Set the Google Tasks trigger as “New task added”

Add the Google Tasks trigger to initiate your playbook's actions for every task added.

To do this, click "Add trigger" in your playbook. Select the "New task added" trigger option from the dropdown menu under Google Tasks. It will enable your playbook to automatically identify newly added tasks and trigger necessary actions.

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

Add the “Create task” step in Todoist

Integrate the Todoist automation into your playbook to ensure the prompt creation of Todoist tasks from Google Tasks.

Click the "Add step" button, then locate the “Create task” automation for Todoist and input the mandatory and relevant details.

If your Todoist 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 Todoist account.

Activate your playbook

Activating your playbook is the last step in the process. Once you turn it on, it will automatically add new Google Tasks to Todoist as tasks 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.
