Nestr can connect with the tools you already use. This guide provides an overview of integration options, from no-code platforms to custom API development.

Supported integrations

Built-in integrations

These integrations are configured directly in Workspace settings → Integrations:

Nestr integrates with many of your existing systems.
Nestr integrates with many of your existing systems.

Personal task sync

These are set up by each person, in their own profile under Your app integrations, rather than in workspace settings. They are per user: an admin connecting their own account does not connect anybody else's.

  • Microsoft To Do and Todoist sync your tasks both ways.
  • Slack, Microsoft Teams and GitHub appear on the same screen, but carry comments, messages and pull requests rather than a task list.

For the task providers, Nestr creates one list in the outside tool per role you fill, named for the workspace and the role, plus a Nestr: Inbox list. Your Nestr work appears in those lists, and anything you add to them comes back into Nestr: the inbox list arrives in your Nestr inbox, and a role's list arrives under that role.

Only those lists are read back. Tasks sitting in your own lists stay where they are, because Nestr has no way to know which role they belong to. On a work Microsoft account, the tasks assigned to you arrive in To Do under "Assigned to me", which is a view onto Planner rather than a list, so those cannot be synced. To bring one into Nestr, put it in the list for the role it belongs to.

"Active" with a recent sync time means the connection is polling normally. It does not mean the item you are looking for is in scope.

No-code integrations (Zapier / Make)

Use Nestr's API with Zapier or Make (formerly Integromat) to create automated workflows:

  • When a new project is created in Nestr, post to Slack
  • When a user is added to your CRM, invite them to Nestr
  • Sync task completion between Nestr and other project tools

To set up, you'll need your API key (see Using the Nestr API) and the Nestr API endpoints from our API documentation.

Common integration questions

Does Nestr integrate with Google Calendar?

Nestr does not currently have a direct Google Calendar integration. Meetings in Nestr are managed within the platform. You can manually create calendar events and link to your Nestr meeting.

Can I connect Microsoft To Do, Teams or Planner?

Microsoft To Do syncs natively, per person, from Your app integrations in your profile. See Personal task sync above. You do not need Zapier for it.

Microsoft Teams also connects there, for comments and messages rather than tasks.

Planner has no integration. Tasks assigned to you in Planner appear in Microsoft To Do under "Assigned to me", but that is a view rather than a list, so Nestr cannot read it. Use Make or Zapier if you need Planner data in Nestr.

Can I import from Asana / Trello / other project tools?

For tools without a built-in integration, contact us and we'll help import your data, or use the API to build a custom sync.

Building custom integrations

Nestr's REST API gives you full programmatic access to your workspace. See Using the Nestr API for authentication details and the API documentation for available endpoints.
