Sync Linear issues to Todoist tasks automatically (create, update, close)
## ✨ Try It Out!
Sync your **Linear issues to Todoist** automatically with this n8n workflow. When an issue is created, updated, or completed in Linear, a corresponding task is created, updated, or closed in Todoist.
---
## ⚙️ How It Works
- Triggered by issue changes via `linearTrigger`
- Routes based on action (`create`, `update`, `remove`)
- Checks if a matching Todoist task already exists (via issue ID)
- If the issue has:
- A **due date**
- And is assigned to **you** (`[email protected]`)
➤ Then it creates or updates the task accordingly
- If the issue is marked **Done**, the Todoist task is closed
- If it's deleted in Linear, the Todoist task is also removed
- Sub-issues get enriched with their parent title for clarity
---
## 🛠️ Customization
- Replace `[email protected]` with your **Linear email** in the `IF` nodes
- Adjust which states are synced (e.g. “In Progress”, “Todo”...)
- Customize the Todoist project, labels, or title formatting
---
## ⚠️ Bi-directional Sync?
This workflow is **one-way** (Linear ➜ Todoist).
Bi-directional syncing *might* be possible but isn’t handled here—it would be a cool upgrade!
---
## ✅ Requirements
- n8n with OAuth2 access to **Linear** and **Todoist**
- Your **Linear email** set in the workflow for filtering
- A target Todoist project (default: *Inbox*)
