What You’ll Need Before You Start

Here’s what you’ll need to get going:

• A ClickUp account (of course!)
• A Telegram account
• Access to the ClickIntegrator tool
• A Telegram group or channel you want to use for updates with your team
• 5–10 minutes for set up

---

Step 1: Opening the Connection Page

Open the ClickIntegrator dashboard for ClickUp and look for the Telegram integration section. If you don’t see an existing Telegram account connected, you’re in the right place! The big blue “Connect” button is your friend here.

Click the “Connect” button to begin the linking process.

---

Step 2: Pop the Connection Modal and Prep Telegram

After you hit “Connect,” a dialog box will pop up, showing that there are currently no Telegram accounts connected.

1. Click the plus or “Add” button to start a new connection.
2. The system will show instructions—look for “Open your Telegram app.”

Time to pick up your phone or bring up Telegram on desktop.

---

Step 3: Invite the ClickIntegrator Bot to Your Group or Channel

You’ll see a prompt to invite the “ClickIntegrator Telegram” bot to your desired Telegram group or channel. This is the official bridge between your ClickUp workspace and Telegram.

Step-by-step:

1. Copy the bot’s username. There’s usually a big blue “Copy Username” button.
2. Go to your chosen Telegram group or channel.
3. Tap “Add Members”.
4. Paste in the bot’s username, and select it.
5. Click “Done” to add the bot to your group or channel.

Invite the ClickIntegrator Telegram bot by pasting the username in your group’s member list.

Now, check the group members list—if you see yourself and the bot, you’re golden!

---

Step 4: Finalize the Connection With a Unique Link Code

Each ClickUp account you connect gets its own unique verification code. You’ll need to post this in your group or channel to prove you’re authorized.

Here’s how:

1. Click “Copy Message” (or similar wording) next to the unique link message.
2. Head back to your Telegram group/channel and paste the message in the chat.
3. Send the message!

You should see a success message in the group confirming the connection.

Paste the unique verification message in Telegram to confirm your link.

---

Step 5: Review and Adjust Notification Preferences

Once you hit “Done,” you should see confirmation that your ClickUp workspace is now connected to your Telegram group. You’ll see the name of the group or channel, and the confirmation code you used.

But wait, there’s more—you can customize notifications!

Options include whether to get alerts for:

• Task created
• Task updated
• Task deleted
• Priority updated
• Status changes
• ...and more!

It’s like building your own notification system.

Set exactly what notifications you want to receive in Telegram.

Step 6: Test the Integration

Time for the fun part—let’s see it in action.

1. Open ClickUp (log in again if you need to).
2. Make a change—for example, update a task title or create a new task.

Update a task in ClickUp to test the integration.

Hop over to your Telegram group, and watch for a notification. Within moments, you should see an update saying the task was updated—complete with details like:

• What was changed (title, status, etc.)
• Date and time
• Workspace details
• Direct link to the task

You can even click the link in Telegram and go straight to the task in ClickUp!

Telegram delivers ClickUp updates instantly, with direct links to the relevant tasks.

---

Step 7: Create New Tasks Directly from Telegram

This is where things get super interactive! The ClickIntegrator bot lets you create new tasks from Telegram itself. It’s a major time saver, especially for quick team discussions that lead to actionable items.

How to do it:

1. In your Telegram group, type a command using the format:

   /click action add_task [Task Name]
   

   Or use the bot’s built-in “slash commands” menu if available (/click to see options).

2. The bot will ask which list you want to add the task to. Reply with the name of the list (for example: “list one”).

3. The bot adds your task and lets you know in the group.

Add new tasks to ClickUp by sending commands to the ClickIntegrator bot in your Telegram group.

Supported Bot Commands

Besides adding tasks, the bot supports several actions right in Telegram, like:

• Checking available commands:

  /click action
  

See all available commands with a single slash command.

---

Real-World Example: From Task Update to Team Notification

Let’s say you’ve just renamed a ClickUp task from “Plan Update” to “Submission Updated.” Instantly, your Telegram group gets a message: task name changed, by whom, when, and a link. Your team is never in the dark!

You can also create a new task, and Telegram will show two notifications—one for task creation, another if the status was set to “To Do.” Every change, big or small, is just a second away from your team’s chat.

---

Managing Multiple Connections

If you want to connect more than one ClickUp account, just repeat the process for each one. Each group/channel can link with a unique ClickUp workspace, and each has a separate verification code.

Pro Tips:

• For different teams or projects, create separate Telegram groups and link them individually.
• You can invite the bot to both public and private groups or channels (as long as you’re an admin).
• Always keep your verification code confidential—don’t share it outside the group.

Right now, ClickIntegrator’s Telegram integration already supports:

• Notifications from spaces, folders, lists, tags, and goals
• Creating new tasks from Telegram
• Creating tags directly from Telegram
• Choosing what types of alerts you want to receive

Planned features will make it even more powerful—think assigning tasks, changing priorities, and commenting directly from Telegram!

Keep your eyes on updates—the integration will keep getting better.
