Todoist project export to dashboard

Upload the file you already download from Todoist. Every Number reads it with no setup, picks a screen, and puts a receipt on every number.

The question behind this file

What is due this week per responsible person, and which tasks keep slipping past their deadline?

What you get

What's late

Items past their due date, latest first.

DEADLINE marks when each task is due, so it leads with what's late.

You can switch it to By person, Breakdown, This period vs last, Key numbers under “How it's read”.

Click any number for its receipt: the rule, the rows it used, and the rows it left out.

Getting the file

  1. Download it from Todoist

    In Todoist on the web, open the project, click the three-dot menu at the top right, choose Manage data, then Export as CSV. Completed tasks aren't included.

  2. Know what a row is

    One row is one task, section, note or meta line (TYPE decides).

  3. Upload it as it is

    No cleanup first. Title rows, totals rows and repeated headers are skipped and listed in each receipt.

How we know

This file is one of the 100 in our reading test. The column names are Todoist's; the rows were generated to fit them, since we don't have your file. Your export may have more or fewer columns, and Every Number shows how it read each one before you build.
