Integrations

TaskNotes integrates with external services and Obsidian's core plugins.

Bases Core Plugin

TaskNotes v4 uses Obsidian's Bases core plugin for its main views (Task List, Kanban, Calendar, Agenda). Bases must be enabled in Settings -> Core Plugins.

For details on Bases integration, see Core Concepts.

External Calendars

TaskNotes supports bidirectional sync with Google Calendar and Microsoft Outlook via OAuth, plus read-only access to any calendar via ICS subscriptions.

For setup instructions, see Calendar Integration.

HTTP API

A REST API enables external applications to create, update, and query tasks. Use it for automation, browser extensions, or custom integrations.

For API documentation, see HTTP API.

Webhooks

Webhooks send task event payloads to external services when subscribed events occur. Optional payload transformations support service-specific formats.

For configuration, see Webhooks.

Companion Plugins

Companion plugins run inside Obsidian alongside TaskNotes and use the JavaScript runtime API for live task operations. They are useful when an integration needs a real Obsidian UI, command-palette commands, or vault-local configuration files.

For the companion-plugin model and guides for Canvas Bases and TaskNotes Workflows, see Companion Plugins.
