TickTick Trigger

AI-generated

Overview

This node triggers workflows in n8n by polling the TickTick task management service for newly created tasks. It supports filtering tasks by projects and assignees, and can authenticate using different methods including access token, email/password, or OAuth2. It is useful for automating actions based on new tasks appearing in TickTick, such as notifications, task processing, or integrations with other systems.

Use Case Examples

  1. Trigger a workflow whenever a new task is created in any project in TickTick.
  2. Trigger a workflow only for new tasks created in specific projects or assigned to specific users.
  3. Use different authentication methods to connect to TickTick depending on your account setup.

  • createdTime - The timestamp when the task was created.
  • projectId - The identifier of the project the task belongs to.

Troubleshooting

  • If no tasks are emitted, check that the selected projects and assignees filters are correct and that tasks exist matching those filters.
  • Authentication errors may occur if credentials are invalid or expired; verify and update credentials as needed.
  • The node only supports the 'taskCreated' event; using other events will cause an error.
