It would be great to have the option to create apps and authenticate with client Credential Oauth Flow. That would be much more secure and robust way to connect to our landscapes

+1. Without client credentials OAuth support, ClickUp integrations in enterprise environments require creating and maintaining “bot users” and performing manual browser-based authentication to obtain refresh tokens. This adds friction, increases security risk, and complicates automation. A proper application-level M2M authentication flow would solve these issues and enable safe, scalable CI/CD integrations.
Other platforms such as Jira, GitHub, and Microsoft Entra ID all support client credentials. ClickUp should too.
