Connect Google Tasks and Todoist to eliminate double entry and keep your tasks in sync
Automate the flow between your Google Tasks and Todoist to save hours each week and ensure nothing falls through the cracks.
Overview
Summary
Many teams use Google Tasks for quick, lightweight to-dos and Todoist for structured project planning—but managing both manually leads to duplication and missed deadlines. With Google Tasks integrations, you can automatically sync tasks between the two platforms so updates in one reflect instantly in the other. Whether you're a freelancer juggling personal projects or a manager coordinating team workflows, this integration keeps your task ecosystem unified without lifting a finger.
Why integrate Google Tasks with Todoist?
Benefits
Connecting Google Tasks and Todoist eliminates the friction of manual task entry and reduces the risk of inconsistent data across tools. Teams using both platforms often waste time copying tasks between systems, leading to outdated to-do lists and confusion about priorities. This integration ensures every task added in Google Tasks—whether from Gmail, Calendar, or mobile—automatically appears in your Todoist projects with full context. It’s especially valuable for remote teams, busy professionals, and anyone who relies on Google Workspace for communication but prefers Todoist’s advanced task management features.
The result? Better visibility, fewer missed deadlines, and more time spent doing actual work instead of managing your to-do lists.
Use cases that actually matter
Real-world
Streamline client workflows
When a new client request comes in via Gmail, automatically create a task in Google Tasks and sync it to a dedicated Todoist project for your account manager—keeping everyone aligned without manual copying.
Centralize team reminders
Use Todoist integrations to turn daily Google Tasks into recurring Todoist items with labels, due dates, and priority levels—perfect for team standups or weekly check-ins.
Sync personal and professional goals
Link your personal Google Tasks (like “call dentist”) with your Notion goal tracker using Google Tasks Notion integrations so progress in one space reflects in your broader productivity system.
💡 Pro Tip: Use labels in Todoist (like “Urgent” or “Waiting”) and map them to priority levels in Google Tasks for smarter filtering across both platforms.
Step-by-step setup
No code
Workflow
Start by connecting Google Tasks and Todoist through Google Tasks Trello integrations, then choose “New Task in Google Tasks” as your trigger.
Set up the action to create a matching task in Todoist, mapping fields like title, due date, project, and notes—optionally add tags or assignees based on the source context.
Test the automation with a sample task, then enable it to run live. Expand later by adding filters (e.g., only sync tasks with “Work” label) or connecting to calendar events.
Advanced automation ideas
Build a multi-step workflow where a completed Google Task triggers a notification in Slack and updates a Google Sheet with completion timestamps. Or use conditional logic: if a task in Google Tasks has a due date within 24 hours, auto-assign it to a “Urgent” project in Todoist and notify your team via email. You can even tie this into your CRM or email tool to log task activity alongside client interactions.

Do I need technical skills to set this up?
Nope—Appy Pie Automate is built for non-developers. You can connect Google Tasks and Todoist with simple point-and-click steps, just like dragging blocks in a visual builder.

Can I customize which fields sync between the two apps?
Absolutely. You choose exactly what gets synced: task title, description, due date, project, priority, labels, and even custom fields. You can also set filters so only tasks with specific keywords, labels, or due dates trigger the sync—giving you full control over what flows between platforms.
What happens if a task fails to sync?
Appy Pie Automate automatically retries failed actions up to three times and logs every run in your activity history. You’ll get email alerts for errors, so you can quickly fix issues like missing permissions or outdated credentials. Plus, you can pause or edit workflows anytime without breaking existing automations.
Is my data secure when syncing Google Tasks and Todoist?
Yes. All data transfers are encrypted in transit and at rest. We never store your login credentials—we use OAuth2 secure authentication, and your task data never leaves our GDPR- and SOC 2-compliant infrastructure. You own your data, and we keep it private.
