Synchronize 2 Home Assistant todo list
This blueprint for Home Assistant synchronizes 2 to-do lists.
Originally designed to sync Google Keep lists with the Bring shopping list, its versatility allows syncing any list.
Currently limited to syncing only active items, those marked as completed are removed from the lists

Hello @HectorziN
I have installed your blueprint but once the lists are configured I get the error The automation âSynchronize Alexa with Bringâ (automation.synchronize_bring_with_alexa) has an action that calls an unknown service: bring.force_bring_sync.
Could you please help me?
Thanks!
This blueprimt is intended to work with the custom integration HA-Bring-ToDo-List, not with the official Bring! integration introduced with HA 2024.2.
I think @HectorziN coincidentally published his blueprint just three days before the official integration went live. 
Maybe heâs reading these replies and adapts his blueprint to the official integration in the near future. 
As the author of HA-Bring-ToDo-List, the call to force_bring_sync may not be needed, as it syncs every 30 seconds anyway.
That may assist the original blueprint creator.
Ok, the problem is, @HectorziN published a blueprint with hard coded todo list entities instead of retrieving them from the blueprint inputs:
- variables:
google_list: todo.google_keep_la_compra
bring_list: todo.bring_todo_la_compra
temp_list: todo.temp
This obviously wonât work for anybody, but him. 
TBH, I never published a blueprint and wonât start with this at 3am in the morning (*). Thus, please fix this blueprint manually, if you want to use it. You just have to replace the variables section with this:
- variables:
google_list: !input google_list
bring_list: !input bring_list
temp_list: !input temp_list
And as @sh00t2kill already mentioned, you have to remove the first service call right below the variables section, as the bring.force_bring_sync service doesnât exist in the official Bring! integration.
One more thing: While I assume, the sync should work fine with any combination of two todo lists, the blueprint assumes the Google Keep list as the âfirst listâ and the Bring! list as the âsecond listâ. Thus, if you want to sync between Google Keep and Bring!, you should choose the Google Keep list first, when configuring the blueprint, just for clarity.
(*) Yes, I should go to bed now. But with this integration running, FINALLY (!) we can yell at Google again for adding items to the shopping list. Especially my wife will be excited, because she really missed these epic discussions with our smart speaker.

Finally it works again! 
I have implemented the Blueprint as you described. Thank you 
After a month of testing, I realized that it doesnât work so well after all. Some products that I have checked off keep reappearing on the list. I still have to delete them from the sync list.
Same thing here. The problem seems to be Google Now or Bring changing the capitalization of words unasked. Thus, the blueprint isnât able able to match the items anymore between the two lists and fails with an error.
Hello,
this is what i´m looking for many month. because i didn´t find a way to sync Bring with my Google Home.
but it didn´t really works.

This works so well! Thank you so much!
I donât have enough coding knowledge to make this, but was wondering how possible it would be to also sync the due dates of items instead of just the names. Is this a trivial thing or would it require a rewrite?
Thanks again for this blueprint, itâs amazing!
Iâve had the same issue with similar error logs. I think this issue might be caused by checked off items only appearing in one list.
When I set up the synchronisation I made use of existing lists and both the Bring list and the Keep list already had checked of items on them.
After this issue kept appearing I took a look at the script and it seems to be comparing deleted items, so I cleared the checked off items on all three lists and since then I havenât had this issue again (fingers crossed)
