Improve the Clickup for Outlook to manage the meetings from the calendar and add them as tasks
My team and I are working on the Workload management and planification, and we chose Clickup to save us time. The thing is that we already organize our meetings in Outlook and we don't have the time to add the tasks on the Clickup App. I tried to use the Clickup for Outlook tool, but it doesn't have an interfase for the meetings in the calendar. I tried syncing the calendar in Clickup to the one in Outlook, but the meetings only appear in the Planner view, without translating into tasks. I tried creating the task with Clickup for Outlook from the email for the meeting, and it doesn't take the duration of the meeting, nor does it take the date, nor does it save us any time. We need a way to bring the meetings from the Outlook Calendar (or the Planner synced from the calendar) to a list in Clickup that contains the meetings. And those meetings need to be assigned to the person that was invited, they need to have the duration of the meeting as the duration of the task, the date of the meeting as the deadline. If the meeting is recurrent, it needs to create the repetitions or set the task as recurrent. We are a team of 10. If each of us takes 30min weekly loading the meetings in the Clickup tracker, we are talking of wasting 5 hours weekly, that's 20 hours a month, 240 hours a year, or 30 days of work of a person. We are people working in technical tasks, we could be fixing issues and solving problems in that time. 30 days of work is more than a month in one of our teammates time, that's a full project done.

Allow automations to read Relationships and map them to Custom Fields or other Relationships
Hello ClickUp Support, I am currently building a structured operations system in ClickUp that manages customers, orders, and external services. The goal is to use ClickUp as a lightweight ERP-style workflow for an agency environment. However, I have encountered a limitation in Automations that prevents implementing a fully relational workflow. My scenario: 1. I create an order task (e.g. “Test Order”). 2. The order is linked to a customer using a Relationship field. Example: Order → Relationship → Customer: “Test Customer” 3. From the order, I create another task via a Relationship called External Service (e.g. subcontractor work). ClickUp automatically links the new task back to the order, which works perfectly. Desired behaviour: When the new “External Service” task is created, I would like ClickUp to automatically inherit the Customer relationship from the parent order. Example result: External Service Task → Relationship: Order = Test Order → Relationship: Customer = Test Customer (automatically inherited) Currently this is not possible because: • Automations cannot read Relationship values from another task • Relationship fields cannot populate Custom Fields automatically • Custom Fields cannot dynamically create Relationships Why this matters: If ClickUp allowed automations to read Relationship values and reuse them, it would enable fully relational workflows similar to ERP systems. Example ERP-style structure: Customer → Order → External Services → Invoices → Communication With relational inheritance, ClickUp could automatically propagate key relationships (such as the customer) across all dependent tasks. This would enable: • automated data inheritance • consistent relational structures • ERP-style task hierarchies • far fewer manual steps in complex workflows Feature request: Allow Automations to: 1. Read a Relationship value from another task (e.g. Parent Task) 2. Write that value into: • another Relationship field • a Custom Field 3. Reference Relationship fields in Automation conditions This single capability would dramatically improve relational workflows and make ClickUp viable for more advanced operational systems. Thank you for considering this request. Best regards
