Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Todoist and Coupa in the Notis portal once.
- 2Create an automation in Automations with a name and prompt.
- 3Tell Notis to find the Coupa approval referenced in each new Todoist task and approve it only when the task clearly authorizes approval.
- 4Pick the Todoist New Task Created trigger.
- 5Choose a report channel, then test with one real approval task.
Questions about this workflow
What if the task does not identify an approval?
Notis can report that it could not safely identify a matching Coupa approval instead of acting.
Can I include approval instructions in the task?
Yes. Put the approval context or Coupa approval ID in the task description.
