Ability to add Whiteboards to the Sidebar (Spaces & Folders)
complete
Brendon McCarthy
Whiteboards should be able to exist anywhere, just as with Docs v3.
- In a sidebar
- In a folder
- In a task (as an attachment, like a doc)
- In a doc/sub-doc
- In a view (the worst place but might as well keep it)
Also, embedded as a comment/link in a task description, comment or a doc.

Hey everyone! 👋
I'm excited to share with you phase 1 of this feature request. Now, you will have the ability to create and add whiteboards to your sidebar and place them inside of Spaces or Folders (just like docs)! You will also be able to move any existing Whiteboards and move them to the sidebar as well.
Next, we intend to allow you to add whiteboards to tasks, docs, slash commands etc. I'm going to mark this post as complete and break out the remaining asks into the following posts. Please upvote the one(s) that are most important to you!
- In a task (as an attachment, like a doc) - https://clickup.canny.io/feature-requests/p/addcreate-whiteboards-on-tasks-as-attachments
- In a doc/sub-doc - https://clickup.canny.io/feature-requests/p/addcreate-whiteboards-on-docs
- Also, embedded as a comment/link in a task description, comment or a doc. - https://clickup.canny.io/feature-requests/p/ability-to-embed-whiteboards-anywhere-that-text-can-be-task-descriptions-comment
Oh, and one last thing...we're releasing something that should help you find all these Whiteboards in your Whiteboards soon enough. Stay tuned and thank you for your patience!

Noticed you can now add Whiteboards to Folders, which is great!
A couple of suggestions:-
1. It would be great if, like Lists and Docs, we could add Whiteboards to Spaces but not have them be under folders.
2. When you create a Whiteboard under a folder, it creates a List View with it. It's not the end of the world, but it would be great if this didn't happen.
I do like, though, that the current set-up allows for multiple tabs (i.e., multiple Whiteboard Views), because you can have multiple drafts of a Whiteboard all in the same area, and not have to create multiple different Whiteboards that are all separate. (I like that it works like creating a List where you can have different Views, basically, it's just that they should all be Whiteboard views only.)
(See attached image.)
This will also become even more useful when Subfolders are released, as you could have a sub-folder for a project, and then just one Whiteboard View with multiple tabs for drafts or areas of that project.
3. It would be great if we could attach Whiteboards to tasks.
And, on that note, I would love to be able to have tabs for multiple drafts if a Whiteboard is attached to a task, like we are getting with adding a Whiteboard to a folder.

Guy Mannerings:
1 & 2. We're going to add true whiteboards to the sidebar (right now it's a list with a whiteboard view)
- Down the road, yes but not immediately most likely (just a larger challenge)

I'd love to be able to have a whiteboard associated with a specific task I'm working on. This got my vote.
Zach - ClickUp
Melinda Schallau: To clarify, you want to be able to have a whiteboard LIVE on a task, right?
Melinda Schallau
Zach - ClickUp: Yes, correct. That way, the source of the creative process on whiteboard can be found under that task easily.

Any news on this? Really want to be able to attach Whiteboards to a task and have a "Whiteboards Home". Basically, same way Docs are handled.
Zach - ClickUp
Guy Mannerings: Whiteboards attached to tasks is going to be part of the next phase. Detaching it from views was phase 1 (so now you can actually have a whiteboard fully live in a sidebar and not be associated with a list)
