What can you do with Amazing Marvin on Tray.ai?

Amazing Marvin is a personal productivity app for planning tasks and projects, tracking time, setting reminders and building habits, with many optional working styles. Tray.ai connects to Amazing Marvin through the HTTP Connector, so your workflows can call the Amazing Marvin API alongside the rest of your stack.

  • When Amazing Marvin sends “Task marked done”, close the matching item in your project tracker.
  • Create a task in Amazing Marvin when a ticket is assigned to you in your help desk.
  • When Amazing Marvin sends “Time tracking stopped”, log the hours to your timesheet system.

Connect Amazing Marvin to Tray.ai

Each step uses Amazing Marvin's own API details, from its documentation.

Step 1

Save Amazing Marvin's API key

Save the key as a Tray.ai authentication. The HTTP Client puts it in the request header, read from $.auth. The key stays out of the workflow and out of the logs.

Step 2

Point the HTTP Client at the API

Add an HTTP Client step and use https://serv.amazingmarvin.com/api as the base URL. Or paste a cURL example from Amazing Marvin's API docs, and Tray.ai fills in the method, URL, and headers.

Step 3

Start with “List today's items”

It's one of 18 documented actions, under Tasks. The response comes back as data the next step can map into your other apps.

Step 4

Start workflows from Amazing Marvin events

Give Amazing Marvin the URL of a Tray.ai webhook trigger. “Task added” can then start a workflow, and so can 8 other events.
