Bugsnag Automations in ClickUp

ClickUp lets you turn Bugsnag error alerts into automated actions so your team can capture issues, assign work, and keep projects updated without leaving your workspace.

This how-to guide walks you through connecting Bugsnag, setting up the automation, understanding available fields, and managing updates over time.

What are Bugsnag Automations in ClickUp?

Bugsnag automations in ClickUp are custom rules that trigger when a Bugsnag event is received. The automation can then create or update items in your Workspace, helping you track bugs alongside the rest of your work.

With this integration, teams can streamline error handling and ensure that every critical issue is visible in their project management flows.

Prerequisites for Using Bugsnag with ClickUp

Before you configure a Bugsnag automation, make sure you have:

• An active ClickUp Workspace with permissions to create automations in the chosen Space or Folder.
• A Bugsnag account with access to project settings.
• Ability to access and paste a webhook URL inside Bugsnag.

Once these basics are in place, you can complete the connection using a few simple steps.

How to Connect Bugsnag to ClickUp

The automation works by using a webhook URL generated inside ClickUp, then added as an endpoint in your Bugsnag project settings.

Step 1: Open Automations in ClickUp

1. Sign in to your ClickUp Workspace.
2. Navigate to the Space, Folder, or List where you want Bugsnag errors to create or update items.
3. Open the Automations menu from the views toolbar or sidebar, depending on your layout.
4. Select the option to create a new automation.

You will configure a trigger and actions that define how Bugsnag data is handled.

Step 2: Choose the Bugsnag Trigger in ClickUp

1. In the builder, select a When trigger related to Bugsnag. This will typically reference when a Bugsnag event is received via webhook.
2. Review the trigger description to confirm it listens for incoming payloads from your error monitoring tool.
3. Continue to the action configuration screen.

The trigger makes sure that only relevant error events from Bugsnag start the automation in ClickUp.

Step 3: Copy the Webhook URL from ClickUp

1. Within the automation configuration, locate the Bugsnag webhook or integration section.
2. Click the option to generate or copy the unique webhook URL.
3. Save this URL temporarily; you will paste it into your Bugsnag project settings next.

This URL is the secure bridge between Bugsnag and your Workspace.

Step 4: Configure the Webhook in Bugsnag

1. Log in to your Bugsnag account.
2. Open the project you want to connect to ClickUp.
3. Navigate to the project settings area where webhooks or integrations can be added.
4. Create a new webhook integration.
5. Paste the webhook URL you copied from ClickUp.
6. Save your changes in Bugsnag.

Once saved, future events that match your Bugsnag configuration will be sent to the ClickUp webhook and can start automations.

How to Build Bugsnag Automations in ClickUp

After the connection is in place, you can fine-tune what happens inside ClickUp when Bugsnag sends an event.

Choose Actions for Your Bugsnag Automation

Configure the Then part of the rule to define how your Workspace responds.

Common actions include:

• Create a new task when a new error is received.
• Post a comment to an existing task when an error reoccurs.
• Update a custom field, priority, or status based on the error severity.
• Assign tasks to a specific user or team responsible for bug fixes.

Each action helps ensure your error data becomes actionable work in ClickUp.

Map Bugsnag Fields to ClickUp Fields

Bugsnag sends structured data with each event. In the automation editor, you can map this data to fields in ClickUp.

Typical mappings you might configure include:

• Error name or title mapped to the task name.
• Error message or stack trace added to the task description or a comment.
• Severity or release stage mapped to a custom field or priority.
• Error URL or dashboard link saved in a custom field or task description.

Using fields consistently helps your team quickly understand context directly inside ClickUp.

Example Use Cases for ClickUp Bugsnag Automations

Here are some ways teams commonly use this integration:

• Automatic bug task creation: Every time a critical error is detected, a task is created in a dedicated bug List with a high priority and assigned to the on-call developer.
• Comment updates on existing tasks: When a recurring error happens for the same code path, a comment is added to an existing bug task with new event details, so the thread stays centralized.
• Release monitoring: For a specific release, Bugsnag events update a custom field indicating how many times an error has occurred, helping teams decide whether a hotfix is needed.

By aligning these workflows with your existing processes, you make ClickUp a central hub for incident tracking and resolution.

Managing and Editing Bugsnag Automations in ClickUp

After your first automation is live, you can refine it as your needs evolve.

How to Edit an Existing Automation

1. Open the relevant Space, Folder, or List in ClickUp.
2. Go to the Automations panel.
3. Locate your Bugsnag automation in the list.
4. Click to edit the rule.
5. Adjust the trigger filters, conditions, or actions.
6. Save your updates.

Edits take effect for future events sent from Bugsnag.

How to Disable or Delete a Bugsnag Automation

If you need to pause or remove a rule:

1. Open the Automations area in your chosen location.
2. Find the Bugsnag-related automation.
3. Toggle the automation off to temporarily disable it, or choose delete to remove it permanently.

Disabling can be helpful when testing different workflows in ClickUp without losing your current setup.

Best Practices for Using Bugsnag with ClickUp

To get the most from this integration, keep these suggestions in mind:

• Use separate Lists for production and staging errors to keep work organized.
• Leverage custom fields to track severity, environment, or component.
• Apply automation conditions so only important events create new tasks, while lower priority items add comments or updates.
• Regularly review your automations to align with changing team responsibilities.

Following these practices helps you avoid noise while still capturing every critical signal inside ClickUp.
