Before you begin
These are source-based guides; they do not claim hands-on product test results. Choose a checklist for your current task and check its documentation sources before changing your workspace.
Choose your next task
- Duplicate a Todoist project without carrying the wrong client context
Use a duplicated project as a starting template, then reset context and check what the copy leaves behind.
- Todoist CSV export: check active work and historical evidence separately
Build an export acceptance checklist that distinguishes a reusable active project from proof of completed work.
- Todoist CSV import: reconcile a pilot before moving a project
Move a spreadsheet into Todoist with a small import pilot, a field mapping worksheet and a repeat-import decision.
- Todoist backup recovery: rehearse a project restore and record omissions
Prepare a recovery drill that selects the right Todoist backup, restores separately and reconciles active work.
- Todoist calendar sync: map which edits create or change tasks
Validate Todoist calendar integration with a direction matrix, recurrence exceptions and a controlled test task.
- Todoist dates versus deadlines: separate work scheduling from a cutoff
Plan a deliverable with a work date, a fixed deadline and an explicit rule for rescheduling unfinished work.
- Todoist filters: verify a query with known matching and excluded tasks
Diagnose a Todoist filter using deliberate sample tasks, query grouping and checks for renamed projects.
- Todoist labels: create a small vocabulary for work across projects
Design labels around cross-project actions, with a batching example and a cleanup rule for ambiguous tags.
- Todoist recurring tasks: choose a calendar or completion-based schedule
Define recurring work by its intended cadence, then inspect the next date after early, late and rescheduled completion.
- Todoist reminders: choose a notification rule and check the next occurrence
Separate a task schedule from its reminder, then verify recipient, timing and recurrence using a harmless trial.
- Todoist sections: define entry and exit rules for a project board
Organize a Todoist project into useful workflow sections with a small board design and explicit handoff criteria.
- Todoist subtasks: break a deliverable into independently owned steps
Choose parent and subtask boundaries with a deliverable example, ownership checks and a completion review.

Using these checklists
Start with a small sample before changing a production workspace. Check the linked official documentation for current account requirements. Record your expected result, run the example with your own assumptions, and verify the outcome before expanding the workflow.
