ClickUp Hubs How-To Guide

How to Use ClickUp Hubs

ClickUp Hubs let you bring your most important work, tools, and information together in one organized space so your team can access everything quickly and consistently.

This step-by-step guide walks you through how to open, navigate, and customize Hubs, plus how to add content and share it with your workspace.

What ClickUp Hubs Are

Hubs are customizable spaces that centralize:

  • Work items like tasks and views
  • Documentation and wikis
  • Apps such as Figma and Google Drive
  • Workflows and resource pages

You can create multiple Hubs tailored to different teams, projects, or use cases so teammates always know where to go to find what they need.

How to Open Hubs in ClickUp

You can open Hubs from the Sidebar or from a built-in shortcut so you can access them anytime while you work.

Open ClickUp Hubs from the Sidebar

  1. In the left Sidebar, locate the Hubs section.
  2. Click the Hubs icon to open the Hubs home area.
  3. Browse the list of available Hubs that you can access.

Once open, you can pin Hubs for faster access and quickly switch between different workspaces or teams.

Open a ClickUp Hub from Anywhere

  1. Look for the quick access button or menu in your top navigation.
  2. Click the control to open the Hubs panel or window.
  3. Select the Hub you want to view from the list.

This makes it easy to jump into your centralized resources without leaving the page or view you are working in.

Understand the ClickUp Hubs Layout

Each Hub uses a card-based layout so you can organize work and resources visually.

Typical areas inside a Hub include:

  • Header: Name, description, and key actions for the Hub.
  • Sections or groups: Logical areas such as Onboarding, Team Resources, or Project Links.
  • Cards: Individual items, like a document, page, or external app.

You can rearrange content to match how your team thinks and works.

How to Create a New ClickUp Hub

If you have the right permissions, you can build a new Hub for your team or workflow.

  1. Open the Hubs area from the Sidebar or quick access menu.
  2. Click New Hub or the plus (+) button.
  3. Enter a clear name that explains the purpose, such as “Marketing Home” or “Product Launch”.
  4. Add an optional description so people know what the Hub contains.
  5. Choose visibility or access options based on your workspace settings.
  6. Click Create to open the blank Hub.

After it is created, you can begin adding sections and content items for your team.

Add Content to Your ClickUp Hub

Hubs become powerful when you add the items your team needs every day.

Add Work Items and Views

  1. Open the Hub you want to edit.
  2. Click Add or the plus (+) icon in the section where you want content.
  3. Select an item type such as task view, dashboard, doc, or whiteboard.
  4. Search for and select the specific item from your workspace.
  5. Confirm to add it as a card in that section.

This lets teammates open key work items directly from the Hub without searching through Spaces and Folders.

Add Docs and Knowledge Content

  1. Open your Hub and navigate to the right section.
  2. Click Add and choose documentation or wiki content.
  3. Create a new doc or attach an existing one.
  4. Use clear titles and brief descriptions so information is easy to scan.

Centralizing process docs, onboarding checklists, and FAQs ensures everyone works from the same source of truth.

Add External Apps and Links

  1. From a section in your Hub, click Add.
  2. Choose an external app or link option.
  3. Paste the URL or select an existing integration item, like a Figma file or Google Sheet.
  4. Give the card a descriptive name so people know what it opens.

This connects your ClickUp Hub to important tools outside your workspace while keeping navigation simple.

Organize and Customize a ClickUp Hub

You can fine-tune the structure of each Hub so it matches your team’s workflow.

Reorder Sections and Cards

  1. Hover over the section or card you want to move.
  2. Use drag-and-drop to place it where it belongs.
  3. Group related content together, such as all onboarding items in one area.

Reordering helps highlight the most important content at the top of the Hub.

Rename and Edit Sections

  1. Click the section title you want to change.
  2. Type a new, descriptive name such as “Daily Work” or “Team Policies”.
  3. Save your changes.

Clear labels help teammates quickly find the right information.

Share and Access ClickUp Hubs

Sharing settings depend on your workspace configuration, but common steps include:

  1. Open the Hub you want to share.
  2. Click the share or settings icon in the Hub header.
  3. Review who can view or edit the Hub.
  4. Adjust access to include the right teams, guests, or members.
  5. Copy the Hub link to share in chat, email, or docs.

When people open the shared link, they can see the organized resources and quickly jump into related work.

Use Cases for ClickUp Hubs

You can design Hubs for many different scenarios, including:

  • Onboarding Hub: Training docs, introductory tasks, and key tools.
  • Team Home Hub: Weekly agendas, team goals, and shared dashboards.
  • Project Hub: Roadmaps, requirements, and reference files.
  • Operations Hub: Policies, procedures, and support workflows.

This flexibility makes Hubs a central navigation layer for complex work.
