Description

Bug description

get_completed_tasks_by_due_date does not show recurring tasks that were completed in the datetime range. Tested with deprecated v9 sync API which does show correctly.

Expected behaviour

When calling get_completed_tasks_by_due_date in Python SDK with the proper time range, you should be able to see recurring tasks completed.

Is reproducible

Yes

To reproduce

Check off recurring task and call Python SDK get_completed_tasks_by_due_date

Version information:

  • Package version: todoist_api_python 3.1.0
  • Python version: Python 3.13.3

Additional information

Seems that Sync API v9 works as intended.

Research direction

Compare its result with the deprecated Sync API v9 behavior described in the report. Done means the method returns completed recurring tasks in the requested range.
