How-to
How to move from Todoist to TodoCity
Copy your API token in Todoist (Settings → Integrations → Developer), paste it in TodoCity's Settings → Move in → Todoist, check the preview and click Move in. TodoCity brings your projects, sections, tasks, sub-tasks, labels, comments and completed tasks straight to your Mac. The token is used only for the import and never saved.
Steps
- Copy your Todoist API token. In Todoist (web or app), open Settings → Integrations → Developer and click Copy API token.
- Connect. In TodoCity, open Settings → Move in → Todoist, paste the token and click Connect. Big accounts take a minute while completed tasks come in.
- Check the preview. Untick any project you'd rather leave behind; choose whether to bring completed tasks and whether priorities 1–3 become #p1–#p3.
- Click Move in. TodoCity backs itself up first, so you can undo it. Running it again later brings only new tasks.
No token? Use CSV files
Export each project with ⋯ → Export as CSV in Todoist (or unzip a backup from Todoist's Settings → Backups), then choose No token? Use CSV files instead and pick all the .csv files. CSV exports don't include completed tasks, so your city starts dark.
