Adding new task description when duplicating tasks

English Forum Developers & API

I am making an API call to duplicate a task. However, in this newly duplicated task, I want to add a new task description. I tried adding notes data object in my payload for the API call but it does not work. Is it even possible? can someone please help me if there is another way to do it? Thank you

Hi @Pardeep_Singh,

Not possible to do as part of the duplication call.

To do it, you’ll need to get the gid of the new task after the duplication finishes, then use the “update task” endpoint to put in the new description.

Hi @Phil_Seeman

Thank you for looking into it. I thought it was not possible but wanted to confirm if I was missing anything. Also, thank you for recommending a solution, appreciate the help. :innocent:
