POST /api/v1/tasks` with `projectId` does not update section `items` array

[dojoca]

Description

When creating a task via the API with a valid projectId, the task is stored correctly and appears in "All Tasks" and other global views. However, the task does not appear in the project view because the corresponding section's items array is never updated.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create a project via the UI (e.g. "My Project") and note its ID
2. POST a task to /api/v1/tasks with the project's ID:

{
  "id": "some-uuid",
  "title": "Test task",
  "completed": false,
  "priority": 4,
  "projectId": "your-project-id",
  "labels": [],
  "subtasks": [],
  "comments": [],
  "createdAt": "2026-03-05T00:00:00.000Z",
  "recurringMode": "dueDate"
}

3. Navigate to the project in the UI
4. Task does not appear under the project's Default section

Expected Behaviour

Task should appear in the project view under the default section, consistent with tasks created via the UI.

Actual Behaviour

Task appears in "All Tasks" with projectId correctly set, but sections[].items in data.json remains empty:

"sections": [
  {
    "id": "00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000",
    "name": "Default",
    "items": [],
    "isDefault": true
  }
]

Tasks created via the UI correctly populate items with the task ID. The API does not.

Workaround

Manually update data.json to append the task ID into the relevant section's items array, then restart the container.

Environment

• TaskTrove version: v0.12.0
• Deployment: Docker (self-hosted)
• API version: v1

Hi, thanks for reporting. Can you update to latest version and see if this issue still persist?

I think I have a similar issue, opened another issue thread.
Waiting to see if I get an update to a later version through Unraid Community Apps, will then update.
