Todoist Task Prioritization Automation

This workflow is ideal for:

• Project Managers: Who need to automate task prioritization in Todoist based on specific criteria.
• Freelancers: Looking to streamline their task management and ensure timely prioritization of their work.
• Teams: That require a consistent approach to managing tasks and projects, ensuring everyone is aligned on priorities.
• Productivity Enthusiasts: Who want to enhance their workflow efficiency by automating repetitive tasks.

This workflow addresses the challenge of manually prioritizing tasks in Todoist. It helps users to:

• Automate Task Management: By categorizing tasks based on predefined project priorities, reducing manual effort.
• Enhance Productivity: By ensuring that tasks are prioritized according to user-defined criteria without the need for constant oversight.
• Reduce Errors: By minimizing the risk of human error in task prioritization.

1. Schedule Trigger: The workflow starts on a defined schedule, automatically initiating the process at specified intervals.
2. Get Inbox Tasks: It retrieves all tasks from a specific Todoist project (ID: 938017196).
3. Filter Subtasks: The workflow checks if the retrieved tasks are not subtasks, ensuring only main tasks are processed.
4. Categorize Tasks: Using OpenAI, it determines the appropriate project for each task based on its content, returning either the project name or "other" if it doesn't fit any category.
5. Check for Errors: If the AI fails to categorize the task correctly or if the task is deemed 'other', it triggers the next step.
6. Update Priority: Finally, it updates the priority of the tasks in Todoist based on the categorization results, ensuring that tasks are prioritized correctly.
