monday ACTION

Update Item Name

Rename an existing item. Use for the item's name only — Update Column Values cannot change it, and this action changes nothing else. Set Board ID, Item ID and the new Item Name. Example: Item ID 9876543210, Item Name Website redesign v2. Returns the item's ID as a string. Use Get Board Items Page or Get Items By Column Value to find an Item ID. See the documentation
