Summarize an Affinity company from every list when a Todoist task appears

Create a Todoist task and get the relevant Affinity company context without searching across lists.

Trigger

New Task Created

Trigger when a new task is added to Todoist.

Action

Get a company s list entries

Summarize company data across all lists, including list-specific fields and metadata like creation date and author. access requires "export data from lists" permission.

Why this helps

Company context is scattered across Affinity lists, so a simple follow-up task can trigger a time-consuming research session.

  • See list-specific company details in one brief
  • Reduce context switching before follow-up
  • Surface missing company context early

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Todoist and Affinity once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create a new automation and name this workflow.
  • 3Tell Notis to find the Affinity company named in each new Todoist task and summarize its list entries, metadata, and any missing match.
  • 4Pick Todoist New Task Created as the trigger.
  • 5Choose a report channel, then test it with one task that includes a company name.

Questions about this workflow

What if the task does not name an Affinity company?

Tell Notis to report that no company match was found and ask for the company name instead of guessing.

Can this include list metadata?

Yes. The workflow uses Affinity's company list entries action, which includes list-specific data and entry metadata when permitted.
