# Todoist Integration

Import tasks from Todoist into Ellie (and sync them!)

{% hint style="info" %}
This integration was released recently! If you have issues please reach out to Chris (<chris@aloa.co>) for support :)
{% endhint %}

## How it works

Our Todoist integration allows you to sync items from any (or multiple) Todoist projects into an Ellie list.

These tasks will also have a special Todoist icon and a deep link to open it in Todoist.

## How to enable the integration

1. Go to Settings -> Integrations in Ellie
2. Link the Todoist integration
3. Once your Todoist workspace is linked, click into it and add a new database connection
4. Select the Todoist project + relevant filters and import will begin from the Todoist database into Ellie
5. Ellie tasks from this integration will have a Todoist icon

## 2-way sync

The integration allows you to sync data back to Todoist if you choose to enable it

{% hint style="info" %}
Note on deletion: deleting a task in Ellie does **NOT** delete it in Todoist
{% endhint %}

## Accidentally imported 1000 tasks?

You can click the 3 dot menu at the right and an option to delete all imported tasks is at the bottom :)\
\
This is great if you put the wrong filter and accidently imported too many tasks.
