Clickup – New Actions & Triggers in Workflows

Modified on Thu, 18 Sep at 7:31 AM

You can now connect ClickUp directly inside Workflows — turning CRM events into tasks, documents, and projects without manual setup or using webhooks.
What’s New
Triggers (from ClickUp → Platform):
  • New Task – Fires when a new task is created.
  • Task Changes – Fires when task details change (status, due date, priority).
  • New List – Fires when a new task list is created.
  • New Folder – Fires when a new folder is created.
  • New Comment on a Task – Fires when someone comments on a task.
  • New Attachment on Task – Fires when a file is added to a task.
  • New Reaction on Task Comment – Fires when a reaction is added to a task comment.
  • New Reaction on Chat Message – Fires when someone reacts to a public chat message.
Actions (from Platform→ ClickUp):
  • Create Task – Generate a task with assignee, due date, and priority.
  • Update Task – Change existing task details.
  • Archive / Delete Task – Clean up tasks when no longer needed.
  • Create Space / Folder / List – Build new project structures instantly.
  • Post Task Comment / Attachment – Add notes or files directly to tasks.
  • Create New Document – Save proposals, briefs, or notes in ClickUp Docs.
  • Edit / Create Document Pages – Update or add pages to existing docs.
  • Create / Update Custom Fields – Add or update data fields on tasks.
  • Find Tasks, Documents, Custom Fields, Users – Look up what you need for automation.
Why This Matters
Managing delivery in ClickUp and CRM in Platform often meant double work. Now, everything stays in sync: leads and sales activity in Platform can automatically spin up tasks, documents, and project structures in ClickUp.
Example Use Cases
Onboarding Forms → Tasks
  • A client fills out an onboarding form in Platform.
  • A new task is created in the “Client Setup” list in ClickUp with their details.
Deals → AI Proposals
  • Opportunity moves to “Proposal” stage in Platform.
  • GPT generates a personalized proposal.
  • A new document is saved in ClickUp under “Sales Docs.”
Contracts → Projects
  • When a deal is marked “Contract Signed,”
  • A new Space is created in ClickUp (SEO, Ads, or Landing Page).
  • Lists and tasks are added automatically, and internal notifications go to the right team.
