It is quite easy to write a script to email yourself your upcoming actions (This is described on the integrations page on tracks and also on various posts in the forums).  The gotcha to watch is that the days ticklers will not move from being deferred whilst you are not logged onto tracks web pages.  This means that the upcoming actions will not contain today’s actions (If you haven’t logged on today).  As my script runs before I wake it means non of the ticklers due to appear today are visible on my daily email.

There is a simple solution though, just run this before you create the email.  This will cause tracks to check if any deferred actions should be now made visible.

curl -u tuser:tpass -X POST  http://localhost:8000/todos/check_deferred.js 

You will need to change tuser and tpass to be your tracks username and password

All the best,

Martin

nice! could you create an enhancement ticket for this? I think we need to check on deferred actions when you access tracks from outside a webbrowser.
