Set the Todoist trigger as “Task completed”

Add the Todoist trigger to initiate your playbook's actions for every completed task.

To do this, click "Add trigger" in your playbook. Select the "Task completed" trigger option from the dropdown menu under Todoist. It will enable your playbook to automatically identify newly completed tasks and trigger necessary actions.

If you still need to connect your Todoist account to Relay.app, a prompt will guide you through the connection process.

Add "Get task" and “Update task” step in Google Tasks

Integrate the Google Tasks automation into your playbook to ensure the prompt update of Google Tasks whenever you complete a task in Todoist.

Click the "Add step" button, then locate "Get task" and “Update task” automation for Google Tasks and input the mandatory and relevant details.

If your Google Tasks account still needs to be connected to Relay.app, you will be prompted to complete that connection. Make sure to allow the necessary permissions for Relay.app to sync with your Google Tasks account.

Activate your playbook

Activating your playbook is the last step in the process. Once you turn it on, it will automatically update your Google Tasks for every completed task in Todoist without requiring manual intervention.

To activate your playbook, click the toggle button at the header. Before activating, we recommend performing a test run of your playbook to ensure all the steps work seamlessly together.
