ClickUp CI Integration

Overview

Automate ClickUp integration testing in CI and sync task statuses from your pipeline. Uses GitHub Actions with live API testing against ClickUp API v2.

GitHub Actions Workflow

Configure Secrets

bash
# Store ClickUp token in GitHub Secrets
gh secret set CLICKUP_API_TOKEN --body "pk_12345678_YOUR_TOKEN"

# Store test list ID (for integration tests to create/delete test tasks)
gh secret set CLICKUP_TEST_LIST_ID --body "900100200300"

Integration Test Suite

typescript
// tests/integration/clickup-ci.test.ts
import { describe, it, expect, afterAll } from 'vitest';

const TOKEN = process.env.CLICKUP_API_TOKEN!;
const TEST_LIST = process.env.CLICKUP_TEST_LIST_ID!;
const BASE = 'https://api.clickup.com/api/v2';
const createdTaskIds: string[] = [];

async function api(path: string, options?: RequestInit) {
  const res = await fetch(`${BASE}${path}`, {
    ...options,
    headers: { 'Authorization': TOKEN, 'Content-Type': 'application/json', ...options?.headers },
  });
  return { status: res.status, data: await res.json() };
}

describe('ClickUp API Integration', () => {
  it('authenticates successfully', async () => {
    const { status, data } = await api('/user');
    expect(status).toBe(200);
    expect(data.user.id).toBeDefined();
  });

  it('creates a task in test list', async () => {
    const { status, data } = await api(`/list/${TEST_LIST}/task`, {
      method: 'POST',
      body: JSON.stringify({
        name: `CI Test Task - ${new Date().toISOString()}`,
        description: 'Created by CI pipeline, safe to delete',
        priority: 4,
      }),
    });
    expect(status).toBe(200);
    expect(data.id).toBeDefined();
    createdTaskIds.push(data.id);
  });

  it('reads the created task', async () => {
    const { status, data } = await api(`/task/${createdTaskIds[0]}`);
    expect(status).toBe(200);
    expect(data.name).toContain('CI Test Task');
  });

  afterAll(async () => {
    // Cleanup: delete test tasks
    for (const id of createdTaskIds) {
      await api(`/task/${id}`, { method: 'DELETE' });
    }
  });
});

Sync CI Status to ClickUp Task

typescript
// scripts/update-clickup-task.ts
// Run after deploy: npx tsx scripts/update-clickup-task.ts TASK_ID "deployed"
async function updateTaskFromCI(taskId: string, newStatus: string) {
  const response = await fetch(
    `https://api.clickup.com/api/v2/task/${taskId}`,
    {
      method: 'PUT',
      headers: {
        'Authorization': process.env.CLICKUP_API_TOKEN!,
        'Content-Type': 'application/json',
      },
      body: JSON.stringify({ status: newStatus }),
    }
  );

  if (!response.ok) {
    console.error(`Failed to update task ${taskId}:`, await response.text());
    process.exit(1);
  }
  console.log(`Task ${taskId} status updated to "${newStatus}"`);
}

const [taskId, status] = process.argv.slice(2);
updateTaskFromCI(taskId, status);

Error Handling

Issue Cause Solution
Secret not found Missing GitHub secret gh secret set CLICKUP_API_TOKEN
401 in CI Token expired/rotated Update secret value
Rate limited in CI Too many test runs Add pre-flight rate check
Integration test cleanup fails Task already deleted Ignore 404 on cleanup
