Todoist: work management features and setup

Todoist is a task management system with integrations for other apps. It suits a personal or team follow-up list created from events in other tools.

Tool by the Otomatzia editorial team · source content checked on

Overview

Instead of leaving a task inside a message or document, you can link it to a system that tracks due dates and completion. The integration should include a link to the source and enough context to act. Use a dedicated project for automated tasks so you can identify noise, duplicates, and requests that are no longer relevant.

Features

  • Task and project management
  • An integrations library for work tools
  • Task tracking connected to external tools

Business uses

  • Creating a follow-up task in response to a business event
  • Collecting personal actions from multiple sources in one project

Getting started

  • Choose an official integration or connector that supports the task source
  • Set a destination project and a title template that includes a link to the source
  • Check that completing a task or changing its due date does not create a new task

What to check

  • Check whether the integration works in one direction or also syncs changes back
  • Limit automatic task creation so the task list does not become an alert archive
