PUT data in task custom fields via API / Update Task Custom Field via API
Conrad A. Villa
We use numerous custom fields but cannot set their values via API. Can't set custom value when creating a task to updating a task via API

Esto está desde el 2020!!!! Desde ese tiempo no es soportada una funcionalidad que obviamente es necesaria... poder actualizar via API los custom fields tal cómo se actualiza cualquier otro campo desde la API de tareas... sería genial que esto lo puedan meter al backlog en algún momento.

This is from 2020!!!! Since that time, a functionality that is obviously necessary is not supported... being able to update the custom fields via API just as any other field is updated from the tasks API... it would be great if this could be added to the backlog at some point

Gustavo Gutierrez But its already possible no?

+1 This is natively supported in Make.com (good), but not via direct API, which makes no sense. There should be a PUT/UPDATE task that allows updates to all fields, including custom fields, with just one API call. The same goes for updating (adding/removing) tags. Since a task has tags (and not the other way round), why can't we add/remove multiple tags simultaneously with one API call (ideally within the PUT/UPDATE)?

Definitely a pain point! Addressing this sooner rather than later will reduce the chatter between platforms. Making 12 separate calls right now, which isn't optimal.

Hi any news on this?

We need the ability to update multiple custom fields in one call for dynamic list and task ID input.

Update custom_fields in a bunch
Claudio Johansen
When creating a task, multiple custom_fields can be passed in the payload (perfect!). When updating a task, there is no way to update them all at once. It's anoying and slow to update each single custom_field as described here: https://clickup.com/api/clickupreference/operation/SetCustomFieldValue/

I have 25 custom fields in one task... So i have to do 25 calls to the API with the present method !
I can create a task an these 25 custom fields with ONE call (3 seconds), but to updating, i must do 26 calls (2.5 sec for the tak + 25x0.5sec for the custom field) ! I cry... 😭
It will be better to update the task and the custom filed like the create post method !

API: PUT Update Task - Custom Fields Do Not Update

When using Update Task URL with or without custom id, the task is updating all core fields , Description, Task Name, etc... but not custom fields. Below is an image of the JSON payload. Maybe I am using the wrong format for custom fields? I use this format for creating new task and it works fine just not with the PUT Update Task URL.
I have also tried each type of custom field I am using which does not work either. Please let me know if this is a bug or if there is something I am missing. I appreciate the help. Thank you.

Hey, there!
Thank you for reaching out with this issue! 🌻
I'm able to confirm that currently, you're only able to update on Custom Field at a time through the API.
A Feature Request currently exists for this so I am going to go ahead and merge this post into that Request! The more attention a request gets, the sooner it'll likely be implemented. ✨
Have a wonderful rest of your day!
