Get a visual preview when a ClickUp task is completed
Make the finished document easier to recognize without opening every file.
Trigger
Task Status Updated
Triggers when a task's status changes. `changes[]` carries `StatusChange` entries only — ClickUp pre-filters server-side by event type. Lower traffic than subscribing to `CLICKUP_TASK_UPDATED` and pattern-matching `StatusChange`.
Action
LibreOffice Thumbnail
Tool to generate a thumbnail image of a document using libreoffice. use when you need a quick visual preview of a pdf or office file's first page.
Why this helps
A completed task may point to a file that still needs a quick visual check, and opening files one by one slows down review.
- See a document's first page at a glance.
- Reduce repeated file opening during review.
- Keep document checks close to the task completion moment.

- 5Test with one real completed task that includes a document link.
Questions about this workflow
Does this workflow create a document if the task has none?
No. The task needs to provide a usable PDF or office document link for Api2pdf to create a thumbnail.
Does the trigger only fire for completed tasks?
The ClickUp trigger fires when a task status changes. In the instruction, tell Notis to proceed only when the new status indicates completion.
