Login Permissions for ClickUp Support
Login permissions are available on every plan. By default, this setting is disabled.
When someone in your Workspace connects with ClickUp support the support specialist sometimes needs account access for troubleshooting purposes. Support specialists must ask permission to access the account each time.
To streamline this process, everyone in your Workspace can enable Login permissions for their own account. This allows support to securely access the items the account holder has access to and is requesting assistance with.
On the Enterprise Plan, Workspace owners and admins can override the individual account login settings by disabling the Login permissions for the entire Workspace.
To enable Login permissions for your account:
- In the upper-right corner, click your personal avatar.
- Select Settings.
- On the My Settings page, scroll down to Login permissions for ClickUp Support and select one of the following settings:
Permission setting Description Testing permissions enabled Recording permissions enabled Disabled Prevents Support specialists from accessing your personal Workspace.
You must give access permission with each Support ticket you open.
No No Login and testing permissions granted Allows Support specialists login and testing permissions to your personal Workspace.
Specialists cannot record their testing or save info related to your issue.
Yes No Login, video, and screenshot permissions granted Allows Support specialists login and testing permissions to your personal Workspace.
Specialists can record testing results within your Workspace, including videos, screenshots, HAR files, and COSL traces.
Recordings and screenshots are for support and engineer use only.
