Tag ClickUp work when key terms appear in documents

Turn meaningful language changes into visible project signals.

Trigger

Keyword Detected in Document

Triggers when a specific keyword or phrase first appears in a Google Doc. This trigger monitors a Google Doc and fires once when the specified keyword is detected. After the keyword is found, the trigger will not fire again until reset.

Action

Add tag to task

Adds an existing tag to a specified task; team id is required if custom task ids is true.

Why this helps

A single phrase can change priority, risk, or ownership before anyone updates the task.

  • Surface important signals quickly
  • Keep task categorization current
  • Reduce manual monitoring
