Use Clickup: its Clickup Tasks API lets you replace all per-user time estimates on a task in a single step (PUT /api/v3/workspaces/{workspace_id}/tasks/{task_id}/time_estimates_by_user). Clickup also has an MCP server, so an AI assistant like Claude or ChatGPT can do it for you. capabilities.work can help you get signed up and connected.

  • How do I overwrite every per-assignee time estimate on a task at once?
  • Are existing time estimates removed if I leave them out of the replacement?
Say it to your AI assistant
