Authorize the Snapshots API by granting the requested scopes (saas/location.read) and generating an API key to securely authenticate requests.
During setup, you’ll authorize Todoist to receive data from Snapshots API and allow it to create or update tasks, projects, and labels as needed.
GET /locations — Retrieve a list of location records to drive Todoist tasks and reminders. Additional endpoints will be documented in the API reference as they are released.
Trigger: when a new location is added or updated in Snapshots API.
Action: create or update a Todoist task with location name and coordinates.
GET /locations
location_id, location_name, latitude, longitude
Trigger: when a Todoist task status changes.
Actions: update the Snapshots location record with status or add a comment.
POST /locations/update
location_id, task_status
Trigger: location data changes detected.
Actions: create Todoist reminders linked to the location data.
GET /reminders?location_id={id}
location_id, reminder_id, due_date
Create complex workflows without writing code using simple triggers and actions.
Accelerate onboarding and reporting by syncing real-time data between systems.
Reduce manual data entry and errors with automated task creation.
This glossary defines core elements and processes used in the Snapshots API and Todoist integration.
A specific URL path and HTTP verb that performs an operation on a server, such as GET /locations.
The method for verifying identity, typically via API keys or OAuth tokens, to securely access data.
A real-time notification mechanism where an app sends an HTTP POST to a URL when an event occurs.
Using rules and triggers to perform actions automatically without manual input.
Idea: whenever a new location is added in Snapshots API, automatically create a Todoist task with the location name.
Idea: update a Todoist task when location data changes, with due dates and labels.
Idea: compile daily summaries of locations into a Todoist note or task.
Grant permissions for the Snapshots API to access Todoist data and set the required scope saas/location.read.
Define how location fields map to Todoist task fields (name, notes, due date, labels).
Run test triggers, monitor logs, and activate the workflow in production.
The Snapshots API provides programmatic access to location data that you can use to automate Todoist workflows. By connecting this API to Todoist, you can trigger task creation, updates, and reminders based on location events. This integration is designed to be no-code, enabling you to connect services without writing custom code.
Required permissions include the saas/location.read scope to retrieve location data. You may also need write permissions if you plan to update Todoist tasks or add new records in Snapshots API. Ensure you grant the minimum necessary access to maintain security.
No extensive coding is required. The integration uses triggers and actions that map fields between Snapshots API and Todoist. You can configure the mappings in the app dashboard and test the setup with sandbox data before going live.
You can automate creating Todoist tasks from new locations, updating tasks when location data changes, and scheduling reminders based on location events. Additional automation patterns can be built as you expand field mappings.
Security is handled through OAuth/API keys and scoped permissions. Data transmitted between Snapshots API and Todoist is encrypted in transit, and you should rotate keys regularly and monitor usage for anomalies.
Yes. Use the integration’s test mode or sandbox environment to run triggers without affecting your live data. Review logs and adjust mappings before deploying to production.
Endpoint details are documented in the API reference for Snapshots API. Start with GET /locations to fetch location data, and expand to additional endpoints as you implement more automation.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
