Why this helps

  • Keep implementation work and delivery connected
  • Reduce forgotten deployment steps

  • 1Connect Todoist and CircleCI in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation with a name and prompt describing which new tasks should start a pipeline.
  • 3Pick the Todoist New Task Created trigger.
  • 4Choose a report channel, then test with one real task.
