How to Use ClickUp Visual Media Generation
ClickUp gives AI agents the ability to create images and videos directly from your workspace, so your team can speed up content production and reduce manual creative work.
This guide explains how visual media generation works, what it can create, and how to use it safely and effectively in your daily workflows.
What Visual Media Generation in ClickUp Can Do
With AI agents, you can generate visual assets in a few seconds. The visual media generation feature supports:
- Static images for documents, tasks, and presentations
- Short video clips for marketing, explainers, or demos
- On-demand creative variations based on prompts
- Faster ideation for campaigns and product visuals
Visual media generation is designed to reduce repetitive creative work while keeping your team in control of the final assets.
How ClickUp AI Agents Generate Media
AI agents in ClickUp follow a structured process to turn prompts into usable media. While the underlying models are complex, the workflow for users is straightforward:
- You provide a prompt and context inside a task, doc, or comment.
- The AI agent interprets the request and calls visual media tools.
- The system generates draft images or videos based on your input.
- You review, refine prompts, and request new versions as needed.
- Approved media can be attached, embedded, or shared across your workspace.
This flow lets teams stay focused on strategy while delegating repetitive media production to AI agents in ClickUp.
Preparing Effective Prompts in ClickUp
Good prompts are essential for high-quality media. Before starting, define:
- Goal: What the image or video should communicate.
- Audience: Internal team, customers, or stakeholders.
- Format: Image style or video length and orientation.
- Brand context: Colors, tone, and visual guidelines.
ClickUp Prompt Best Practices
When working with AI agents, use prompts that are:
- Specific: Describe subject, mood, and setting.
- Contextual: Refer to the task, document, or campaign.
- Iterative: Start simple, then refine with feedback.
- Compliant: Avoid sensitive, restricted, or copyrighted content you do not own.
Example structured prompt you might use inside a task:
- “Create a clean, minimal product hero image showing a project dashboard on a laptop, white background, brand colors blue and purple, for a SaaS landing page.”
Step-by-Step: Using Visual Media Generation in ClickUp
Use the following general workflow to integrate visual media into your day-to-day work with AI agents.
Step 1: Set the Task Context
Start from the task, doc, or space where the media will be used. Clearly document:
- What the asset is for (blog, ad, pitch deck, etc.).
- Any required dimensions or format.
- References to past assets you like.
This context helps AI agents generate media that fits the work item, not just the isolated prompt.
Step 2: Craft and Submit Your Prompt
Inside ClickUp, provide a concise but detailed prompt for the agent. Include:
- Subject and composition (what should be visible).
- Style (realistic, illustration, 3D, flat, etc.).
- Use case (thumbnail, header, social post, explainer clip).
- Brand elements if applicable (logo placement, colors).
Submit the prompt and let the AI agent handle the generation process.
Step 3: Review the Draft Media
Once the media is generated, review it directly in your workspace:
- Check if it matches task objectives.
- Confirm it aligns with brand and accessibility guidelines.
- Identify any parts that need adjustment or a new angle.
If needed, provide a follow-up prompt with clear feedback, such as “simplify background,” “use lighter colors,” or “show the interface from a different angle.”
Step 4: Iterate and Finalize
AI agents in ClickUp support rapid iteration. Use this to your advantage:
- Request multiple variations to compare.
- Adjust prompts based on stakeholder feedback.
- Refine until the media is ready for production use.
When finalized, attach the media to the task or embed it in a related document for easy access and review.

Visual media generation can support many teams and use cases. A few common scenarios include:

Responsible Use of Visual Media in ClickUp
Whenever you generate images or videos with AI agents, consider responsible use and compliance:
- Respect intellectual property and only replicate styles you are allowed to use.
- Avoid generating misleading or harmful content.
- Follow your organization’s brand and legal policies.
- Be transparent internally about which assets are AI-generated when relevant.
Your organization may define additional internal rules for how visual media generation is used, so align with those standards before deploying assets broadly.
