Clip Screen Recording in ClickUp
Clip screen recording in ClickUp lets you quickly capture your screen, camera, or both, so you can share visual updates, walkthroughs, and feedback without needing a meeting. This guide explains how to install Clip, start recording, manage settings, and share your videos.
What is ClickUp Clip screen recording?
The Clip feature in ClickUp is a built-in screen and video recorder. It runs in your browser and lets you capture:
- Your entire screen
- A specific application window
- A browser tab
- Your camera, with or without screen sharing
Once you finish recording, your video is automatically processed and stored, so you can easily reuse or share it with your Workspace.
Requirements for using ClickUp Clip
Before recording with Clip, make sure your environment meets these basic requirements.
Supported browsers for ClickUp Clip
Clip screen recording works in modern browsers that support native screen and camera capture. For best results, use the latest version of a Chromium-based browser such as Chrome or Edge.
- Enable permissions for camera and microphone in your browser settings.
- Allow screen recording access when your browser prompts you.
Workspace permissions in ClickUp
Depending on how your Workspace is configured, admins may control who can record or view Clips. If you cannot access Clip options, contact your Workspace owner or admin to verify your permissions.
How to start a Clip screen recording in ClickUp
You can launch Clip from several areas in ClickUp. The basic recording flow is the same no matter where you start.
Open Clip from the ClickUp interface
- Sign in to your ClickUp Workspace.
- Navigate to the area where you want to attach or share a recording, such as a task or Docs.
- Look for the Clip or record icon in the toolbar or task header.
- Select the option to start a new Clip recording.
A recording window or panel will open, allowing you to choose what to capture.
Choose what to record with Clip in ClickUp
When the Clip interface opens, you typically have options similar to:
- Screen only: Record your desktop, window, or browser tab.
- Camera only: Record just your webcam, ideal for quick status updates.
- Screen and camera: Record both, with a small camera overlay on the screen.
After choosing a mode, your browser will prompt you to pick the specific screen, window, or tab you want to share.
Configure audio and camera settings in ClickUp Clip
Before you hit record, verify your devices:
- Select the correct microphone if you have multiple audio devices.
- Toggle the microphone on or off, depending on whether you want narration.
- Choose the right camera if more than one is connected.
- Check the preview to confirm video and audio are working properly.
Recording your screen with ClickUp Clip
Once you have chosen what to share and configured your devices, you can begin capturing your content.
Start and control your ClickUp Clip recording
- Click the Record button to begin capturing.
- Perform the actions you want to show: navigate through tasks, update fields, or demonstrate workflows.
- Use any available on-screen controls, such as pause or resume, if provided in your browser or Clip interface.
- When finished, click Stop to end the recording.
After you stop, ClickUp processes your Clip and generates a video file you can view and share.
Review and trim your Clip recording
Once processing is complete, you can play back your Clip directly inside ClickUp. Depending on your Workspace capabilities, you may be able to:
- Preview the video to confirm audio and visuals.
- Rename the Clip to describe its purpose.
- Add a description or notes for viewers.
If advanced editing tools are not available, you can still redo the recording if needed and keep the final version that best fits your documentation or communication goals.
Sharing and using Clip recordings in ClickUp
Clip recordings are designed to be shared quickly across your Workspace so teams can watch them asynchronously.
Attach Clip recordings to ClickUp tasks
- Open the task where you want to attach your video.
- Use the Clip or attachments area to select your recorded video.
- Insert or attach the Clip so it appears in the task details or comments.
- Notify assignees or watchers so they know a new recording is available.
This approach works well when you want to explain complex issues, show reproduction steps for bugs, or walk through a feature without writing long text descriptions.
Share Clip links with your team
Most Clip recordings in ClickUp can be accessed by link. After saving the recording:
- Copy the link to the Clip.
- Share the link in task comments, Docs, chat tools, or email.
- Adjust visibility or permissions according to your Workspace rules, if needed.
Using shareable links helps you distribute updates to stakeholders who prefer watching a short video instead of reading through multiple updates.
Managing Clip recordings in ClickUp
Over time, you may create many recordings with Clip. Keeping them organized makes it easier for teammates to find the right video when they need it.
Find and organize your ClickUp Clips
To manage your recordings, you can:
- Go to the area of ClickUp where Clips are stored or listed.
- Search by title or filter by date to locate older recordings.
- Rename Clips using clear, descriptive titles, such as “Sprint 10 Review Walkthrough” or “Bug Reproduction Steps.”
Organizing recordings by project, client, or date helps maintain a clear knowledge base of video documentation.
Delete or update Clip recordings
If a Clip is outdated or no longer needed, you can remove it according to your Workspace permissions:
- Open the Clip you want to remove.
- Look for options such as Delete or Remove.
- Confirm the deletion if prompted.
Always confirm that no one still relies on a recording before deleting it, especially if it is linked in key tasks or documentation.
