Rize time tracking with ClickUp

The Rize integration with ClickUp lets you automatically track time spent on tasks, focus sessions, and app usage so you can understand and improve your productivity without manual effort.

This step-by-step guide explains how to connect the apps, enable automatic tracking, link task work, and manage the integration safely.

What the Rize and ClickUp integration does

The integration connects your productivity data in Rize with your task management in ClickUp.

When configured, Rize can:

• Sync ClickUp tasks into Rize for easy selection while you work.
• Automatically track time based on the active window and task selection.
• Show detailed focus statistics for your ClickUp work.
• Help you review where your time goes across projects and lists.

This is especially useful if you want deep insights into your work habits without having to start and stop timers manually.

Requirements before connecting Rize and ClickUp

Before you set up the integration, make sure you have:

• An active Rize account.
• An active ClickUp Workspace where you can authorize apps.
• Permission to connect third-party tools to your Workspace.

You do not need to install a separate browser extension for the integration itself, because Rize runs on your desktop and communicates with ClickUp through a secure token.

How to connect Rize with ClickUp

Follow these steps to link your accounts and start syncing tasks.

Step 1: Open Rize settings

1. Launch the Rize desktop app.
2. Open the Settings or Integrations section from the main menu.

This is where Rize lists all available connections, including ClickUp.

Step 2: Select the ClickUp integration

1. In the integrations area, look for ClickUp.
2. Click the option to Connect or Enable.

Rize will redirect you to a secure authorization page in your browser.

Step 3: Authorize Rize in ClickUp

1. Sign in to your ClickUp account if you are not already logged in.
2. Choose the correct Workspace you want to connect.
3. Review the requested permissions Granting access allows Rize to read tasks and relevant data.
4. Click Authorize to confirm the integration.

After authorization, you are redirected back to Rize, and the connection to ClickUp is active.

How the ClickUp integration works in Rize

Once connected, Rize uses your ClickUp data to make task-based time tracking straightforward.

Syncing ClickUp tasks into Rize

Rize imports tasks from your ClickUp Workspace so you can select what you are working on directly inside Rize.

• Tasks may be grouped by Space, Folder, or List, depending on how Rize organizes them.
• When you start working, choose the relevant task from the synced ClickUp list in Rize.
• Rize then attributes your focused time and activity to that task.

This makes later reporting and review much more accurate.

Automatic time tracking for ClickUp tasks

With the integration enabled, Rize tracks your time without manual timers.

• Rize observes which app is active on your screen.
• When you have a ClickUp task selected in Rize, time is automatically associated with that task.
• If you switch tasks in Rize, your tracking follows the new ClickUp item.

You get a clear breakdown of your day by task, project, and activity.

Reviewing productivity insights from ClickUp work

In Rize, you can review how much time you spend on work originating in ClickUp.

• See total focused hours attached to ClickUp tasks.
• Analyze deep work sessions versus distracting time.
• Identify which projects or lists consume most of your schedule.

These insights help you optimize priorities in both tools.

Managing and disconnecting the ClickUp integration

You can pause or fully remove the connection anytime.

How to disable the integration temporarily

1. Open the Rize app.
2. Go to Settings > Integrations.
3. Locate the ClickUp integration.
4. Toggle the status to Off or Pause, if available.

Disabling the integration stops new data from syncing, but usually leaves existing history inside Rize unchanged.

How to revoke access from ClickUp

If you prefer to fully disconnect, revoke authorization in your Workspace.

1. Sign in to your ClickUp account.
2. Open your Workspace settings.
3. Navigate to the section for Apps or Integrations.
4. Find Rize in the list of connected apps.
5. Select the option to Revoke or Remove access.

After revoking, Rize can no longer access your ClickUp data until you reconnect and authorize again.

Privacy, data, and security considerations

The integration works by sharing selected Workspace data from ClickUp with Rize.

To stay in control:

• Review the permissions screen carefully when you first connect.
• Limit the connection to the Workspace and resources you actually need.
• Periodically review active app connections in ClickUp settings.

Tips for using Rize and ClickUp together effectively

To get the most from the integration, align how you use Rize with how you structure your ClickUp Workspace.

Organize ClickUp tasks for better tracking

• Keep task names clear and descriptive so Rize reports are easy to read.
• Use Lists and Folders in ClickUp to group related work, which helps during time analysis.
• Close or archive completed tasks regularly to reduce clutter in the synced list.

Build a daily workflow with Rize and ClickUp

Here is a simple routine you can apply:

1. Start your day by reviewing your ClickUp tasks.
2. Choose your primary task in Rize from the synced ClickUp list.
3. Work in focused blocks while Rize tracks time automatically.
4. At the end of the day, open Rize to review how your time was distributed across ClickUp tasks.

Over time, this workflow shows you where your attention really goes compared to your planned schedule.
