How do I delete a Todoist label?
Short answer: You can delete label in Todoist by hand from its own interface, but it won’t repeat itself. On TinyCommand, add the Todoist Delete Label action to a workflow, map its 1 input from any upstream app, and it runs automatically every time the trigger fires. No code, and a free tier to start.
Inputs
The fields this action accepts.
Every field can be mapped from an upstream trigger, AI step, table row, or hard-coded literal.
| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
Label ID label_id | string | Required | The Label ID assigned by Todoist. Find via the corresponding list/search operation in this app. Use the exact ID, not a name or label. |
Sample request
{"label_id": "{{trigger.label_id}}"}
Returns
{}
Use these fields in downstream nodes for routing, logging, or error handling.

FAQ
Questions about Delete Label.
What does the Delete Label action do in Todoist?
Permanently deletes a personal label in Todoist. The label is also removed from any tasks it was attached to.
What inputs does Delete Label require?
Required: Label ID. 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 Todoist returns an error?
The run history shows the failed step with its input and the error message Todoist 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 Delete Label support batch operations?
Run Delete Label 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 Todoist's rate limits.
