Automate Wrike project management operations through Composio's Wrike toolkit via Rube MCP.
Toolkit docs
:
composio.dev/toolkits/wrike
Prerequisites
Rube MCP must be connected (RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS available)
Active Wrike connection via
RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS
with toolkit
wrike
Always call
RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS
first to get current tool schemas
Setup
Get Rube MCP
Add
https://rube.app/mcp
as an MCP server in your client configuration. No API keys needed — just add the endpoint and it works.
Verify Rube MCP is available by confirming
RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS
responds
Call
RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS
with toolkit
wrike
If connection is not ACTIVE, follow the returned auth link to complete Wrike OAuth
Confirm connection status shows ACTIVE before running any workflows
Core Workflows
1. Create and Manage Tasks
When to use
User wants to create, assign, or update tasks in Wrike
Tool sequence
:
WRIKE_GET_FOLDERS
- Find the target folder/project [Prerequisite]
WRIKE_GET_ALL_CUSTOM_FIELDS
- Get custom field IDs if needed [Optional]
WRIKE_CREATE_TASK
- Create a new task [Required]
WRIKE_MODIFY_TASK
- Update task properties [Optional]
Key parameters
:
folderId
Parent folder ID where the task will be created
title
Task title
description
Task description (supports HTML)
responsibles
Array of user IDs to assign
status
'Active', 'Completed', 'Deferred', 'Cancelled'
importance
'High', 'Normal', 'Low'
customFields
Array of {id, value} objects
dates
Object with type, start, due, duration
Pitfalls
:
folderId is required; tasks must belong to a folder
responsibles requires Wrike user IDs, not emails or names
Custom field IDs must be obtained from GET_ALL_CUSTOM_FIELDS
priorityBefore and priorityAfter are mutually exclusive
Status field may not be available on Team plan
dates.start and dates.due use 'YYYY-MM-DD' format
2. Manage Folders and Projects
When to use
User wants to create, modify, or organize folders and projects
Tool sequence
:
WRIKE_GET_FOLDERS
- List existing folders [Required]
WRIKE_CREATE_FOLDER
- Create a new folder/project [Optional]
WRIKE_MODIFY_FOLDER
- Update folder properties [Optional]
WRIKE_LIST_SUBFOLDERS_BY_FOLDER_ID
- List subfolders [Optional]
WRIKE_DELETE_FOLDER
- Delete a folder permanently [Optional]
Key parameters
:
folderId
Parent folder ID for creation; target folder ID for modification
title
Folder name
description
Folder description
customItemTypeId
Set to create as a project instead of a folder
shareds
Array of user IDs or emails to share with
project
Filter for projects (true) or folders (false) in GET_FOLDERS
Pitfalls
:
DELETE_FOLDER is permanent and removes ALL contents (tasks, subfolders, documents)
Cannot modify rootFolderId or recycleBinId as parents
Folder creation auto-shares with the creator
customItemTypeId converts a folder into a project
GET_FOLDERS with descendants=true returns folder tree (may be large)
3. Retrieve and Track Tasks
When to use
User wants to find tasks, check status, or monitor progress
Tool sequence
:
WRIKE_FETCH_ALL_TASKS
- List tasks with optional filters [Required]
WRIKE_GET_TASK_BY_ID
- Get detailed info for a specific task [Optional]
Key parameters
:
status
Filter by task status ('Active', 'Completed', etc.)
dueDate
Filter by due date range (start/end/equal)
fields
Additional response fields to include
page_size
Results per page (1-100)
taskId
Specific task ID for detailed retrieval
resolve_user_names
Auto-resolve user IDs to names (default true)
Pitfalls
:
FETCH_ALL_TASKS paginates at max 100 items per page
dueDate filter supports 'equal', 'start', and 'end' fields
Date format: 'yyyy-MM-dd' or 'yyyy-MM-ddTHH:mm:ss'
GET_TASK_BY_ID returns read-only detailed information
customFields are returned by default for single task queries
4. Launch Task Blueprints
When to use
User wants to create tasks from predefined templates
Tool sequence
:
WRIKE_LIST_TASK_BLUEPRINTS
- List available blueprints [Prerequisite]
WRIKE_LIST_SPACE_TASK_BLUEPRINTS
- List blueprints in a specific space [Alternative]
WRIKE_LAUNCH_TASK_BLUEPRINT_ASYNC
- Launch a blueprint [Required]
Key parameters
:
task_blueprint_id
ID of the blueprint to launch
title
Title for the root task
parent_id
Parent folder/project ID (OR super_task_id)
super_task_id
Parent task ID (OR parent_id)
reschedule_date
Target date for task rescheduling
reschedule_mode
'RescheduleStartDate' or 'RescheduleFinishDate'
entry_limit
Max tasks to copy (1-250)
Pitfalls
:
Either parent_id or super_task_id is required, not both
Blueprint launch is asynchronous; tasks may take time to appear
reschedule_date requires reschedule_mode to be set
entry_limit caps at 250 tasks/folders per blueprint launch
copy_descriptions defaults to false; set true to include task descriptions
5. Manage Workspace and Members
When to use
User wants to manage spaces, members, or invitations
Tool sequence
:
WRIKE_GET_SPACE
- Get space details [Optional]
WRIKE_GET_CONTACTS
- List workspace contacts/members [Optional]
WRIKE_CREATE_INVITATION
- Invite a user to the workspace [Optional]
WRIKE_DELETE_SPACE
- Delete a space permanently [Optional]
Key parameters
:
spaceId
Space identifier
email
Email for invitation
role
User role ('Admin', 'Regular User', 'External User')
firstName
/
lastName
Invitee name
Pitfalls
:
DELETE_SPACE is irreversible and removes all space contents
userTypeId and role/external are mutually exclusive in invitations
Custom email subjects/messages require a paid Wrike plan
GET_CONTACTS returns workspace-level contacts, not task-specific assignments
Common Patterns
Folder ID Resolution
1. Call WRIKE_GET_FOLDERS (optionally with project=true for projects only)
2. Navigate folder tree to find target
3. Extract folder id (e.g., 'IEAGKVLFK4IHGQOI')
4. Use as folderId in task/folder creation
Custom Field Setup
1. Call WRIKE_GET_ALL_CUSTOM_FIELDS to get definitions
2. Find field by name, extract id and type
3. Format value according to type (text, dropdown, number, date)
4. Include as {id: 'FIELD_ID', value: 'VALUE'} in customFields array
Task Assignment
1. Call WRIKE_GET_CONTACTS to find user IDs
2. Use user IDs in responsibles array when creating tasks
3. Or use addResponsibles/removeResponsibles when modifying tasks
Pagination
FETCH_ALL_TASKS: Use page_size (max 100) and check for more results
GET_FOLDERS: Use nextPageToken when descendants=false and pageSize is set
LIST_TASK_BLUEPRINTS: Use next_page_token and page_size (default 100)
Known Pitfalls
ID Formats
:
Wrike IDs are opaque alphanumeric strings (e.g., 'IEAGTXR7I4IHGABC')
Task IDs, folder IDs, space IDs, and user IDs all use this format
Custom field IDs follow the same pattern
Never guess IDs; always resolve from list/search operations
Permissions
:
Operations depend on user role and sharing settings
Shared folders/tasks are visible only to shared users
Admin operations require appropriate role
Some features (custom statuses, billing types) are plan-dependent
Deletion Safety
:
DELETE_FOLDER removes ALL contents permanently
DELETE_SPACE removes the entire space and contents
Consider using MODIFY_FOLDER to move to recycle bin instead
Restore from recycle bin is possible via MODIFY_FOLDER with restore=true
Date Handling
:
Dates use 'yyyy-MM-dd' format
DateTime uses 'yyyy-MM-ddTHH:mm:ssZ' or with timezone offset
Task dates include type ('Planned', 'Actual'), start, due, duration
Duration is in minutes
