Keep ClickUp tasks in sync with Slack updates
Put important progress from the conversation where the work is tracked.
Trigger
Channel Message Received
Triggered when a message is posted in a Slack channel (public, private, or multi-party IM). Does NOT match direct messages.
Action
Create task comment
Adds a comment to a clickup task; `team id` is required if `custom task ids` is true.
Why this helps
Progress shared in Slack can be hard to find later when the task record has not been updated.
- Keep relevant progress beside the task.
- Make handoffs easier with recent context in one place.
- Reduce manual copy-and-paste after status conversations.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and ClickUp to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation prompt asking Notis to add meaningful updates to the matching ClickUp task as comments.
- 3Choose Slack Channel Message Received and a channel for run reports.
- 4Test with a real update to an existing task and verify the comment lands on the right work.
Questions about this workflow
Will every channel message be added as a comment?
Tell Notis to act only on messages that clearly update an existing ClickUp task.
What if the matching task is unclear?
Instruct Notis to skip ambiguous updates rather than comment on a task that may be unrelated.

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Add dependency
Adds a 'waiting on' or 'blocking' dependency to a task, requiring either `depends on` (task becomes waiting on) or `dependency of` (task becomes blocking), but not both; `team id` is required if `custom task ids` is true.

Adds a guest to a folder with specified permissions; requires a clickup enterprise plan.
