ClickUp and GitHub integration

Save yourself the work of writing custom integrations for ClickUp and GitHub and use n8n instead. Build adaptable and scalable Productivity, Communication, and Development workflows that work with your technology stack. All within a building experience you will love.

How to connect ClickUp and GitHub

  • Step 1: Create a new workflow
  • Step 2: Add and configure nodes
  • Step 3: Connect
  • Step 4: Customize and extend your integration
  • Step 5: Test and activate your workflow

Step 1: Create a new workflow and add the first step

In n8n, click the "Add workflow" button in the Workflows tab to create a new workflow. Add the starting point – a trigger on when your workflow should run: an app event, a schedule, a webhook call, another workflow, an AI chat, or a manual trigger. Sometimes, the HTTP Request node might already serve as your starting point.

Step 2: Add and configure ClickUp and GitHub nodes

You can find ClickUp and GitHub in the nodes panel. Drag them onto your workflow canvas, selecting their actions. Click each node, choose a credential, and authenticate to grant n8n access. Configure ClickUp and GitHub nodes one by one: input data on the left, parameters in the middle, and output data on the right.

Step 3: Connect ClickUp and GitHub

A connection establishes a link between ClickUp and GitHub (or vice versa) to route data through the workflow. Data flows from the output of one node to the input of another. You can have single or multiple connections for each node.

Step 4: Customize and extend your ClickUp and GitHub integration

Use n8n's core nodes such as If, Split Out, Merge, and others to transform and manipulate data. Write custom JavaScript or Python in the Code node and run it as a step in your workflow. Connect ClickUp and GitHub with any of n8n’s 1000+ integrations, and incorporate advanced AI logic into your workflows.

Step 5: Test and activate your ClickUp and GitHub workflow

Save and run the workflow to see if everything works as expected. Based on your configuration, data should flow from ClickUp to GitHub or vice versa. Easily debug your workflow: you can check past executions to isolate and fix the mistake. Once you've tested everything, make sure to save your workflow and activate it.

Triage GitHub issues with GPT-4.1-mini, Slack, Gmail, ClickUp and Sheets

How it works
This workflow automatically handles new GitHub issues by reading and understanding them using AI, then taking multiple actions simultaneously — creating tasks, sending notifications, and keeping everything organized — without any manual effort.

Step-by-step
Trigger & filter**
GitHub Trigger – Listens for issue events on a GitHub repository.
If – Filters to only process issues with the action opened.

AI analysis**
Message a model – Sends the issue title, body, and metadata to GPT-4.1-mini with a structured prompt to extract category, subcategory, severity, priority, estimated effort, assigned team, summary, and suggested action.
Parse AI Response – Converts the raw AI text output into a clean structured JSON object and appends a formatted date.

Parallel output actions**
Append row in sheet – Logs all issue data and AI analysis into a Google Sheets tracker.
Create a task – Creates a prioritized ClickUp task with full issue and AI analysis details.
Send a message – Posts a formatted Slack alert to #github-alerts with issue details and AI analysis.
Send a message1 – Sends an HTML-formatted email via Gmail with the full issue report and AI insights.
Create a comment on an issue – Posts the AI analysis summary as a comment directly on the GitHub issue.
HTTP Request – Applies AI-generated labels (category + severity) to the GitHub issue via the GitHub API.

Why use this?
Eliminates manual issue triage by using AI to instantly classify and prioritize every new issue
Keeps the entire team informed across Slack, Email, and GitHub simultaneously
Auto-creates ClickUp tasks so nothing falls through the cracks
Logs every issue to Google Sheets for reporting and trend analysis
Responds directly on GitHub so issue reporters get instant acknowledgment
