Zapier now lets you add tasks and tags to the Toggl time entries you create from other apps, and use templates when automatically creating your projects.

In case you haven’t heard of Zapier yet, it’s a tool that lets you build integrations between your favourite web apps using a dead-simple UI.

How to connect Toggl with my other apps?

To start using the integrations, simply log into a Zapier account and connect whichever tools you need with their API – which can be done with the push of a button.

Now Zapier’s added a couple more options to their Toggl integration, which I think you’ll find pretty neat.

Create Toggl projects from templates

Project templates let you build commonly used project set ups in seconds.

All in all, Zapier has hundreds of apps in their inventory, so chances are you’ll find your favourites there (no matter how obscure they may be).
