Common questions
Can Knit build “Cross-post comments between project boards” between Things and Basecamp?
Yes — describe it in the box above and Knit's Integrations Agent researches Things and Basecamp'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.
Why integrate two separate project management tools like Things and Basecamp?
It enables seamless cross-departmental or agency-client collaboration by mirroring tasks, updates, and comments across both platforms in real time.
Will comments added in one app sync to the other?
Yes, when a team member adds a comment in Things, that note can automatically be added to the corresponding task in Basecamp.
