Google Calendar Todoist Task Sync from Workload automatically turns each calendar entry into a detailed Todoist task. By watching your chosen Google Calendar and directing tasks to your preferred Todoist project, Workload ensures every appointment—be it a client call, team meeting, or personal reminder—lands in your to-do list with title, due date, and notes. It’s easy to set up, even if you’ve never used automation before—no tech skills needed.
Setup is a one-time process: connect your accounts, select your calendar, map your fields, and flip the switch. After that, Workload handles the rest, so you can focus on what really matters.
