Schedule dated Todoist tasks in Google Calendar

Put time-specific tasks on your calendar as soon as they land in Todoist.

Trigger

New Task Created

Trigger when a new task is added to Todoist.

Action

Quick Add Event

Parses natural language text to quickly create a basic google calendar event with its title, date, and time, suitable for simple scheduling; does not support direct attendee addition or recurring events, and `calendar id` must be valid if not 'primary'.

Why this helps

Tasks with a specific time can get buried in a list before you add them to your calendar.

  • Reduce manual copying between your task list and calendar.
  • Make dated commitments visible alongside meetings.
  • Skip tasks that do not have a clear date and time.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Todoist and Google Calendar once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3Tell Notis to create a basic calendar event for each new Todoist task that clearly states a date and time, using the task text as the event description.
  • 4Pick the Todoist New Task Created trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real task that includes a specific date and time.

Questions about this workflow

Will every new Todoist task become an event?

The instruction asks Notis to create an event only when the task text makes a date and time clear. Tasks without a clear time should be skipped.

Can Quick Add create guests or recurring events?

No. Google Calendar Quick Add creates a basic event and does not support direct attendee addition or recurring events.
