Turn one hiring task into a ready-to-use employee record without retyping details.

Trigger

New Task Created

Trigger when a new task is added to Todoist.

Action

Create Employee

Tool to create a new employee in BreatheHR. Use when you need to add a new employee record with their personal information, contact details, and employment information. Required fields are first_name, last_name, email, and company_join_date.

Why this helps

New hire information gets scattered across task comments and onboarding notes, causing duplicate entry and delays.

  • Reduce duplicate data entry
  • Start onboarding faster
  • Keep hiring tasks connected to HR records

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Todoist and Breathe HR once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation and describe that approved new hire tasks should create employee records using the supplied details.
  • 3Pick Todoist New Task Created as the trigger.
  • 4Choose a report channel, then test with one real hiring task containing first name, last name, email, and company join date.
