Todoist
Connect Todoist and your assistant can manage your tasks — creating, finding, completing, and reopening tasks, and organizing projects, sections, and comments.
What’s included
With Todoist connected, your assistant can:
- Manage tasks — create, update, complete, and reopen tasks
- Find work — search across your workspace and filter tasks
- Stay organized — manage projects, sections, and comments, and reorder items
- Review activity — track your activity log
Connecting Todoist
- Choose a personal or team connection. For yourself, open Integrations. For a team, open Integrations on that team’s Powers page.
- Find Todoist and click Connect for a personal connection, or Connect for [team name] for a team connection. Keep or edit the label, then click Continue.
- Authorize Town in Todoist (sign in when prompted).
- Return to Town.
Your assistant acts on your Todoist account. You can revoke access anytime from Todoist settings.
What your assistant can do
| Capability | What it does | Makes changes? |
|---|---|---|
| Find and filter tasks | Search tasks across your workspace | No |
| Track activity | Review your activity log | No |
| Create and update tasks | Add or modify tasks | Yes |
| Complete and reopen tasks | Check tasks off or bring them back | Yes |
| Manage projects and sections | Organize your workspace | Yes |
| Manage comments | Add and manage task comments | Yes |
| Reorder items | Rearrange tasks and sections | Yes |
Use cases
- Email to task — “add this to my Todoist with a Friday due date.”
- Daily planning — a morning routine that summarizes what’s due today.
- Cleanup — complete tasks as work finishes elsewhere.
Good to know
- Task changes are immediate — set the tool to Ask each time in routines that create or complete tasks.
- Switching Todoist accounts. Disconnect the old connection, then connect again with the Todoist account you want. A team’s Todoist connection is separate from your personal one, so both can exist at once.
