Todoist

Organize your tasks and manage projects.

Using the Todoist API with Trigger.dev

You can use Trigger.dev with any existing Node SDK or even just using fetch. Using io.runTask makes your Todoist background job resumable and appear in our dashboard.

Use io.runTask() and the official SDK or fetch.

Use our HTTP endpoint to subscribe to webhooks

16
    }),
17
  }),

19
  run: async (payload, io, ctx) => {

    const user = await io.runTask(
22
      "Add New Project",
23
      async () => {
24
        return await todoistClientApi.addProject({ name: payload.name });
