ClickUp
This page describes how to configure the ClickUp connector as part of a data pipeline within Designer.
The ClickUp connector is a Flex connector. In the Data Productivity Cloud, Flex connectors let you connect to a curated set of endpoints to load data.
You can use the ClickUp connector in its preconfigured state, or you can edit the connector by adding or amending available ClickUp endpoints as per your use case. You can edit Flex connectors in the Custom Connector user interface.
For detailed information about authentication, specific endpoints parameters, pagination, and more aspects of the ClickUp API, read the ClickUp API documentation There are two versions of the ClickUp API, both of which you can access through the link provided.
Properties
Reference material is provided below for the Connect, Configure, Destination, and Advanced Settings properties.

- Fail if Exists: If the specified table name already exists, this pipeline will fail to run.
- Append: If the specified table name already exists, then the data is inserted without altering or deleting the existing data in the table. It's appended onto the end of the existing data in the table. If the specified table name doesn't exist, then the table will be created, and your data will be inserted into the table. For example, if you have a source holding 100 records, then on the first pipeline run, your target table will be created and 100 rows will be inserted. On the second pipeline run, those same 100 records will be appended to your existing target table, so now it holds 200 records. Third pipeline run will be 300 records in your table, and so on.
