Workspace Connect... Kinda like Slack Connect
under review
Ian Dickson
Would be amazing to have the ability to connect workspaces so that the work we do with other organizations can live in a list that is in both environments. Right now if we're doing work with another business that uses ClickUp only one of us can have the Home/Inbox feature fully leveraged as the work lives in one workspace and not both simultaneously. Slack has figured this out and done a great job with Slack Connect where each business can have it's own instance of Slack while also efficiently connecting them in a way that doesn't limit or degrade any user experience. The real goal here is to actually have everyone who works have ONE inbox, and that's only possible if workspaces can be connected.

We're exploring the idea of shared Chat channels across ClickUp workspaces, and we want your input. Please take this 5-minute survey to share your thoughts!

I just took the survey and I'm not entirely convinced the concept is fully understood here. It also needs to go beyond just Clickup chat connecting. We have clients using their own clickup workspace, but need to be able to assign tasks to our team. So we would essentially need Clickup Connect to be able to share entire spaces, or folders and lists so that our users or clients do not have to switch workspaces.

Invite external users to a chat similar to external connections on slack

I would like to invite external clients to chat where they can only see that chat they're in and discuss

ClickUp Connect for Companies similar to Slack Connect
Anthony Bures
I work with 3 other companies... we all use ClckUp.. the problem is we miss notifications etc when we have tasks in another companies click up and have to log out of one company and into the other... can't we have tabs? or Shared tasks among companies.. I like how Slack now has slack connect so I can message across organizations without having to switch organizations.. this would be ideal because right now it's a pain deciding which of the companies will post which projects in whose clickup account and we generally fight over that because we don't want to have to switch to the other companies' clickup accounts. This would be very powerful!

Hey everyone! The Product Manager for Integrations & Desktop, Tadej is looking to build this feature and would love to speak with any users that have asked for this or shared that this is a blocker to moving fully to ClickUp Chat.
What is ClickUp Connect for Slack Hub?
- 2-way sync between ClickUp & Slack
- Supports the ability to keep Slack connect channels and continue communicating with external partners (outside contractors and vendors)
- Allows teams to migrate to ClickUp Chat on their terms, meaning some teams can be fully in ClickUp Chat and some may still be in Slack (and that is ok as all messages would sync across the two!)
If interested, please @ mention me with your preferred time zone or reply to the email I just sent to coordinate a quick 15-minute call with the Product Manager. Thanks!

Tamlyn Koga sorry but what you've outlined is not what my request actually was. Sounds like you're trying to do some type of ClickUp Chat x Slack Connect sync/integration but my feature request actually has nothing to do with maintaining Slack and was simply me comparing what I want ClickUp to offer to what Slack has in their Slack Connect function.
Slack Connect allows two different companies to chat without switching workspaces.
My request of a "ClickUp Connect" is actually a request for ClickUp to allow separate workspaces to share lists (and chats).
The major use case is collaboration across businesses. Often times we'll hire a third party and they want us to work in their project management or vice versa. What would be ideal is if we could share one list to multiple workspaces.
And the main reason is to maintain a consolidated inbox and one point of notifications for all work.
I agree that what you've outlined in your response is useful, but I just wanted to be clear it is fundamentally different than the original feature request -- and I think the original feature request would actually gain ClickUp more users.

Agree with Ian here. It's not about connecting Clickup to Slack, its about creating a similar feature to Slack Connect that would allow the sharing of assets between Clickup workspaces.
With Slack Connect we can create a chat channel in our slack account, but have it appear in our clients slack account so they dont have to switch between workspaces to communicate with our team. They simply navigate to our channel that sits inside their slack.
I know the chat feature in Clickup is fairly new, but this is something I hear from many Slack users as a major reason they won't switch fully out of slack.
For clients who are married to Slack though, it would be interesting to allow a 2 way sync for communication between a clickup channel and a slack channel...

Joel Keddie, Ian Dickson thank you for your feedback. We are exploring ClickUp Connect as well, so would love to learn more about your use cases.

Tadej Jevševar I'd be happy to hop on a call and chat. Tamlyn Koga I'm in EST and between 3-4:30pm Tuesday-Thursday is best for me.
Joel Keddie
Tadej Jevševar happy to jump on a call. How can we set that up?
Tadej Jevševar
Joel Keddie: You can book a call here. Looking forward to it.

This would be a dream come true!
I had no idea that Slack already has a feature to connect two different companies in Slack.
I’ve been dreaming of this feature for years!

We also have shared clients. therefore our clients are also having to login to 3 different click up accounts. We are separate companies therefore we cannot have 1 click up instance or click up account because a lot of our clients do not overlap but a large portion of our clients do overlap.
