Hi,

After typing in the api-key and installing the requirrements, and I try to run the todoist.outlook.py I get the following error, which I supect is related to outlook 2010

[Anaconda2] c:\todoist>python todoist.outlook.py Traceback (most recent call last): File "todoist.outlook.py", line 125, in main() File "todoist.outlook.py", line 50, in main config = runpy.run_path(os.path.join(MY_LOCATION, "todoist.conf")) File "C:\Users\kimt\AppData\Local\Continuum\Anaconda2\lib\runpy.py", line 239, in run_path code = _get_code_from_file(path_name) File "C:\Users\kimt\AppData\Local\Continuum\Anaconda2\lib\runpy.py", line 220, in _get_code_from_file code = compile(f.read(), fname, 'exec') File "c:\todoist\todoist.conf", line 4 Todoist Project ID (int) ^ SyntaxError: invalid syntax

[Anaconda2] c:\todoist>

Todoist Token (str)

TODOIST_PROJECT_ID_GMAIL = 0 Todoist Project ID (int) TODOIST_PROJECT_ID_OUTLOOK = 2F170560653 Outlook Project ID (int) ----snip----

Thanks in advance. Kim

Hi Kim,

code = compile(f.read(), fname, 'exec')

This line attempts to read the configuration file that must look like a valid Python file, so if you either remove the lines that don't start with # (i.e. Todoist Token (str), Todoist Project ID (int), Outlook Project ID (int)) or if you add a # in front of those lines, this exception should no longer occur.

Let me know if it works, Nikita
