Set the ClickUp trigger as “Task status changed”

Add the ClickUp trigger to initiate your playbook's actions when task status changes.

To do this, click "Add trigger" in your playbook. Select the "Task status changed" trigger option from the dropdown menu under ClickUp. It will enable your playbook to automatically identify newly changed task status and trigger necessary actions.

If you still need to connect your ClickUp account to Relay.app, a prompt will guide you through the connection process.
