How to set end dates for Google Calendar events synced to Todoist in Zapier

Hi ​@michael291 

Help us have more context by posting screenshots showing how your Zap steps are outlined and configured in EDIT mode with the field mappings visible.

TIP: Click field labels that are underlined to see tooltips with more info that may provide guidance.

Hello ​@Troy Tessalone 

thanks for your reply. This is what my Zap looks like (please see screenshots below). I tried every combination in the “Due Date” Fields (i.e. “Start Date”-”End Date”) but nothing did work.  

Thanks for your help, M.

​@michael291 

The 2 Due Date fields are optional.

Did you try clicking on the field labels to see tooltips?

Post screenshots showing each field tooltip to give us more context.

Hello ​@Troy Tessalone 

here are the tooltips of both date fields…

​@michael291 

Based on the tooltips, sounds like only 1 is needed.

Try using just the Due Date (Raw Formatted)

​@Troy Tessalone 

Okay, but then I will only have the end date (and time), not the start date (and time). I need to have the duration in Todoist. So if an event starts at 5pm and has a duration of 2 hours it should end at 7pm.

Appears the Todoist Create Task action is configured to not expose the Duration.

You may have to explore using one of the options:

• API Request
  • https://help.zapier.com/hc/en-us/articles/12899607716493-Create-an-API-Request-action
• Custom Action
  • https://help.zapier.com/hc/en-us/articles/16276574838925-Custom-Actions-in-Zapier

Todoist API Endpoint for creating Task that lists all of the available fields:

Thanks a lot. I will test that.
