I can set the due date on create by including the (due: today) style syntax in the task content.   But there doesn't appear to be a way to update the due date on an existing task through the API. Appending the (due: today) syntax to the content of the update just adds the text to the task title.

Hi Steve,

To modify task's due date, you should add parameter task[due_date]
to the PUT call which updates
task parameters (just like task[content] or task[position]).

The response from the server should contain "due" field with the
updated due value.

Hope this helps :)

Is it possible to update the the tasks priority text colour through the API in the same way?

I've tried adding the parameter task[mark] with "fg1" in the PUT, but that doesn't work

I figured it out, it's details[mark]
