Create a PDF brief from every relevant Todoist task
Capture the request once in Todoist and get a ready-to-share PDF brief without rebuilding it elsewhere.
Trigger
New Task Created
Trigger when a new task is added to Todoist.
Action
Create Document
Tool to create a PDF or Excel document synchronously from HTML content or URL. Use when you need to generate a document file from HTML data. The document is returned immediately as a downloadable file. Either document_content or document_url must be provided, but not both.
Why this helps
Important task context stays trapped in a task and takes too long to format for clients or collaborators.
- Reduce copy and paste between task and document tools
- Create consistent briefs from plain language
- Keep a downloadable artifact linked to the original request
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Todoist and DocRaptor once in the Notis portal.
- 2Open Automations, choose New Automation, and name this PDF brief workflow.
- 3Tell Notis to turn each new task containing enough brief content into a formatted PDF using DocRaptor.
- 4Pick Todoist New Task Created as the trigger.
- 5Choose a report channel, then test with one real task that includes the brief content or an HTML source.
Questions about this workflow
What should the Todoist task contain?
Include the brief text or a document URL. If required content is missing, tell Notis how to request it before creating the PDF.
Can the PDF be created immediately?
Yes. This workflow uses DocRaptor Create Document for a synchronous result.
