Frequently Asked Questions about GitLab + Microsoft To Do integrations

New to automation with Zapier? You're not alone. Here are some answers to common questions about how Zapier works with GitLab and Microsoft To Do

How can I set up a trigger to create a task in Microsoft To Do when an issue is created in GitLab?

To set up this integration, you'll need to use a trigger for 'New Issue' in GitLab. Once this trigger is activated, you can use the action to 'Create Task' in Microsoft To Do. This way, every time an issue is created in GitLab, a corresponding task will automatically appear in your Microsoft To Do list.

Can I sync comments from GitLab issues to tasks in Microsoft To Do?

Yes, you can sync comments by setting a trigger for 'New Comment' or 'Updated Comment' in GitLab issues. Then, you can use the action to 'Update Task' notes or details in Microsoft To Do. This ensures that any discussions around the issue are reflected within your tasks.

Is it possible to update task status in Microsoft To Do based on changes made in GitLab?

Certainly! You can set a trigger such as 'Issue Status Changed' in GitLab and then map it to your desired task status update action like marking as completed or changing priority levels within Microsoft To Do.

How do I ensure that when a task is marked complete in Microsoft To Do, the corresponding issue is updated in GitLab?

This requires setting up triggers for task completion events within Microsoft To Do. Once triggered, you can set actions like adding labels, changing status, or even commenting on issues back on GitLab platform for better traceability.

What happens if I delete an issue from GitLab? Can it remove tasks from Microsoft To Do automatically?

We recommend caution when enabling automatic deletions. While it's feasible by triggering actions based on 'Issue Deleted' events from GitLab to subsequently perform 'Delete Task' actions on Microsoft To Do, consider data recovery and unintended deletions before implementing such workflows.

Can deadlines be synced between GitLab issues and Microsoft To Do tasks?

Yes, deadlines can be kept consistent by using triggers like 'Issue Due Date Set/Updated' from GitLab and applying these updates through actions such as setting due dates within your tasks on Microsoft To Do ensuring all platforms reflect accurate timelines.

Can I assign tasks automatically in Microsoft To Do based on assignees of GitLab issues?

Assignment syncing is achievable by utilizing triggers for changes made to assignees within your issues on GitLab which then prompt assignment actions directly syncing those responsible over into specific users/tasks lists over on Microsoft Todo ensuring team alignment.
