About

Todoist's API (v1) gives programmatic access to your tasks, projects, labels, reminders, and comments. It's free to use with any Todoist account. You just grab a personal API token from settings. Great for personal productivity hacks, like adding tasks from email, voice notes, or other apps without opening Todoist.
