Integrating ClickUp with Ziflow lets users create and update tasks in ClickUp for new proofs, comments, decisions, and more to keep the team up to date with the tools they're already using.

To install Ziflow in ClickUp to see and review proofs from ClickUp tasks, see Add Ziflow to ClickUp.

Available on: Pro Enterprise

Before setting up the integration between Ziflow and any third-party tool, you need to connect Ziflow with the application. 

  1. Log into Ziflow. From the main navigation pane, select the Connect tab.

Connect Ziflow proofs with ClickUp tasks

Once you've connected ClickUp to Ziflow, you can start linking proofs with ClickUp tasks from the Integrations tab while creating proofs or editing proof details.
