Restrict Task Types by List and Location
Currently, when we create a task type, it becomes available across the entire workspace. This creates issues for standardization, as we want to enforce the use of specific task types within certain lists and even based on location. We’d like the ability to restrict task types to a list or location, so team members only see the relevant options. For example, in some cases, we only want three task types available within a given list. This functionality will help us: *Enforce consistency in how tasks are categorized. *Limit confusion by only presenting relevant task types. *Better leverage the beta functionality of fields tied to task types. IMPACT: Without this, team members can select incorrect task types, leading to data inconsistency and reduced effectiveness of field-based reporting and automation. REQUEST: *Ability to configure which task types are available per list, space, and/or entire workspace. Include the ability to manage ClickUp-created task types, such as Task, Milestone, Meeting Note, Key Result, Person, etc.) --By Location (Department/Team/Region): For example, the Sales – Europe list may only need three task types (“Lead,” “Demo Scheduled,” and “Contract Sent”), while Sales – US might require a different set. Restricting by location would keep task types relevant for each group. --Space: If an organization manages multiple workspaces (e.g., Operations vs. IT), admins could enforce different task type sets per workspace. This would prevent irrelevant task types from appearing in the wrong context (e.g., IT-specific types showing up in Sales). --Workspace: We may want to make certain task lists available across the workspace still. *Add to the space configuration/creation to set the task types available for each, in case there are no task types available at the workspace level.

Guest Client role: a native client field — filterable and groupable like Assignee — with automatic scoped access
Many teams — agencies, system integrators, consultancies — work on behalf of external clients. Today, there is no native concept of "client" in ClickUp. Giving a client visibility into their own tasks requires manually creating dedicated lists or spaces, configuring permissions per project, and maintaining that setup over time. Grouping or filtering work by client across the workspace is simply not possible natively. The proposal Introduce a new user type alongside the existing Guest: the Guest Client. The workflow would be simple: Invite an external user by company email and define them as Guest Client Associate that Guest Client to any task using a native field — similar to Assignee — selectable, filterable, and groupable across all views and dashboards When the Guest Client logs in, they automatically see only the tasks where they are associated — no manual filtering, no dedicated spaces, no permission configuration required Why this matters This is not a CRM request. It is a minimal extension of what already exists — the Guest user type — with a semantic distinction and a native field behavior. The infrastructure is already there; what is missing is a role that maps to a real-world actor (the external client) and that ClickUp can use as a first-class axis for filtering, grouping, and access scoping. Without this, teams working for multiple clients are forced into workarounds: dropdown fields with hard 500-option limits, duplicated list structures, or manual permission management that breaks at scale. None of these solutions allow answering the simple question: "Show me everything we are doing for Client X." Expected outcome A Guest Client user type that: (1) can be assigned to tasks as a native field, filterable and groupable exactly like Assignee across views, dashboards, and reports; and (2) whose login experience is automatically scoped to their relevant work — turning ClickUp into a native client collaboration layer without adding complexity for the internal team.
