What this workflow does

Your team plans in ClickUp, but you may run your own day from Todoist. Switching between both apps to see what landed on your plate is easy to forget. This workflow puts a copy of every new ClickUp task into Todoist.

The ClickUp trigger fires when a new task is created in the place you connect. FlowMattic passes the task's details to Todoist, where Create Task adds a new item. Map the ClickUp task name as the Todoist content, and add a due date or description if the ClickUp data carries them.

This is a one-way copy made at creation. Later edits, status changes or completion in ClickUp do not reach Todoist, and closing the Todoist task leaves ClickUp unchanged. Task History lists each copy with Todoist's reply.

Freelancer working in a client's ClickUp

A client assigns work in their ClickUp. You see every new task in your own Todoist without checking their workspace each morning.

Manager with a personal task system

A team lead keeps one Todoist list for everything. New ClickUp tasks join it, next to errands and tasks from other projects.

Mobile reminders for ClickUp work

You prefer Todoist on your phone. Each new ClickUp task appears there, so you can see it on the go.

How this workflow runs

What happens at each step once the workflow is on, and what you need before you import it.

  1. Step 1Trigger
    ClickUp Task Created

    Starts a run as soon as someone adds a task in the ClickUp location you connect. The task's name and other details are passed on to map into Todoist.

  2. Step 2Action
    Todoist Create Task

    Creates a new task in Todoist from the ClickUp task. Connect Todoist and map the ClickUp task name, plus any due date or description you want copied.

What you need

  • FlowMatticCore
  • ClickUp AccountAccount
  • Todoist AccountAccount

After importing, map your own data. To keep the template universal, not every step is pre-filled. Open each step in the builder and connect your accounts and fields (channels, lists, sheets, recipients) before you switch the workflow on.

Make it yours

Changes worth making after you import it.

  • Add a Filter after the trigger so only ClickUp tasks assigned to you reach Todoist. Use the assignee data captured in a test run to set the condition.
  • Put the ClickUp task link in the Todoist description, if the trigger data includes it, so you can jump back to the original task.
  • Create a test task in ClickUp after import so FlowMattic records real task fields before you map the Todoist step.

Questions about this workflow

Does completing the Todoist task close it in ClickUp?

No. The copy goes one way and only when the ClickUp task is created. Completing or editing the Todoist task changes nothing in ClickUp.

Will every new ClickUp task be copied to Todoist?

Yes, every task the trigger sees. Add a Filter if you only want, for example, tasks assigned to you.

Do edits to a ClickUp task show up in Todoist later?

No. The workflow only runs when a task is created, so later changes in ClickUp are not sent across.
