In this tutorial, we will explore how to use Pabbly Connect to integrate Todoist and Telegram. This integration allows you to send messages in Telegram whenever a task is completed in Todoist. Pabbly Connect acts as the bridge between these two applications, enabling seamless communication without any coding knowledge.

To get started, visit the Pabbly Connect website and log into your account. If you don’t have an account, you can sign up for free. This integration can be set up quickly, allowing you to automate your workflow efficiently.

2. Creating a New Workflow in Pabbly Connect

First, we need to create a new workflow in Pabbly Connect. After logging in, click on the ‘Create New Workflow’ button. Name your workflow ‘Todoist to Telegram’ to keep things organized.

Next, select Todoist as the application in the workflow. In the trigger event dropdown, choose ‘New Task’ as this will trigger the automation whenever a new task is created. The steps to set this up are as follows:

• Log into your Pabbly Connect account.
• Click on ‘Create New Workflow’.
• Name your workflow as ‘Todoist to Telegram’.
• Select Todoist and choose ‘New Task’ as the trigger event.

After setting up the trigger, copy the webhook URL provided by Pabbly Connect. This URL will be used in Todoist to establish the connection.

3. Setting Up Todoist for Integration with Pabbly Connect

Now, log into your Todoist account and create a new app for integration. Click on ‘Create New App’ in the App Management section. Name it ‘Todoist Integration with Telegram’ and create the app.

Once the app is created, you need to set up the webhook. Paste the copied webhook URL from Pabbly Connect into the ‘Webhook Callback URL’ field in Todoist. Activate the webhook to allow Todoist to send data to Pabbly Connect. The steps are as follows:

• Log into your Todoist account.
• Create a new app named ‘Todoist Integration with Telegram’.
• Paste the webhook URL from Pabbly Connect into the ‘Webhook Callback URL’ field.
• Activate the webhook.

Now, every time a new task is created in Todoist, it will trigger the webhook and send data to Pabbly Connect.

4. Integrating Telegram with Pabbly Connect

Next, we will integrate Telegram into our workflow. In Pabbly Connect, add a new action step and select Telegram as the app. Choose ‘Send a Text Message’ as the action event. This will allow you to send messages to your Telegram bot whenever a new task is created in Todoist.

To connect Telegram to Pabbly Connect, you need a bot token. Use BotFather in Telegram to create a new bot and get the token. Follow these steps:

Open Telegram and search for BotFather. Create a new bot using the command ‘/newbot’. Copy the token provided by BotFather.

Paste the token into Pabbly Connect and set up the chat ID for your Telegram group where the bot will send messages. This completes the integration setup.

5. Testing the Integration Between Todoist and Telegram

Now that we have set up both Todoist and Telegram in Pabbly Connect, it’s time to test the integration. Create a new task in Todoist to check if the message is sent to Telegram. For example, create a task titled ‘First Step Integration’.

After creating the task, return to Pabbly Connect and check if the data has been captured. You should see the task details displayed. If everything is set up correctly, a message will be sent to your Telegram bot with the task details. Here’s how to test:

Create a new task in Todoist. Check your Telegram for the message. Verify that the message contains the correct task details.

Once confirmed, you have successfully integrated Todoist with Telegram using Pabbly Connect. Now, every time a new task is created, a message will be sent automatically.
