Turn comment references into scannable links

Make a useful link in a task discussion easy to carry into a meeting or review.

Trigger

Task Comment Posted

Triggers when a comment is added to a task. `changes[]` carries one `CommentChange` entry whose `comment` field is the typed `ClickupComment` object (id, text, user, reactions, etc.).

Action

Generate Barcode or QR Code

Tool to generate barcodes or qr codes using zebra crossing (zxing). use when you need a barcode or qr code image from text values.

Why this helps

Links shared in task discussions can be difficult to locate again when someone needs them away from the ClickUp thread.

  • Make a comment's supplied reference URL scannable.
  • Prepare links for printouts and in-person reviews.
  • Keep a useful discussion reference easy to retrieve.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect ClickUp and Api2pdf once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation in plain language or in Automations, New Automation.
  • 3Ask Notis to generate a QR code only when a new task comment contains a reference URL you want to share.
  • 4Pick the ClickUp Task Comment Posted trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real comment containing the intended URL.

Questions about this workflow

Does ClickUp provide a URL in every comment?

No. The workflow depends on a reference URL being present in the comment text or otherwise supplied to Notis.

Will edited comments trigger this workflow?

This workflow uses the Task Comment Posted event. Comment edits are a separate ClickUp event and will not start it.
