Retrieve Backendless context after a ClickUp task update
Give every meaningful task update the context it needs.
Trigger
Task Updated
Triggers when a task is updated. Fires for every kind of update on the task, including comments. If you only care about a specific property changing, prefer the dedicated trigger (`CLICKUP_TASK_STATUS_UPDATED`, etc.) — those are pre-filtered by ClickUp and produce less traffic. `changes[]` can carry any FieldChange variant (`StatusChange`, `PriorityChange`, `AssigneeAddChange`, `AssigneeRemoveChange`, `TagAddChange`, `TagRemoveChange`, `DueDateChange`, `TimeEstimateChange`, `TimeSpentChange`, `NameChange`, `ContentChange`, `CommentChange`, `CustomFieldChange`).
Action
General Object Retrieval
Tool to retrieve objects from a specified backendless table with filtering, sorting, and pagination. use after confirming the table name and query options. example: "get users where age > 30 sorted by created desc".
