Step-by-Step Guide to Integrate Ollama and Todoist

Step 1: Setting Up Ollama

1. Visit Ollama’s official site to download the application.
2. Follow the installation instructions for your operating system.
3. Once installed, launch Ollama and run the desired models (like Llama 3).

Step 2: Preparing Todoist

1. Go to Todoist’s website and sign up for an account or log into your existing one.
2. Familiarize yourself with creating tasks, projects, and labels. It’s straightforward once you dive in!

Step 3: Creating Automations with Ollama

1. Utilize the Ollama JavaScript Library: Nell out instructions for Ollama to generate the necessary JavaScript commands to interact with the Todoist API. You can start with prompts like these:
   • “Create a new task in Todoist with the title ‘Finish blog post’.”
   • “Set a due date for the task ‘Grocery shopping’ on Friday.”
2. As you get familiar with using Ollama, begin experimenting with various commands and prompts, fine-tuning them to suit your needs.
3. Example Automation: Here’s a code snippet you can try:
   1 2 3 javascript flash('Task Created: Finish blog post'); writeFile('toMessage.txt','Finish blog post due next week', false);
   This code snippet interacts with your device’s display or file system, creating a task reminder in the process.
4. Voice Commands: Use voice commands to instruct Ollama. Whether you prefer using Siri, Google Assistant, or have a compatible voice AI system, you can train it to trigger specific Ollama commands.

Step 4: Connecting to Todoist API

1. Generate Todoist API Token: Grab your API key from your Todoist settings (profile > integrations).
2. Make Requests: Utilize fetch requests in your Ollama commands pointing to the Todoist API endpoints (You can find detailed information about the API in Todoist's API documentation). Here’s a simple fetch request example:
   1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 javascript fetch('https://api.todoist.com/rest/v1/tasks', { method: 'POST', headers: { 'Authorization': `Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN`, 'Content-Type': 'application/json' }, body: JSON.stringify({ content: 'Finish blog post', due_string: 'tomorrow', }) });
3. This snippet allows you to create a new task in Todoist using Ollama. Just replace
   1 YOUR_API_TOKEN
   with your actual Todoist API token!

Step 5: Test Your Integration

• Try executing your Ollama AI commands and see if they reflect in Todoist.
• Check for errors in the console and adjust your setup as necessary.
