Step-by-Step Guide

How to connect ClickUp to GitHub

Follow these steps to set up your integration. The entire process takes under 5 minutes.

What you'll need

  • An active ClickUp account
  • An active GitHub account with repository access
  • A free Arahi AI account (sign up takes 30 seconds)
1

Create your Arahi AI account

Sign up at app.arahi.ai — it's free and takes 30 seconds. No credit card required. You'll land on the dashboard where you can create your first workflow.

2

Authenticate ClickUp

Click "Add Connection" and select ClickUp from the app directory. You'll be redirected to ClickUp's authorization page. Grant Arahi access to your workspaces, databases, pages, and tasks. You select which workspaces the integration can read and write to.

3

Authenticate GitHub

Same process for GitHub. Click "Add Connection," select GitHub, and authorize access. Grant Arahi access to your repositories, issues, and project data. You control which repos and projects the integration can access.

4

Choose your trigger

Select what event starts the workflow. For this integration, popular triggers include: new item created in clickup or new commit pushed in github. The trigger fires automatically whenever that event happens — no manual intervention.

5

Configure the action

Define what happens when the trigger fires. For example: create issue in github. Map the data fields between ClickUp and GitHub so the right information lands in the right place.

6

Test and activate

Run a test to confirm data flows correctly between ClickUp and GitHub. Check that the fields map as expected, then toggle the workflow on. It runs 24/7 from here — Arahi handles retries, error logging, and monitoring automatically.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about connecting ClickUp and GitHub.

How do I connect ClickUp to GitHub?

Sign up for a free Arahi AI account, then click "Add Connection" to authenticate both ClickUp and GitHub via OAuth. Choose a workflow template — like syncing productivity events to developer tools actions — customize the field mapping, and activate. The entire setup takes under 5 minutes.

What can I automate between ClickUp and GitHub?

Popular automations include: create ClickUp tasks from GitHub issues, sync GitHub PR statuses to ClickUp items, close ClickUp tasks when GitHub issues resolve, and update ClickUp sprint boards from GitHub milestones. Labels and priority fields map automatically.

Is the ClickUp and GitHub integration free?

Arahi AI includes 100 free actions per month on the Starter plan — enough for most small teams. If your ClickUp-to-GitHub workflows need more volume, paid plans start at $29/month with unlimited workflows and priority execution.

Is my ClickUp data secure when connected to GitHub?

Yes. Arahi uses OAuth 2.0 for authentication — we never store your ClickUp or GitHub passwords. All data is encrypted in transit (TLS 1.3) and at rest (AES-256). Your productivity data is only accessed when a workflow runs, and you can revoke access at any time from your Arahi dashboard.

Can I sync data both ways between ClickUp and GitHub?

Yes. You can set up workflows that trigger from either ClickUp or GitHub. For example, create a workflow where ClickUp events update GitHub, and a separate one where GitHub changes sync back to ClickUp. Each direction is configured independently so you have full control.

Do I need technical skills to connect ClickUp and GitHub?

No coding is required. Arahi's visual workflow builder lets you configure triggers, actions, and field mapping with clicks. If you can use ClickUp and GitHub, you can set up the integration. Most users are running their first workflow within 10 minutes.
