Bulk or automatically import Todoist tasks to Sunsama
David Khim
Currently as part of my daily planning, i just drag all tasks from todoist on that day over to the same day in Sunsama then time block and plan my day and defer tasks as needed.
Would be great if I could just automatically add all or a bunch of todoist tasks to sunsama based on the todoist task date.

I'm currently using the Zapier beta integration for auto-add from Todoist.
It works well!
EDIT: I originally commented about this not addressing the two-way sync, however: two way sync works by adding the URL field in Zapier! Well done guys

Rob Di Toro: Rob, this is awesome. I just made a pro-tip video using your exact technique here for an upcoming newsletter, thanks!

Alex Cunningham I've found that whilst you could use a specific section or label in Todoist to trigger the Zap to create a task in Sunsama, it doesn't work for 'old' todoist items - it only works when creating a new Todoist task (and adding the label/section at the time).
So I've worked out that the best thing to do is to crate a Todoist project as a trigger, eg: #AddToSunsama, so both creation and moving old todoist items to this project will add to Sunsama.
Please see screenshots of my Zap below for an example of a Todoist -> Sunsama workflow, that will allow you to add new
and old
to-dos to Sunsama.Alex Cunningham
Rob Di Toro Perfect, this is awesome. Yes, because most of these triggers need something "new" like a new task, you'd need to hack it like this to get already created tasks. This is a great technique, and once you get through that backlog of "old" Todoist tasks, you could possibly get rid of, or just ignore, this Zap!

Same for Notion!

Yes please! A much needed feature for anyone who uses another app (e.g. Todoist) to already have their list of Today tasks ready, for daily planning in Sunsama.

Hi,
I'd love to be able to add "all" tasks as an option to today.
Use case - I browse to the Todoist integration, see there are several tasks with a due date of today (using the "Today" filter) - rather than going through each one and adding to today in Sunsama, much easier to hit one button and add them all.
Cheers

I like this idea, but prefer to bulk add rather than automatically. Also really need the other two enhancements to go along with it: "Parse

notation as planned time when importing Todoist task" and"Todoist projects and Sunsama channels"
