Timed Task → Update
AI-generatedSummary
Updates an existing Tyme timed task by ID, sending only the fields you set in Update Fields and returning the API's response.
Inputs
- Timed Task ID (required) — ID of the timed task to update.
- Update Fields — Collection of optional fields to change: Billable, Completed Date, Due Date, Hourly Rate, Name, Planned Duration (Seconds), Project ID (moves the task to another project, sent as related_id), Rounding Method (Down/Nearest/Up), Rounding Minutes (minimum 1), Start Date. Date fields are converted to Tyme's 'YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss' format in UTC. Fields you leave out are not sent.
Output shape
One item per input item, containing the JSON response from Tyme's POST /data/update_entity call, which is the updated entity.
The request body is type 'TimedTask', the id, and the chosen update fields. If Update Fields is empty, only the ID is sent. With Continue On Fail enabled, a failed item returns {error: message} instead of stopping the run. Each output item is paired to its input item.
Examples
Example 1: Mark a task as completed and set its due date from an earlier node.
Timed Task ID = {{$json.taskId}}; Update Fields: Completed Date = {{$now}}, Due Date = a chosen date.
Example 2: Move a task to a different project and make it non-billable.
Timed Task ID = the task's ID; Update Fields: Project ID = new project ID, Billable = false.
