updateTaskLabel

mutation · in the family Task label

What it does

Edit a label for organizing tasks — change its details.

Edit a TaskLabel's mutable attributes. Requires the unrestricted capability + the record's CURRENT revision.

Careful

Edits take effect immediately and write a new revision; the old revision stays in history.

Who may call it

Arguments

Name	Type	Required	Notes
`id`	ID `ID!`	yes	The id of the record.
`revision`	ID `ID!`	yes	The revision id you read on the record; the change is refused if an edit landed in the meantime.
`input`	EditTaskLabelInput `EditTaskLabelInput!`	yes	No further notes.

Returns

TaskLabel TaskLabel! — A TaskLabel — the WORK vocabulary: a group-defined label attached to Tasks by reference (labelIds). DELIBERATELY its OWN master, NOT a reuse of the catalog Tag — catalog vocabulary (what we sell) and work vocabulary (how we operate) must not blend, and dooming a work label must never referential-gate against catalog nodes. The Tag SHAPE otherwise (caption + optional #rrggbb color; free-string labels stay unrepresentable — typo-proof, rename-safe via caption). FSM: active(i) ⇄ inactive → doomed (the template — ≠ the Tag's two-state: work vocabulary retires seasonally and comes back, so inactive earns its keep; 'blocked' lives HERE as a label because it has no machine consequence — the disclosed states-vs-labels lean). NOT searchable (supporting vocabulary — the Decoration SB-d class; reached via the tasks list filter, never name-found). The ops event domain (at.ops.task_label.*).

Dry run

Add dryRun: true to the request envelope (extensions.at) to rehearse this call: every check runs, the write is rehearsed against the current records and nothing is stored; the answer is the refusal a real call would give, or the record it would create. Every response to a rehearsal carries dryRun: true, so a rehearsed record is never mistaken for a saved one.
