How to Connect ClickUp AI Agents to Google Cloud
This step-by-step guide explains how to connect ClickUp AI Agents to your Google Cloud Platform (GCP) project so you can securely run automated workflows against your cloud resources.
You will learn how to authorize your GCP account, assign the right roles, and verify the connection so that ClickUp AI Agents can execute actions on your behalf without manual intervention.
What You Need Before Connecting ClickUp to GCP
Before you start, prepare the following so the integration works smoothly and securely:
- An active Google Cloud Platform project.
- Owner or admin access to that GCP project.
- Access to the ClickUp AI Agents workspace where you want to use the integration.
- Pop-ups enabled in your browser for Google authentication.
Having the correct access in both systems helps avoid connection failures and permission errors when ClickUp AI tries to run tasks in GCP.
How ClickUp AI Agents Work With GCP
ClickUp AI Agents connect to GCP through OAuth and use the permissions you grant to execute tasks such as reading or modifying resources. The exact capabilities depend on how you configure roles in your Google Cloud project.
The connection is secure and scoped to your chosen project. You can later review or revoke the granted access from your Google Cloud console if needed.
Step 1: Open the ClickUp AI Agents Integration Page
Start from your workspace where AI Agents are available:
- Log in to your ClickUp account in a supported browser.
- Navigate to the AI Agents section from your workspace menu or settings area.
- Locate the integrations or connections tab dedicated to external services.
- Select the option to connect a new provider and choose the Google Cloud integration for your AI Agents.
The integration page summarizes what permissions are required and what ClickUp AI Agents will be able to do once connected.
Step 2: Authorize ClickUp With Your Google Account
On the integration page, you will see a button that starts the Google OAuth process:
- Click the button to Sign in with Google or Connect Google Cloud.
- In the Google sign-in window, choose the Google account that has access to your target GCP project.
- Review the consent screen. It lists the permissions requested so ClickUp AI can interact with project resources.
- Confirm by clicking Allow to grant access.
When permission is granted, you are redirected back to the AI Agents configuration page in ClickUp, which will now attempt to discover your available GCP projects.
Step 3: Select the Google Cloud Project for ClickUp
If your Google account has more than one project, you need to choose which one ClickUp AI Agents should use:
- From the project selection dropdown, pick the correct GCP project ID or name.
- Confirm your choice to bind the AI Agent integration to that specific project.
- Wait while the connection is validated against your current permissions.
Using a dedicated project or a clearly named environment (for example, ai-automation-prod) makes it easier to audit actions taken by your ClickUp AI Agents inside GCP.
Step 4: Configure GCP Roles for ClickUp AI Agents
For the integration to function, your Google Cloud project must provide the minimum roles required for the operations you expect the AI Agents to perform.
Assigning Roles to the ClickUp Service Identity
When you complete OAuth, Google Cloud may create or reference a service identity that represents the ClickUp integration. To ensure it works properly:
- Go to the IAM & Admin section of your Google Cloud console.
- Locate the principal or service account associated with the ClickUp AI integration.
- Assign roles that match your use case, such as read-only roles for safe access or editor-level roles if you want the agent to create and modify resources.
- Save your updates in the IAM console.
Follow the principle of least privilege. Grant only the roles needed for the workflows you plan to run through ClickUp AI Agents.
Testing Permissions With ClickUp AI
After roles are assigned, test the integration from inside ClickUp:
- Trigger a simple AI Agent workflow that lists or inspects resources in your GCP project.
- Confirm the result returns successfully without permission errors.
- If you see an error, revisit IAM & Admin to adjust the assigned roles.
Iterative testing helps tune the exact set of permissions required for your production automation.
Step 5: Enable ClickUp AI Agents in Your Workflows
With the GCP connection active, you can now embed AI Agents into your existing processes inside ClickUp.
Using ClickUp AI Agents in Tasks
In supported spaces or tasks, you can:
- Attach an AI Agent that is configured to access the connected Google Cloud project.
- Define triggers, such as task status changes or due dates, that cause the AI Agent to run.
- Specify what the AI Agent should do in GCP, such as fetching data, updating metadata, or orchestrating cloud operations according to your prompts.
This allows your team to run repeatable, auditable workflows without leaving ClickUp.
Monitoring AI Agent Activity
For governance and troubleshooting:
- Review AI Agent run history or logs available in the ClickUp AI interface.
- Correlate those activities with audit logs in your Google Cloud console.
- Adjust prompts, triggers, or IAM roles to refine reliability and security.
Combining both perspectives gives you a full picture of how automation behaves in your environment.
Managing and Disconnecting the ClickUp–GCP Integration
You can update or revoke the integration at any time.
Updating Project or Permissions
If you need to move ClickUp AI Agents to another GCP project or change what they can access:
- Return to the AI Agents integration settings inside ClickUp.
- Change the selected Google Cloud project if the interface allows multiple projects.
- Update IAM roles in the new project using the same steps as before.
This is useful when moving from a test environment into production or when restructuring your cloud organization.
Disconnecting ClickUp From Google Cloud
To fully disconnect:
- Open the integration page in your ClickUp workspace.
- Click the option to Disconnect or Remove the Google Cloud connection.
- Optionally, visit your Google account security page and remove the ClickUp app from the list of third-party access entries.
- In the GCP console, revoke or delete the related service identity if it is no longer needed.
After disconnection, AI Agents will no longer be able to run tasks against your Google Cloud resources.
Security Best Practices for ClickUp and GCP
To keep your integration safe:
- Use separate GCP projects for testing and production.
- Grant only the minimal roles necessary for each AI Agent workflow.
- Regularly review IAM permissions for the ClickUp service identity.
- Monitor audit logs in GCP and AI Agent logs in your workspace.
- Rotate credentials or recreate the integration if you suspect any compromise.
These measures help ensure your automation stays compliant with internal and external security standards.
