IFTTT integration

jnievele says:
It would be nice if you could link up with IFTTT.com - for example, we could set RTM as a trigger in IFTTT, when a specific task is marked as completed this would then trigger an action in IFTTT (or vice versa, something that triggers IFTTT creates a new task in RTM with configurable options... could be done via email already, but direct integration would make it easier)

I'll second this idea. I've been playing with ifttt for a week now and keep thinking that it would work well with RTM.

I think this is up to ifttt. I am pretty sure they'll be adding an rtm channel, but I'd recommend leaving some feedback with ifttt.com asking for this functionality.

Why don't we ever get new features? RTM alternatives are looking better and better.

When I discovered ifttt I was disappointed there was no RTM channel. So many possibilities, Evernote/RTM for a start!

jzapin says:
Definitely. For those of us who are GTD junkies and are looking for ways to automate processes, IFTTT seems like a great tool. I love RTM and have no desire to leave. But if another task manager had IFTTT integration, I might consider it.

That would be amazing! With basic task management (create/delay/complete) available both as triggers and actions, I would be able to receive the tasks from all important places and also manage everything from anywhere as well. Please make this work!

I use IFTTT a lot. Having a way to add tasks to RTM from IFTTT triggers would be easier than the workaround of emailing tasks to my secret RTM address.

sherry_zhou_98 says:
Yes, I've tried for months to get the atom or rss feeds to work with ifttt. I've made my lists public (something that the security-conscious side of me cringes at), tried using http:// and https:// versions of the feeds, and tried both atom and rss feeds. Nothing seems to work with 100% success. Sometimes I'll get the ifttt recipe to trigger, but if I try it again in 5 minutes, it won't work. Similarly, a combination of publicly accessible vs private/http vs https/atom vs rss that works for one list will not work when I try it on a different list.

This has been very frustrating in case you can't tell.... Please let me know if you do manage to get it to work, you deserve a medal.

1. I've developed a test integration with IFTTT and it took me about 5 hours start to finish. It's fairly easy.

2. Integrating with IFTTT is free marketing. As an IFTTT user, I often look at the companies (often startups) that have just created IFTTT channels and sign up. IFTTT does a great job blasting their large community with updates on who created new channels.

babasach says:
I agree with ledhed2222! I discovered a lot of new services that I love and now use daily through IFTTT.

Plus, allowing integration with business tools like Salesforce, Trello or Yammer would be a great boost in productivity!

mqheel says:
Why hasn't this been implemented? Todoist is everywhere on Zapier and IFTTT. RTM is nowhere. This was requested 4 years ago! This is the new way people are working. All the programs I use integrate with Todoist easily. Even newcomers like MeisterTask have integrations already. Get with it RTM!!!

Agree with mqheel. This should happen asap.

Yea a lack of integration with other tools is getting old around here. I want to be supportive of you all, but as a Pro user FOR NINE YEARS i'm jumping ship to todoist as soon as they offer better keyboard shortcuts. :(

ignotus0001 says:
While I like the new UI changes, I must echo the comments of jason.lemieux. I have one foot out the door. Please add IFTTT support, and support for Sunrise, another popular app on Android that integrates calendars and tasks. ToDoIst and wunderlist are already there guys!

I love IFTTT and am beginning to love RTM. I strongly echo this thread. IFTTT opens the door to many useful features that Bob doesn't have to build!
Posted 8 years ago
thomasserio says:
This is definitely needed and is something ToDoist has in its feature list already. While you can simulate sending tasks to RTM by using the email channel (from Evernote for example), unless you never want to use the IFTTT email for anything else you'll need to create a separate IFTTT account for RTM. Not an elegant workaround...

I have been using IFTTT to email tasks to myself, and it works pretty well, but I am imagining IFTTT could help alot especially right after Christmas when the Amazon Dot will be prolific. My wife could add honey-do's to my RTM list sut by asking Alexa. Nice.

tomcal says:
When I used Toodledo, I used an IFTTT recipe that would trigger for each completed task. It would append to a specific note in Evernote, including the task name, date of completion, notes and tags. The tags would then become Evernote tags, if they weren't there already. That Evernote note became a reference of all tasks (and details) I completed. Each week, I would move that note into a reference notebook and date it. Then the IFTTT recipe would create a new note and start appending to that. It was nice to have a weekly note of everything I did, totally searchable in Evernote forever. A quick search in Evernote finds old Toodledo task notes like old phone numbers I jotted down, when I spoke with someone, when I completed a task, etc. Very handy. I hope we can get that with RTM.
Posted 7 years ago
tomcal says:
That also allowed me to remain in Toodledo more often, not needing to go into Evernote or somewhere else to jot down the (phone number, part number for the dryer, product key for that new software, etc.). By staying in Toodledo and jotting down that info, I knew that it would show up in Evernote and be there forever. I have a bad habit of getting sidetracked when I leave my task manager to do anything else...

You have to know this is a worthy feature when so many rtm users are already bothering with the extra effort (email a smart add to rtm) simulate it.

I see that I can set a custom action. I suggest that one trigger is adding a task to a smart list. I can only select the trigger 'New task added in list' which lets me choose from the generic lists.
