You have 3 ways to get an access token.

Recommended for development:

Quick start:

  • login into Todoist web.
  • Go to Todoist settings under config menu (top right gear icon).
  • Select Integrations tab.
  • Copy the API token value and use it with todoist-js new instance.

Development set-up:

  • Go to Todoist App Management.
  • Create a new app following the required steps.
  • Copy Your access token value under Test Token section and use it with todoist-js new instance.

Recommended for real life use:

Set up an app from Todoist App Management. You should implement a oAuth2 process with your Todoist application, using Todoist for authentication and letting the user to grant permissions. As result you'll get an access token.
