IFTTT complete task

Loving the new IFTTT features. So far the actions and triggers circle around creating or changing tasks. I was wondering if there is an option to also complete a task through a certain trigger.
I work with different task mgmt tools, RTM for me, Trello at work for my team, ... It would be nice if there would be a connection, eg. if I complete a task there it is completed here too.

Never mind, I just realised what the problem is. How would they know which task it should connect to and complete, right? Sad times. If you have other ideas to make it esaier to work with different tools in parallel, I would be curious to learn about them!

Hi marie.wendt,
Thanks for getting in touch. Along the lines of this and your idea post about linking tasks, something that may help across apps/services is to link to each other using the web app's URLs. You can select a task and copy its URL to get a URL to a Remember The Milk task, and you can save a link to another app/service via the URL field.
Within Remember The Milk, you can use tasks + subtasks to connect your tasks as well. Another way is to use a common property like a tag to pull tasks together. For example, viewing a tag would show all tagged tasks together so that may help.
I understand that may not help in all cases or as thoroughly as other things you are looking for, but hopefully that helps a bit at least!
