FAQ

Questions about Create Insightly Task.

What does the Create Insightly Task action do in Insightly?

Creates a project-management task linked to contacts, organisations, or opportunities. Useful for "deal closed → auto-create kick-off task for delivery team" workflows.

What inputs does Create Insightly Task require?

Required: Title. Every input accepts a static value or a variable from any upstream node in your workflow.

Can I use dynamic inputs from earlier workflow nodes?

Yes. Any field on this action can pull values from upstream nodes, whether that's a form response, a trigger payload, an AI output, or a lookup result.

What happens if Insightly returns an error?

The run history shows the failed step with its input and the error message Insightly returned, so you can fix the input and run the workflow again. Automatic retries are built into HTTP steps only, where you can also set your own retry count and delay.

Does Create Insightly Task support batch operations?

Run Create Insightly Task inside a loop to process each item in an array. TinyCommand does not throttle calls for you, so for large arrays add a Delay step if you need to stay within Insightly's rate limits.
