Assign Teams to the People Custom Field
If you have tasks with rotating/multiple assignees from different teams, it can sometimes be difficult to identify a project owner. Well, not anymore!
Now, you can add individual members, an entire Team, and/or multiple Teams to a People Custom Field! 👥 This update is great for identifying a Team owner or even multiple Team stakeholders for a task that touches multiple cross-functional hands.
To add a Team, create a new People Custom Field or navigate to an existing one then simply select your Team! 👯♀️ Streamline this process even more by using Automations to automatically add Teams to People Custom Fields!
A Note from our CEO
Hey everyone! For the last few weeks, we've been keeping our focus on increasing overall performance and solving multiple, critical bugs. This type of work typically takes longer and results in less noticeable weekly updates, but we're confident we're on track to see significant speed improvements in the platform very soon!
Here's a progress report:
Hiring:
-
We've made several key leadership hires in engineering in the last few weeks, all of whom are leaders that have successfully tackled complex problems in past roles.
-
These new leaders will remain focused on reviewing our current processes around bugs and implementing new procedures.
-
We're also doubling down on the number of engineers we are hiring, already hiring over 10 this month!
Infrastructure:
-
We've hired 3 additional DevOps engineers so we can have specialized attention in key areas.
-
As we continue rebuilding our production infrastructure, the team is specifically focusing on the key areas that will yield increased reliability and stability.
-
We're currently prototyping new storage mechanisms on the backend to increase speed and productivity across the platform.
Search Refactoring:
-
Testing is underway in our internal environments for the new search data pipeline - this is a big win and we're seeing great initial results!
-
We'll continue to make adjustments and work to get this released for all users ASAP.
Notifications/Dashboards:
-
While we work on more holistic improvements to dashboards and notifications that take longer to test and release, we're identifying quick fixes that we can push to our users for immediate improvements.
We have a lot of work to do and we won't stop until it's done. We appreciate your feedback and support on this journey and I know we'll deliver on our promise of a reliable and stable platform to save our users time. Thank you so much for sticking by us!

Other Improvements
More Visibility for Protected Views
We've made it easier than ever to identify if a view is protected! After enabling Protect view via the Sharing & Permissions view settings, you'll now see a shield icon located at the top of your view tab + at the bottom right corner of your view.
If you make any changes to the view, you can click on the shield icon on the bottom right of your view to easily revert back to the view's protected state! 🔒
Note: Protecting a view is available on the Business Plan and above.
More Details for Error Codes
We've added more details to error code messages to make it clear which actions to take next. 🦸 For complex error codes, you'll now be asked to contact our Customer Support team for assistance.
Best of all, we've fixed some of the commonly recurring error codes and have more improvements to come! 🎉
Canny Integration
Canny is a third-party platform that has developed an integration to allow you to link Canny posts to ClickUp tasks. Associate your customer feedback with tasks in ClickUp and keep your customers updated with status changes to communicate priorities. To learn more about how this integration works, click here!
Additional Update: In accordance with GDPR, we are required to notify you that we added three sub-processors, Split.io, LaunchDarkly, Segment.io, and updated an existing sub-processor, Amplitude.
