Authentication Method
The Todoist plugin uses API key authentication.api_key(default) — Todoist API token used for the REST API
API Token
Step 1: Copy Your Personal API Token
- Log in to Todoist.
- Open Settings → Integrations (or Developer / API token depending on the current UI).
- Find API token (sometimes called personal API token).
- Copy the token — it is unique to your account.
Webhook Secret
Todoist can send webhooks for task and project events. When you register a webhook URL, Todoist provides a client secret or signing material used to verify deliveries (see Todoist’s webhook documentation for the header format).- In Todoist developer settings, create a webhook pointing to your HTTPS endpoint.
- Copy the secret associated with that webhook client.
