FAQs about our OneNote to Microsoft Outlook Integration

Here are some answers to common questions about how TaskClone works with OneNote and Microsoft Outlook.

How does TaskClone sync tasks from OneNote to Microsoft Outlook?

TaskClone automatically extracts individual tasks from your OneNote notes and syncs them to Microsoft Outlook, ensuring no action items are missed. Unlike manual copy-pasting or generic automation tools, TaskClone reads your notes’ structure and intelligently transfers only actionable tasks.

What makes TaskClone different from Zapier, Make and IFTTT?

Unlike Zapier, IFTTT, and Make, TaskClone:
• Extracts individual tasks from inside notes (not just moving whole notes)
• Syncs completion status (for supported apps)
• Can add due dates, labels, and priorities dynamically

This makes TaskClone the best option for syncing tasks from notes to task managers with minimal effort.

Can TaskClone sync task completion status between OneNote and Microsoft Outlook?

For supported apps (like Microsoft Outlook), TaskClone offers two-way sync, meaning when you check off a task in Microsoft Outlook, it’s marked complete in OneNote as well. For other apps, TaskClone still extracts tasks, but changes won’t sync back. See Supported Apps

Does TaskClone support setting due dates, priorities, labels or assignees for the task?

Yes! Depending on the Microsoft Outlook support, TaskClone can automatically transfer task details, including:
• Due dates
• Labels/tags
• Priorities
• Collaborator/Assignee
See Supported Apps for features supported.

Can I choose which tasks to sync from OneNote to Microsoft Outlook?

Yes! TaskClone provides precise control including:
• Which notes to process
• Extracting all tasks, even newly added tasks
• Skipping tasks you don't want transferred
• Transferring each task to the specific destination you designate

Do I need to install anything in OneNote or Microsoft Outlook?

No installations needed! TaskClone works via secure cloud-based integration. Once you connect your accounts, TaskClone receives notifications to automatically extract tasks without needing browser extensions, plugins, or manual intervention.

How long does it take for a task to sync?

In most cases, syncing is almost instant—tasks usually appear in Microsoft Outlook within seconds to a few minutes. TaskClone continuously receives change notifications, ensuring your task manager stays updated. For Notion, we don't receive change notifications so the process may take 5-10 minutes from those apps.
