How do I edit a Todoist comment?

Short answer: You can update comment in Todoist by hand from its own interface, but it won’t repeat itself.

No code, and a free tier to start.

FAQ

Questions about Update Comment.

What does the Update Comment action do in Todoist?

Updates the content of an existing Todoist comment. Use this to keep an automation-posted status comment current rather than spamming new ones.

What inputs does Update Comment require?

Required: Comment ID, Content. 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 Update Comment support batch operations?

Run Update Comment 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.
