Connect Todoist to Notion in 2026 Four routes, and what each one does.

Todoist and Notion don't sync out of the box. Todoist's own page for it is an embed. Anything more needs a third-party tool. Here is every route, what it syncs, and what it costs.

I build Driftto, an iPhone app that writes new items into Todoist and Notion. People who use both keep asking how to connect them, so I went through every route I could find. I compared the tools themselves in best Todoist integrations and best Notion integrations; this page is only about linking the two.

In October 2026 I went through Todoist's help center and the makers' own pages and pricing pages for each route. What a tool does or skips comes from those pages. Where a page doesn't say, I say so.

The short answer

Todoist has no built-in sync with Notion. Its help page describes an embed that shows Todoist inside a Notion page. To copy tasks between them, use 2sync or Pleexy, both two-way and paid after a 14-day trial, or build a one-way rule in Zapier or Make.

Todoist's help center has one article on Notion, and it is about embedding. You open Notion in a web browser, type /embed, and paste Todoist's address, https://todoist.com/app. After you log in to Todoist inside the block, your projects and upcoming tasks show next to your notes. You can also paste the link to one project, filter or label view to embed just that.

It is a window, not a copy. The article doesn't say that tasks become Notion pages, and it doesn't say you can edit from the block. It is on the Beginner, Pro and Business plans. Todoist says it isn't fully supported on mobile and desktop, so use a browser. A browser that blocks third-party cookies stops the login from working, and the article asks you to allow them. It costs nothing beyond your Todoist plan.

Route 2: 2sync, a two-way sync

The same Todoist article points to 2sync for the real thing. 2sync copies tasks between a Notion database and your Todoist projects, and you choose one way or both. Any Notion property can be mapped to a Todoist field, you can set fixed values for entries created from Todoist, and filters limit which entries sync.

It has no free plan, only a 14-day trial with every feature. After that: Solo costs $7 a month billed yearly, or $9 monthly. It has one automation, syncs every 5 minutes, has a sync window of up to 6 months and up to 3,000 items. Premium is $14 yearly or $24 monthly, with three automations, a sync every 3 minutes, a window of one year and unlimited items. Pro is $49 yearly or $69 monthly, with ten automations, every 2 minutes and a window of two years. Its pages don't say how it handles subtasks or repeating tasks.

Route 3: Pleexy

Pleexy collects tasks from other tools into one task manager. Notion is a supported source, and Todoist is one of three places it can send them, next to Microsoft To Do and Google Tasks. Its pricing page lists two-way sync, automatic sync and automatic conflict resolution on the Individual plan, and calls sync real-time on most apps.

Individual costs $4 a month, or $40 a year. There is a 14-day trial with no card needed. The pages say connections are unlimited and name no task cap. They don't say which fields carry over between Notion and Todoist, and the home page doesn't state whether changes flow back to the source app, so check the trial with a few real tasks first.

Route 4: Zapier or Make, one rule at a time

Automation tools run a rule: when this happens in one app, do that in the other. They copy, they don't sync, and each direction is its own rule. Zapier's Notion and Todoist page lists the pieces: Todoist triggers such as New Project and New Completed Task, Notion actions such as Create Page, and from Notion a new item in a database that can create a Todoist task. It lists no ready-made template for the pair.

Make's page does list three: a Notion database page for a new Todoist task with a chosen label, a Notion database item for every new Todoist event, and a Todoist task for each new Notion database item. On price, Zapier's free plan gives 100 tasks a month, checks every 15 minutes and allows only two-step Zaps. Pro starts at $19.99 a month billed yearly for 750 tasks. Make says its free plan has 1,000 credits a month and doesn't state its interval or paid prices on that page. Zapier's page adds that two Todoist actions, the comment ones, need Todoist Premium.

If you only need a new thought in both

Sometimes you don't need the two to match. You need a new thought to land in both. Driftto doesn't sync, and I'd rather say that plainly. It never reads, edits or completes what is already in Todoist or Notion. It writes new items only.

With Send to several at once, you pick a Todoist project and a Notion database and send once. In Todoist the whole note becomes the task name, in the project you picked, with an optional due date. Nothing goes in the description. In Notion the whole note becomes the page title in the database you picked, with preset properties and an optional date. A photo goes in as an image in the page. Each one gets its own arrival status. A check-off or an edit later stays in the app where you make it.

That fits people who capture on an iPhone and want the task in Todoist and a record in Notion without typing it twice. If you need yesterday's edits in both, you need one of the routes above.

Which route I'd pick

If you only want to see tasks while you work in Notion, use the embed: it costs nothing extra and changes nothing. If the same tasks must live in both and match, try 2sync or Pleexy on the trial and watch what happens to a repeating task and a subtask. For a cheap, narrow job, such as a Notion page for tasks with one label, a Make or Zapier rule is enough.

And if the real problem is that new thoughts reach Notion late, or never, a sync won't fix that. Pick one app as home, and make getting things into it as short as you can.

Questions

Does Todoist integrate with Notion?

Only through an embed. Todoist's help article shows how to put your Todoist projects or one view inside a Notion page. It does not copy tasks. For that, Todoist's own article points to 2sync.

Can Todoist and Notion sync both ways?

Yes, with a paid third-party tool. 2sync lets you choose one way or both, and Pleexy lists two-way sync on its Individual plan. Both offer a 14-day trial.

How do I embed Todoist in Notion?

In a web browser, open Notion, type /embed on a new line, enter https://todoist.com/app, click Embed link and log in to Todoist. If you sign in to Todoist with Apple, Google or Facebook, add a password to your Todoist account first.

Is there a free way to connect Todoist and Notion?

The embed costs nothing beyond your Todoist plan, but it only displays. For copying tasks, Zapier's free plan allows 100 tasks a month with two-step Zaps, and Make has a free plan with 1,000 credits a month. 2sync and Pleexy are paid after their trials.

Can I send one note to both Todoist and Notion?

Yes. In Driftto you pick a Todoist project and a Notion database and send once. It adds a new item to each and doesn't sync them afterwards.

Driftto is in the App Store now. The yearly plan starts with a free week.
