update_list

Modify properties of an existing ClickUp list, such as name, content, or status, using the list ID or name. Ideal for reorganizing or renaming workspace elements without redundant lookups.

Instructions

Modify an existing ClickUp list's properties, such as name, content, or status options. Before calling, check if you already have the necessary list ID from previous responses in the conversation history, as this avoids redundant lookups. Use when reorganizing or renaming workspace elements.

Input Schema

Name	Required	Description
`content`	No	New description or content for the list
`listId`	No	ID of the list to update (optional if using listName instead). If you have this ID from a previous response, use it directly rather than looking up by name.
`listName`	No	Name of the list to update - will automatically find the list by name (optional if using listId instead). Only use this if you don't already have the list ID from previous responses.
`name`	No	New name for the list
`status`	No	New status for the list
