List your todos

GEThttps://<your-url>/api/v2/todos

MCP id todos.indexAlso on this path: POST Create a todo

Returns your todos (the unchecked task-list lines in drive documents that mention you), newest first.

Token scope: api:read:project_management
Without it: 403 insufficient-token-scope.
Permission: project_management::view_backlog
Without it: 403 insufficient-permission.
Rate cost: 1 unit, read bucket. view=detail makes it 3. Adds: with_total=1 +2, each include +1, q +2.
Also: If-None-Match answers 304 when nothing changed. Never cached: private, no-store. Unknown query parameters are refused, never ignored.

Both are checked, scope first. A token never does more than its user. How access is checked

This is the list behind the Todos dashboard in plnnrly. The collection is hard-scoped to the authenticated caller with no escape: there is no permission that widens it, filter[user_id] accepts me and nothing else, and no include reaches another user's rows. ⚠ Rows are auto-derived from document content: every write to a drive item deletes the whole todo set for that item and rebuilds it from the document HTML, so ids are not stable across an edit of a source document. ?q= substring-matches todo_content, and filter[drive_item_id] narrows to particular documents. total is omitted unless you pass with_total=1.

Query parameters

Unknown parameters are refused with 400, naming the parameter.

17 parameters in 6 groups

Views

viewstring

Which field set to render.

summarydefaultdetail

Pagination

Cursor pagination only. Follow links.next.

per_pageinteger1 to 100

Rows per page. At most 25 when include names a to-many relation; a larger value is 400 invalid-query-parameter.

Default: 25

cursorstring

Opaque keyset cursor from a previous page's links.next. Never construct one by hand.

with_totalboolean

Whether meta.page.total is counted for this request.

Default: false

Filters

=: equals
[in]: any of a comma-separated list
[gte][lt]: at least, less than

filter[created_at]timestamp (YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ssZ)=[gte][lt]

Creation timestamp. Pair with sort=id for a stable full export.

filter[drive_item_id]integer=[in]

Limit to todos parsed out of these drive items.

A comma-separated list of at most 100 values.

filter[updated_at]timestamp (YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ssZ)=[gte][lt]

Last-write timestamp. Use for incremental sync.

filter[user_id]integer=[in]

Whose todos to return. Accepts the literal me, and me is the only value any caller may name: this collection has no permission that grants access to another user's todos.

A comma-separated list of at most 100 values.

Search

qstring

Free-text search over todo_content. At most one substring match per request: q together with a contains filter is 400 invalid-query-parameter.

Sorting

sortstring

Up to three keys, comma-separated, each optionally prefixed with - for descending.

Default: created_at

Key	Sorts by
`created_at`	Newest todo first.
`id`	Id, ascending. An id never changes, so use this for a stable full export.
`updated_at`	Last-write timestamp; pair with the id tiebreaker for sync.

Prefix a key with - for descending.

Includes

includestring

Comma-separated names to inline, at most five.

Path	Adds	Cost
`user`	The user the todo belongs to, always the authenticated caller.	+1

Request headers

dataarray of UserTodoList

The rows, each a UserTodoList.

meta.pagePageOptionalTotal

per_page, next_cursor, prev_cursor, total.
