Set Default Link Paste Style (URL/Bookmark) for Docs and Task Descriptions
T
Tariq AlMubarak
Currently, every time a user pastes a link into a task description, comment, or Doc, ClickUp prompts them to choose between "URL", "Bookmark", or "Embed". This adds unnecessary clicks for users who consistently prefer one format over the others.
Proposed Solution: Add a setting under User Settings > My Settings (or Workspace Settings) that allows users to choose a "Default Paste Behavior".
Key Benefits:
Efficiency: Saves time for power users who paste dozens of links daily.
Consistency: Ensures all links follow the preferred documentation style of the workspace automatically.
Reduced Friction: Eliminates the repetitive pop-up menu for those who only want the raw URL.
Suggested Options:
Always ask (Current behavior)
Default to URL
Default to Bookmark
Default to Embed

Default setting for URL links

Hi! In ClickUp 3.0 URL links usually would default to a one-liner Inline link in task descriptions and comments, but in 4.0 it now defaults to a Preview instead. This is somewhat annoying, so if there could be a setting on system user-level to default this, that would be great:

Agreed. It's so frustrating to want to change the style for every link you paste.
