Whiteboards are built for collaboration. Whiteboards make it easy for distributed teams to brainstorm ideas. Everyone can see each other's edits and cursor movements in real time. You can create and edit tasks and Docs from a Whiteboard to turn ideas into actionable projects.
Take a look at our course on Boosting Productivity With Whiteboards in ClickUp University.
Try Whiteboarding with a stylus or on a tablet!

Create a Whiteboard
You can create a Whiteboard in the Sidebar, as a view, from the toolbar's Create items button or Quick Action menu, and Whiteboards Hub.
Add items to Whiteboards
Items are the building blocks of a Whiteboard. You can add items, like shapes and connectors, using the Whiteboard toolbar.
Use Whiteboards Hub
Use Whiteboards Hub to organize, search, and create Whiteboards from one centralized location.
Add tasks and Docs to a Whiteboard
Add tasks and Docs to your Whiteboard and edit them without leaving the canvas. Tasks and Docs have the same functionality as the other Whiteboard items, you can duplicate, connect, and draw on them!
Directly connect your ideas to your work by converting shapes, sticky notes, or text into a task.
Search for a Whiteboard
Quickly find the Whiteboards you've created or have access to using the Command Center or Whiteboards Hub.
Share and set Whiteboard permissions
Do you work with clients outside of your Workspace? You can share a Whiteboard with anyone. They don't even have to have a ClickUp account!
You can also share and set permissions for Whiteboards with the people and Teams in your Workspace.
Create and use Whiteboard templates
Templates help you jump-start your everyday Whiteboard activities so you can spend more time brainstorming. Template a Whiteboard that your team uses regularly. Or choose from the ready-to-use options on our Template page.
