Required

Options / Notes

Lark Base

The connected Lark Base instance to operate on.

A Lark Base object from Connect Lark Base

Yes

Must be created earlier in the workflow using Connect Lark Base.

Locating mode

How to identify the target table.

By name, By ID

Yes

Choose By name if the table name is stable; choose By ID for reliability across renames.

Data table name

The name of the table to update.

Any valid table name

Yes (when locating by name)

Only used if Locating mode = By name; spelling and case must match exactly.

Data table ID

The unique ID of the table to update.

Any valid table ID

Yes (when locating by ID)

Only used if Locating mode = By ID; copy the ID from Lark Base to avoid typos.

Record ID

The unique ID of the record to update.

Any valid record ID

Yes

Ensure the record exists in the specified table.

Update content

The new values to write into the record.

Structured update content as required by your table’s fields

Advanced Settings

No advanced settings available.

Error Handling

Parameter Name

Description

Throw error & stop

When an error occurs, the action will stop execution.

Retry command

The action retries the command if an error occurs.

Ignore error & continue

The action ignores the error and continues workflow execution.

Variables Produced

This action doesn't produce any variables.

Using Variables in Conditions

You can pass dynamic values from earlier steps into this command. For example, use a variable for the table ID, record ID, or update content that you obtained or constructed earlier in the workflow. If the UI marks a field with {x}, it indicates that the field supports variables. Build your workflow so upstream actions supply these values before this command runs.

Notes

  • Connect to Lark Base first and keep the connection valid for this step.

  • Choose a single locating method: provide Data table name only when using By name, or Data table ID only when using By ID.

  • Verify the Record ID belongs to the specified table; mismatched IDs will cause update failures.

  • Ensure Update content aligns with the table’s field names and data types; invalid fields or types can cause errors.

  • Updating an empty or non-existent field may be rejected depending on the table’s schema rules.
