Slack + Todoist: Configurable

I was trying to think of a work around to my post regarding @mention notifications here and landed trying to use the Slack pipe to ping our users for various Tadabase events.

Would it be possible to make the Slack pipe configurable to support their basic mrkdwn formatting like basic markdown, links, line-breaks, and @mentions? (I don’t think it’s necessary to try and implement Block Kit)

Likewise with Todoist, it would be great if we could just add the ability to pass the Tadabase Record ID in a POST request so when a task is marked done in Todoist it can be synced back to TB. Can we either make it configurable or add the following paramaters?

Additional Params for Task Create/Update

  1. description
  2. parent_id
  3. label_ids
  4. due_datetime
  5. due_string
  6. assignee
  7. order

Additional Params for Project Create/Update

  1. parent_id
  2. color
  3. order

Additional Params for Section Create/Update

  1. order

Additional Params for Comment Create/Update

  1. project_id
  2. attachment

Hi @james,

I’m happy to let you know that a new API call, called “Post Message (Advanced)” has been added to the Slack pipe. This call allows you to send messages which include basic markdown formatting, links, line-breaks, and @mentions. The Todoist pipe is now partially configurable - the parameters, request, and response can be edited.

Regards,
Sara
