What happens if I edit a task in Todoist after GAIA synced it from Notion?

By default, Todoist edits don't overwrite the Notion source. GAIA treats Todoist as the execution layer and Notion as the planning layer. You can configure bidirectional sync if you want changes in either tool to update the other.

Does GAIA handle Notion's checkbox blocks specifically?

Yes. GAIA recognizes Notion checkbox blocks as tasks and can toggle them when the corresponding Todoist task is completed, keeping your Notion pages accurate.

Automate Notion + Todoist with GAIA

Turn Notion pages into Todoist tasks and keep both in sync

Notion is where plans live. Todoist is where tasks get done. The divide between planning documents and actionable to-do lists means action items get buried in Notion pages while your Todoist inbox doesn't reflect what your plans require. GAIA connects the two so plans translate automatically into tasks.

5 things you can automate

Everything GAIA can do when Notion and Todoist are connected.

Extract tasks from Notion project pages

GAIA reads Notion project pages, identifies action items and checkbox items, and creates corresponding Todoist tasks with due dates pulled from any dates mentioned in the Notion content.

Weekly review sync

During weekly reviews in Notion, action items you capture in your review page automatically flow to Todoist as tasks for the coming week, closing the loop between reflection and execution.

Meeting notes to tasks

Action items captured in Notion meeting notes become Todoist tasks assigned to the right project, so next-step commitments from meetings don't live only in documents.

Todoist completion synced to Notion

When you complete a Todoist task, GAIA marks the corresponding Notion checkbox as checked, keeping your Notion project pages current with actual task completion status.

Goal tracking across both tools

Quarterly goals set in Notion generate Todoist tasks that break down each goal into actionable steps, ensuring your big-picture plans have concrete daily actions attached.

How to set it up

Connect Notion and Todoist to GAIA in three steps.

1
Connect Notion and Todoist to GAIA
Authorize GAIA with your Notion workspace (selecting the relevant pages/databases) and your Todoist account.
2
Configure sync direction and frequency
Choose whether sync flows one-way (Notion to Todoist), the other direction, or bidirectionally. Set how often GAIA should check for new items to sync.
3
GAIA bridges planning and execution
Plans in Notion translate to tasks in Todoist automatically. Completed tasks flow back to Notion. Your planning and execution systems become one coherent workflow.
