This page describes how to work with todos in Zulu, and shows examples of how they will appear in Apple Reminders

Contents

Prerequisites

  • Zulu must be installed: Zulu - Installation
  • Your calendars must be published: How To Publish Calendars
  • A Todo Layout must be specified in at least one of your calendar records.
  • Recent versions of Apple Calendar and Apple Reminders require an SSL certificate installed on the Zulu server. You may need to install a valid certificate on your server in order for Apple Calendars to work with Zulu: Troubleshooting Adding Calendars

Todo Components

The Simplest Todo

The only thing a todo needs to be created, is the summary field filled out:

Once this todo is marked complete, you will see the zulu_STATUS and zulu_COMPLETED fields populated automatically:

Using The Note and zulu_DUE Fields

The Note field allows for a bit more description about this todo, and this description will show in the Apple Reminder interface. The zulu_DUE allows you to specify a date when the todo is expected to be complete.

Using The Priority Field

The zulu_PRIORITY allows you to specify the urgency of this todo. Apple reminders uses numbers to correspond to the level of urgency:

  • 1 - High
  • 5 - Medium
  • 9 - Low
  • (empty field) - No Priority

Using The Activity Field

The zulu_ACTIVITY is used to give the todo an actionable icon that can be clicked to perform some activity. This is best described through examples.


You can initiate a phone call from a todo by storing the value: "tel:7702349293" in the zulu_ACTIVITY field:

You can open a web page by storing the value "https://google.com"
