Most powerful ways to connect Captions and Microsoft To Do
Captions + Slack + Microsoft To Do: When a video's captions are generated in Captions, a message is sent to a designated Slack channel with the captions. A task is then created in Microsoft To Do to review those captions.
Microsoft To Do + Captions + Google Sheets: When a task is completed in Microsoft To Do, this automation uses Captions to get a summary of the video transcript (assuming the To Do task relates to a video). This summary, along with the task completion status, is then added as a new row in a Google Sheet.
