ClickUp MCP connector for Manus

Run your ClickUp tasks, docs and reports from one chat

Manus is an independent AI agent that works in ClickUp with your own account. It isn’t ClickUp Brain, ClickUp’s built-in AI: it connects through ClickUp’s official MCP server and only does what your account is allowed to do.

Questions about the ClickUp MCP connector

How do I connect ClickUp to Manus?

Open Connectors in Manus, select ClickUp and sign in with your ClickUp account to approve access. Manus picks up the Workspace you signed in to. After that, mention ClickUp in a task, with a list, Doc or task name if you have one.

What can Manus read and change in ClickUp?

It can search and read tasks, comments, lists, folders and Docs. It can create and update tasks, including status, assignees, priority and due dates, move tasks between lists, create lists and folders, and add or edit Doc pages. It can only do what your ClickUp account is allowed to do.

Is Manus the same as ClickUp Brain?

No. That’s ClickUp’s built-in AI, and Super Agents are the ClickUp AI agents that live in your Workspace. Manus is a separate AI agent that connects through ClickUp’s official MCP server and works with your own account, on any ClickUp plan.

Will Manus put tasks in the wrong list?

When you haven’t named a list, Manus asks which one to use before it creates tasks, instead of guessing. It finds lists and folders by name, so you can simply say where the tasks should go.

Does it work with a large ClickUp Workspace?

Yes. Manus looks up lists and folders by name and reads large Workspaces page by page. ClickUp sets a daily limit on MCP calls that depends on your plan and add-ons, so check ClickUp’s MCP rate limits for your Workspace.

Does Manus support the ClickUp MCP?

Yes. The ClickUp connector uses ClickUp’s official MCP server at https://mcp.clickup.com/mcp, so you don’t set up a ClickUp MCP server yourself. ClickUp only allows OAuth sign-in for MCP, so there’s no API key to paste.

Can I disconnect ClickUp from Manus?

Yes. Open Connectors in Manus, select ClickUp and choose Disconnect. You can connect again at any time by signing in.

Can I keep my Claude ClickUp or ClickUp ChatGPT connection?

Yes. ClickUp’s official MCP server works with many AI apps, including Claude and ChatGPT. Connecting Manus is a separate sign-in, so you can keep using those apps alongside it.

Do I need a ClickUp Zapier setup to use ClickUp in Manus?

No. ClickUp has its own connector in Manus, so you don’t need Zapier to reach it. If your team already uses Zapier, you can turn on the Zapier connector in the same task to work in other apps. It has its own page in the links above.
