Any way to select predefined filters that already exist?

Open stacksjb opened this issue 2 years ago • 4 comments

Hello,

I found this and immediately fell in love - I would love to use it.

However, I spent hours trying to figure out how to use it... until I figured out you have to scroll down and add the filters.

Is there no way to select existing filters? I have to recreate them all manually?

If I could just select filters from my existing filter list, this would be much easier to use for my workflow, as I have 12 filters I work through throughout the day (switching among them)

Hi! Thanks for providing the feedback. This is a popular feature request and I'm looking into how to support it!

FYI, there isn't a way to call Todoist's API and return tasks matching a known filter. This would require two calls - one to get the stored/predefined filters, then another to query for tasks matching the filter that you got from that call.

Yeah, you're right. I'm thinking to get the user's filters when they first open the website, and then present a dropdown with stored filters.
