    This guide explains how to connect your ClickUp workspace to AtomicSam. The integration helps you link project management tasks directly to your jobs for more accurate time tracking and billing.

    When your team uses ClickUp for task management and AtomicSam for job management, this integration streamlines your workflow. You can stop switching between apps to track time and see progress. This keeps your job records accurate and makes invoicing faster.

    Before you start

    • You need an active ClickUp workspace.
    • You need an active AtomicSam subscription on the Pro or Ultra plan.
    • You must have administrative permissions in both ClickUp and AtomicSam to establish the connection.

    Connect your ClickUp workspace

    1. Navigate to Settings → Integrations.
    2. Find the ClickUp integration in the list and click Connect.
    3. You will be redirected to the ClickUp authorization screen. If you are not already logged in, enter your ClickUp credentials.
    4. Select the ClickUp workspace you want to connect to AtomicSam.
    5. Review the requested permissions and click Allow to grant AtomicSam access.
    6. You will be returned to your AtomicSam Integrations page. The ClickUp integration will now show a Connected status.

    Link ClickUp tasks to jobs

    Once the integration is active, you can link specific ClickUp tasks to your jobs in AtomicSam. This allows time tracked in ClickUp to be associated with the correct job.

    1. Open a Job in AtomicSam.
    2. Go to the Tasks & Time tab.
    3. Click the Link ClickUp Task button.
    4. A modal will appear where you can search for a task from your connected ClickUp workspace.
    5. Find the task you want to link and select it.
    6. Click Link Task to confirm. The task now appears in the job's task list.

    Sync time entries from ClickUp

    Time tracked against a linked task in ClickUp can be pulled into AtomicSam as a time entry on the corresponding job.

    1. Ensure you have tracked time on a task in ClickUp that is already linked to an AtomicSam job.
    2. In AtomicSam, navigate to the Job you want to sync.
    3. In the Tasks & Time tab, find the linked ClickUp task.
    4. Click the Sync Time button next to the task.
    5. AtomicSam fetches any new time tracked in ClickUp since the last sync. These appear as new time entries on the job.

    💡 Tip: Time synchronization is a manual process. We recommend syncing time daily or at the end of each week to keep your job totals accurate.

    Good to know

    • The integration only syncs time from ClickUp to AtomicSam. It does not sync time from AtomicSam back to ClickUp.
    • You can only connect one ClickUp workspace to your AtomicSam organization at a time.
    • When you sync time, AtomicSam maps the ClickUp user to an AtomicSam staff member based on their email address. If an email does not match, the time entry is logged as unassigned. You will need to manually assign it to a staff member.
    • Disconnecting the integration from Settings → Integrations removes all links between jobs and tasks. Previously synced time entries will remain, but you will not be able to sync new time.
    • This integration does not create new jobs in AtomicSam from ClickUp tasks, or vice versa.
