This is a huge issue and is disrupting the functionality of uploads to custom fields for those tasks. I took a video of the attachments for a particular task. The email thread we have going with our client is long and every time they reply, their signature is automatically downloaded and added to our attachments. It took me a full minute to scroll through them all - there are hundreds of them and it buries the 5-10 important files that we DO need to reference. Worse than that, we are no longer able to upload important files to this task because it says that we've reached the maximum number of attachments. And then even worse, when I try to delete them to make room for important ones, I can only delete one at a time. It's a huge problem. I'm happy to send Clickup the link to the video I created.

Either the ability to create folders in the attachments section in a task or the ability to upload a folder.

What’s the problem? When a task fails to save or is deleted immediately after creation, any file uploaded in that workflow becomes an unattached (“limbo”) asset. • We can see the file in the global Files view, but it’s locked—neither downloadable nor deletable. • These files linger for 30 days until the automated cleanup runs, which clutters storage, confuses the team (“Where does this file belong?”), and may expose sensitive data longer than necessary. Why it matters • Storage hygiene & security – Orphaned files consume space and may contain data that shouldn’t remain accessible. • User experience – Team members click on these files expecting content, only to encounter an error message. • Governance – Many organizations need to comply with internal or external data-retention policies that require the faster removal of data. Proposed solution 1. Admin action menu for orphaned files • Allow Workspace Owners/Admins to Download, Delete Permanently, or Relink to an existing task. 2. Orphaned files filter in the Files modal, making them easy to locate. 3. Automatic notifications (optional) to alert admins when orphaned files exceed a threshold (e.g., 50 MB or 10 items). 4. API/Automation hook so we can use ClickUp Automations / external tools to clean up or flag these files programmatically. Impact / ROI • Keeps Workspaces organized and storage costs down. • Reduces support tickets about “broken” attachments. • Gives security-conscious teams immediate control over stray data.

Would be nice to have file versioning on (task)attachments and option to compare the different versions. In our case: When working on tasks, we're uploading files to receive feedback from our team. After which a new file is uploaded with all changes (v2.0).

We often Upload animated GIFs as mockups for Video Ads that we develop for our Clients. If I Upload them into ClickUp they only loop once, when the Ticket is opened, but there is no way of starting the loop again. It would be cool if they would loop as soon, as one enlarges the Image.

Constantly renaming zip files is one of those repetitive tasks that could be eliminated if the file name of the created archive were simply taken from the task name, rather than "clickup-attachments" as currently implemented. Not a big deal if you're infrequently downloading files, but if you are consistently generating large numbers of files for every project (and, like we do, using subtasks to categorize them since CU does not have a structured way to organize attachments at the task level), then at the end of every project you are spending a good deal of time downloading and renaming several zip files. As an example, our current attachments structure looks like this: Parent Task (parent folder, which is used as a substitute for a general documents folder) |-- Subtask (subfolder, e.g., Client Onboarding & Advisories) |-- Attachment |-- Attachment |-- Subtask (subfolder, e.g., Contracts) |-- Attachment |-- Attachment |-- Subtask (subfolder, e.g., Inspection Reports) |-- Attachment |-- Attachment In our case, we use a total of 8 subtasks (for now) to organize and categorize the various types of documents we work with on every project. This means that for every project, we are downloading and renaming 8 different .zip files every single time. So if the download archive took the file name from the task name, instead of having 8 different files named "clickup-attachments...." "clickup-attachments...(1)" "clickup-attachments...(2)" etc., we'd get: Client Onboarding & Advisories.zip Contracts.zip Inspection Reports.zip etc. By the way, I'm going to put this on its own features request, but if we could lose the URL encoded file names, that would be great as well.

I would like to be able to view attachments in list view by default (instead of tile view).

Allow Attachments to be a Column Field in List View. This would make it easy when a lot of tasks have attachments and we don't want to go through each one. Thanks for all the hard work and awesome product!

Hi there! It'd be great if Clickup could offer a feature to link to a specific Sharepoint folder instead of one file. My team often has to refer to/find a folder while working on a project. This would be a great feature to have!

We need to be able to copy and paste photos from Google photos on a PC into a field on Form View same as can be done in the text box at the top of a task. That type of field is need as a custom field. Another place that you can paste a photo is in the comments section of a task. This same type of field should be available to add to Form View to allow a picture to be pasted on to the form.
