Common questions
Can Knit build “When new task in Ellie, sync it to Things.” between Ellie and Things?
Yes — describe it in the box above and Knit's Integrations Agent researches Ellie and Things's public API docs (or your own uploaded docs) and builds a working workflow, whether or not either app already has a pre-built connector.
How long does it take to build?
Minutes to a first working version, not weeks — you test it against real data before it goes anywhere near production.
What's the most common Productivity & Docs + Project Management automation?
Creating a linked doc or page in Ellie whenever a new task is created in Things, or creating a follow-up task in Things when a doc in Ellie is marked ready.
Can this link back and forth, not just one direction?
Yes — the Agent can keep a two-way reference between the Ellie doc and the Things task so either side links straight to the other.
