Timed Sub-Task → Update
AI-generatedSummary
Updates an existing Tyme timed sub-task by ID, sending only the fields you add under Update Fields via a POST to Tyme's update_entity endpoint, and returns the API's response.
Inputs
- Timed Sub-Task ID (required) — ID of the timed sub-task to update. Sent as
idin the request body. - Update Fields — Collection of optional fields to change. Only the fields you add are sent. Available fields: Name, Timed Task ID (
related_id, the parent task), Start Date, Due Date, Completed Date, Hourly Rate, Planned Duration (Seconds).
Output shape
One JSON item per input item, containing the response returned by Tyme's /data/update_entity endpoint (the updated entity).
The exact response fields are not defined in the node code; they come straight from the API. Date fields (start, due, completed) are converted to
YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ssin UTC before sending. With Continue On Fail enabled, a failed item returns{ error: message }instead of stopping the workflow.
Examples
Example 1: Mark a sub-task as completed
Set Timed Sub-Task ID to the sub-task's ID, then add Update Fields > Completed Date with the completion timestamp (for example {{$now}}).
Example 2: Rename a sub-task and change its planned effort
Set the Timed Sub-Task ID, then add Update Fields > Name and Planned Duration (Seconds) = 7200.
Example 3: Move a sub-task to a different parent task
Set the Timed Sub-Task ID, then add Update Fields > Timed Task ID with the new parent task's ID.
