Configuration
3 fields, 1 required. A dotted path is a nested object and name[] an array of objects — the editor renders the same tree.
| Field | Type | Required | Default | Constraints | Example |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
task_id The task id, e.g. '9hx' — the last segment of the task's URL. | string | Yes | — | — | — |
custom_task_ids Treat task_id as the Workspace's custom task id (e.g. 'ABC-123') rather than ClickUp's own id. team_id becomes required when this is on. | boolean | No | false | — | — |
team_id The Workspace (team) id. Only needed — and then required — when custom_task_ids is on. | string | Conditional | — | only with custom_task_ids | — |
Example configuration
Every value below is the contract’s own example or default — nothing invented.
{
"custom_task_ids": false
}Output
One shape.

}See Delete Task run in a workflow.
In a technical demo we add the ClickUp connection, drop the node on the canvas and let Workflow Health pre-flight it before the first real run.
