To set up this playbook, click "Add trigger" and then select "Task created" under Todoist. This will allow your playbook to automatically detect each newly created task in Todoisty and initiate necessary actions.

If this is your first time using a Todoist integration in Relay.app, a prompt will guide you through the connection process.
