Problem:

If I create a task from a random block in my roam graph, TTM will create a task in Todoist via the API, and add a link to the block where the task was originally created, in the task's description.

The problem for me is that this link does not go straight to the block when clicked inside Roam, it opens Roam in a new tab and I have to input my graph's password again.

Solution:

Ideal solution would be to:

  • create a task from a given block in my roam graph
  • TTM creates a Todoist task via API, adding the text from the block to the task title and saves the block ID to the task description, e.g. roamblock:f39kfj8
  • When the TTM plugin imports tasks from Todoist, it checks whether there is a roam block ID in the task description, and if there is it create a block reference, e.g. ((f39kfj8)) where the task title would go

This way, the text from the task would display in Roam, but you'd also get a clickable block reference link to the block that the Todoist task was created from
