How to Trigger Todoist Tasks from Jira Issue Creation via Zapier

Updated on:

Use this interactive demo to learn how to automatically create Todoist tasks whenever a new Jira issue is created.

Quick summary

This tutorial shows how to automate Todoist task creation from Jira issue events using a Zapier Zap. By connecting Jira Software Cloud as the trigger and Todoist as the action, teams can instantly sync project work across both tools without manual effort.


Steps

  1. From your Zapier dashboard, select Zap to start building a new automation.
  2. Click on the Trigger field to open the event selection panel.
  3. Search and select Jira Software Cloud as the trigger app.
  4. Select New Issue as the trigger event.
  5. Connect and authorize your Jira account in Zapier.
  6. Select the Jira project you want to monitor and click Continue.
  7. Click Test trigger to fetch a recently created issue from your Jira project and verify the setup.
  8. Choose Todoist as the action app.
  9. Select Create Task as the action event.
  10. Connect and authorize your Todoist account.
  11. Customize the task details in Todoist and click Continue.
  12. Hit Test step to confirm the Jira issue data successfully creates a task in Todoist.
  13. After successful testing, click Publish to activate your Zap.

📌 Why this matters

Connecting Jira and Todoist via Zapier eliminates the manual work of duplicating tasks across project management tools. Every time a new Jira issue is created, a corresponding Todoist task is generated automatically, keeping engineering and personal productivity workflows in sync. This integration is especially valuable for teams that track development tickets in Jira while managing individual action items in Todoist. Automating this handoff reduces context-switching, prevents tasks from falling through the cracks, and accelerates cross-tool project visibility.
