Erica - If you are already working on an “Email to Dynalist” feature, then IFTTT and Zapier could easily be set up to use that. Sending an email based on any criteria you specify in IFTTT or Zapier is one of my main use cases for them. So, essentially, once you set up the “Email to Dynalist” feature, you have enabled IFTTT and Zapier users to do their thing.

I would very much like to be able to do the following:
- Every time I add a new todo in my “todo” list in Dynalist, have IFTTT copy that to do to 2Do, then delete that item from Dynalist.
- Every time I tag a webpage on pinboard with #dynalist, have that item added to an “inbox” list on Dynalist (formatted in Markdown)
I can think of other use cases as well, but those would probably be the two I would like to have most right now if Dynalist supported IFTTT. (I already use IFTTT for many similar tasks, such as importing from iOS Reminders to 2Do, and saving favorited Tweets to Pinboard, etc.)
I agree with Lasse_Pedersen that Zapier is more towards business systems. I am already using Zapier for my business and a Dynalist / Zapier integration would be very welcome.
If Dynalist would add a Zapier integration, then I would upgrade to Dynalist Pro. (If these integrations were in the Dynalist pro package.)
Where can I vote for a Dynalist / Zapier integration since the Dynalist roadmap Trello board is not actively used anymore?
And don’t forget this

Hi, the roadmap is still used to keep track of the vote counts. Trello is just not a good place for discussion.

I don’t think there’s a golden standard - every one needs something different - but for every service I’ve tried I’ve always come back to IFTTT.
Besides Zapier there’s Integromat (really cool, but free tier is limited) and Microsoft Flow (part of Office 365, if you can find it).

Just going by mentions online, IFTTT is twice as popular as Zapier:
Zapier’s strength is that it can work with services that do not explicitly have an IFTTT-like API.
I use IFTTT all the time and miss Dynalist as a service, being at the trigger or action level.

Was going to say the same. Many times I’ve tried to do something with IFTTT that it doesn’t support, Zapier supports a lot more, with a lot more actions.
If I’m not mistaken, both Zapier, IFTTT and Integromat support some sort of Webhooks and calling directly a REST API of any webservice. Exposing the Dynalist’s APIs would be enough.
Do people know this? How does anybody even discover the roadmap unless coming across a forum post like this
Time for a bit of dogfooding maybe

I’ve gotten IFTTT and Zapier to work. No such luck with integromat as of yet…

@Erica Could you please fix this? E.G. put it at the bottom of the help pages would be logical.
Sure, I added to our list, will fix as soon as we can.
Random thought - could a Google Assistant smart speaker use IFTTT or it’s ilk to integrate with Dynalist?
“Hey Google, add apples to my shopping dynalist”
Yes, I do that.
