TickTick

Overview

TickTick is one of two task managers Universal Inbox synchronizes with (the other is Todoist). Like Todoist, it serves as a central repository for tasks and as the synchronization hub for status updates flowing back to source tools.

Integration Role

TickTick in Universal Inbox serves several key functions:

  1. Task Repository: Acts as the central storage for tasks created from notifications
  2. Synchronization Hub: Status updates flow between Universal Inbox, TickTick, and the source tool of each notification
  3. Task Creation Target: When you create a task from a notification, you can pick TickTick as the destination (if Todoist is also connected, a task-manager picker appears)

Available Actions

Task Management

Complete Task

  • Keyboard shortcut: c
  • Effect in Universal Inbox: Marks the synchronized task or task associated to a notification as complete and removes the notification from your inbox
  • Effect in TickTick: Completes the task in TickTick
  • Effect in Source Tool: Updates the status in the original platform (e.g., completes a Linear issue, removes a Slack reaction)

This is the primary action for tasks, which synchronizes completion status across all platforms.
