How to sync completed tasks between Google Tasks and Microsoft ToDo

Question

Hi,

I use Google Tasks as my main actions list. However some actions also come in via Microsoft ToDo. So I created successfully a zap that creates a new entry in Google Tasks, when an entry is created in Microsoft ToDo.

So far so good.

Now I would like to delete or at least complete the actions in Microsoft ToDo once they are marked as completed in Google Tasks. How do I set up the zap?

I am stucked because during setting up the zap I am asked to select a specific task. But this seems not suitable as I want it as a general rule. The tasks have the same title in both apps so it should work somehow, but I do not now how.

I would appreciate your help!

Best regards

Michaela

Hi @MichaelaHBefore you can use Complete Task in Microsoft ToDo you need to use another action to find the task and then map the task ID as a custom value in Complete Task action, like this:Same for Google task as well, Find the task ID then map it to the next Google Task Update action.
