Why Connect Salesforce to Todoist?

No single source of truth when tasks live in two disconnected tools, so staff second-guess which system has the correct information

Reporting across Salesforce and Todoist requires painful manual exports and spreadsheet merges

Salesforce uses a REST API while Todoist uses REST + Webhook, requiring careful middleware to translate data formats between the two platforms

Transaction data in Salesforce requires manual verification against Todoist, increasing audit risk

New team members take longer to onboard because they must learn manual workarounds to keep Salesforce and Todoist aligned

Client engagement details in Salesforce and time-tracking data in Todoist do not align, making billing inaccurate

Task updates in Salesforce are invisible to the team using Todoist, leading to duplicated effort and missed deadlines

How We Help

Every week without this integration costs your Professional Services and Financial Services business 8+ hours/week in manual data handling between Salesforce and Todoist. Our Harvard-educated consultants build a sync that eliminates that waste permanently. On the technical side, Salesforce uses a REST API with OAuth authentication, and Todoist authenticates via Bearer, which our team handles as part of the build.

You review and approve the results before we switch to live. This approach minimises risk and ensures accuracy.
