Sprint planning emails generate task lists
"When a sprint planning email arrives, extract each action item and automatically create ClickUp tasks in the active sprint with the assignee and due date from the email."
ClickUp and Slack bridged in real time
"When a ClickUp task status changes to In Review, post an update to the relevant project Slack channel with the task name, assignee, and a direct link to the task."
Slack messages captured as tasks
"When a Slack message in a project channel is tagged with :task:, create a ClickUp task in the current workspace with the message text and assign it to the person who posted."
Client requests triaged on arrival
"When a client emails a request, create a ClickUp task in the client project list with High priority, set a due date of three business days, and notify the account manager in Slack."
