Update Task task.item.update

If you are developing integrations for Bitrix24 using AI tools (Codex, Claude Code, Cursor), connect to the MCP server so that the assistant can utilize the official REST documentation.

Scope: task

Who can execute the method: any user

This method updates the data for a task. The following fields are available for updating. When updating task data, business logic and permissions are taken into account. For example, a Participant cannot rename a task — in such a case, an error will be generated.

It is recommended to check whether the action is allowed before updating the data (task.item.isactionallowed).

DEPRECATED

The development of this method has been discontinued. Use tasks.task.update.

Method Parameters

Name	Description
TASKID	Task identifier.
TASKDATA	List of fields with new values.

It is mandatory to follow the order of parameters in the request. If this order is violated, the request will be executed with errors.
