1. Setting Up Pabbly Connect for Todoist and Hubstaff Integration

To start automating your workflow, access Pabbly Connect by navigating to the Pabbly website and logging into your account. If you don’t have an account, sign up for a free account to get started. Once logged in, you will be directed to the Pabbly Connect dashboard where you can create your automation workflows.

Click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button and name your workflow, for instance, ‘Todoist to Hubstaff’. This name will help you identify your automation later. After naming your workflow, click on ‘Create’ to proceed to the next step.

2. Configuring the Todoist Trigger in Pabbly Connect

In this section, you will set up the trigger in Pabbly Connect that listens for new tasks created in Todoist. In the trigger window, search for and select ‘Todoist’ as your application. Next, choose the trigger event as ‘New Task’. This event will initiate the workflow whenever a new task is added to your Todoist account.

• Search for ‘Todoist’ in the app selection.
• Select ‘New Task’ as the trigger event.
• Copy the webhook URL provided by Pabbly Connect.

After selecting the trigger event, Pabbly Connect will generate a webhook URL. This URL is essential for connecting your Todoist account to Pabbly Connect. Follow the instructions provided in Pabbly Connect to set up the webhook in your Todoist account, ensuring that the integration works seamlessly.

3. Creating a New Task in Todoist

With the webhook set up, it’s time to test the integration by creating a new task in Todoist. Navigate to your Todoist dashboard and click on ‘Add Task’. Enter a task name and description, for example, ‘Check Integration’ and ‘Please check the integration of Todoist with Pabbly Connect’. Once complete, click ‘Add Task’.

After creating the task, return to Pabbly Connect. You should see a response indicating that the new task has been captured successfully. This response contains all the details of the task you just created, including the task name, description, and any other relevant data.

4. Setting Up Hubstaff Action in Pabbly Connect

Now that you have successfully captured the task details from Todoist, the next step is to set up the action in Pabbly Connect that sends this data to Hubstaff. In the action window, search for ‘Hubstaff’ and select it as your application. Choose ‘Create Project’ as the action event to create a new project in Hubstaff based on the Todoist task.

• Select ‘Hubstaff’ as the action application.
• Choose ‘Create Project’ as the action event.
• Map the task name and description from Todoist to the project name and description in Hubstaff.

After mapping the necessary fields, click ‘Save and Send Test Request’. If everything is set up correctly, you will receive a positive response indicating that a new project has been created in Hubstaff with the same details as the Todoist task.

5. Verifying the Integration in Hubstaff

To confirm that the integration is functioning properly, log into your Hubstaff account and navigate to the Project Management section. Here, you can view all projects created. You should see the newly created project named ‘Check Integration’, along with the description you provided in Todoist.

Repeat the process by adding another task in Todoist to further test the integration. Ensure that the task details appear in Hubstaff as a new project. This verification step is crucial to ensure that Pabbly Connect is successfully automating the workflow between Todoist and Hubstaff.
