Do you mean an amendment to the U.S. Constitution, an amendment in some other country’s constitution, or something else (e.g., an amendment to a bill or contract)? Also, how are you defining “least important” — least legally significant, least often used in courts, narrowest scope, or something else?
If you mean the U.S. Constitution and want a quick example: many people point to the 3rd Amendment (prohibiting quartering of soldiers) or the 27th Amendment (restrictions on congressional pay changes) as among the least practically significant today because they are rarely litigated and have narrow, specific effects. But which is “least important” is ultimately subjective and depends on the criterion you use. I can give a more detailed comparison if you tell me which context and what criterion you want.
