you connect one app to another to automate processes.

With SureTriggers, you can create automated workflows that perform action events in apps when a trigger event happens in the other app.

For example, you can set up a workflow to automatically create a Trello card when you receive an email from a certain sender or to send a message in Slack when a Trello card is moved to a certain list.

What Are Some Todoist Workflows That You Can Create In SureTriggers?

With SureTriggers, you can create a variety of Todoist workflows to streamline your task management. Here are some examples:

  • Create a Task in Todoist when a new event is created in Google Calendar.
  • Create a Task in Todoist when a new form is submitted in Typeform.
  • Create a Task in Todoist when a new file is uploaded to Dropbox.
  • Create a Task Comment in Todoist when a new subtask is added in Asana.
  • Create a Task in Todoist when a new appointment is scheduled in Acuity Scheduling
  • Create a Project Comment in Todoist when a new message is posted in Slack.

These are just a few examples of the many workflows you can create using Todoist and SureTriggers.

How does automation work in SureTriggers?

Automation in SureTriggers is based on triggers and actions.

A trigger is an event that starts the workflow, and an action is a task that the workflow performs. For example, a trigger could be “a new Calendly meeting booked” and an action could be “create a task in Todoist.”

One complete set of triggers and actions is called a workflow.
