How to Use ClickUp Vision AI Agents

ClickUp Vision transforms images and screenshots into structured, usable data inside your ClickUp workspace. This how-to guide walks you through enabling Vision, capturing visuals, and automating work using AI agents.

Vision is an AI capability that interprets pixels, understands what it sees, and connects visual information to your tasks, docs, and workflows. Instead of manually typing what is on a screen or photo, you can let Vision process it and generate the data you need.

What Vision Does Inside ClickUp

Vision is part of the growing family of AI agents that power work execution. It focuses on visual information and turns it into context your workspace can act on. You can:

• Analyze screenshots, photos, and interface mockups.
• Extract text, structure, and patterns from images.
• Turn visual findings into tickets, checklists, or documentation.
• Connect insights from visuals to other AI agents that plan or execute work.

This makes image-heavy workflows more efficient, especially where details are trapped in screenshots or diagrams.

How ClickUp Vision Understands Images

Vision uses multimodal AI under the hood. It accepts pixels as input and produces natural language, summaries, or structured data as output. While you do not see the technical layers, you can control what Vision pays attention to and how its output is used across ClickUp.

Think of Vision as a translator between what is on the screen and the work objects in your workspace. It analyzes:

• Text inside screenshots and documents.
• Layouts and interface elements.
• Charts, diagrams, and flows.
• Patterns or recurring components that matter to your team.

Getting Started With Vision in ClickUp

To start using Vision, make sure your workspace has access to AI agents and that your role allows you to capture and process images.

Step 1: Access Vision AI

1. Open your ClickUp workspace in a supported browser or desktop app.
2. Navigate to the area where you manage AI agents or automation features.
3. Locate Vision in the list of available AI tools or agent configurations.
4. Ensure Vision is enabled or added to the workflows where you plan to use it.

Once enabled, Vision becomes available as an option when working with screenshots, attached images, or visual inputs across your workspace.

Step 2: Capture or Upload Visuals

You can provide images to Vision in multiple ways, depending on how your team works inside ClickUp.

• Attach screenshots directly to tasks or docs.
• Upload design mockups or diagrams as files.
• Capture interface states or dashboards to document issues.
• Use existing image attachments already stored in your space.

Make sure your images clearly show the content you want Vision to interpret. Good resolution and minimal clutter improve the quality of the analysis.

Step 3: Run Vision on an Image

1. Select the task, doc, or record that contains the image.
2. Open the attachment or image preview.
3. Choose the option to analyze or process the image with Vision.
4. Pick the analysis type, such as summarizing the screen, extracting text, or identifying key issues.
5. Confirm and run the Vision analysis.

Vision will generate an output, such as a summary, structured data, or insights that can be added back into your ClickUp work objects.

Using ClickUp Vision to Power Workflows

Once Vision has interpreted an image, the next step is to connect that information to action. This is where the rest of your workspace and other AI agents come into play.

Convert Visual Findings Into Tickets

You can turn Vision output directly into work items. For example, after analyzing a screenshot of a bug or a customer interface, you can:

• Create a new task with a description generated from the Vision summary.
• Add subtasks based on issues Vision identifies on the screen.
• Apply custom fields to categorize problems or components.

This shortens the path from visual evidence to actionable tickets in ClickUp.

Document Interfaces and Flows in ClickUp

Vision can help you maintain living documentation that matches what users actually see.

1. Capture screenshots of product flows or dashboards.
2. Run Vision to describe the purpose and behavior of each screen.
3. Insert the generated descriptions into product docs or knowledge base entries.
4. Link tasks or epics to the relevant documented screens.

Over time, you build a visual knowledge layer inside ClickUp that stays close to reality.

Support Design and QA Collaboration

Designers, engineers, and QA teams often work from the same image sets. Vision adds a shared layer of interpretation.

• Designers attach mockups and request Vision to summarize key components.
• Engineers reference that summary when implementing features.
• QA uses screenshots of the implemented interface and Vision analysis to confirm expectations.

This helps align teams without requiring everyone to manually re-describe each image.

Best Practices for Vision in ClickUp

To get consistent, high-quality results from Vision, follow these practices inside your ClickUp environment.

Optimize Screenshots for Analysis

• Focus on a single main interface or area per image.
• Avoid overlapping windows or distracting backgrounds.
• Zoom to make text and key elements easy to read.
• Name your attachments clearly so you can find them later.

Give Clear Instructions to Vision

When you trigger Vision, you often provide a simple instruction or prompt. Make it specific:

• “Summarize the main issues visible on this dashboard.”
• “List all navigation items shown in this screenshot.”
• “Describe the checkout flow based on these steps.”

Specific instructions help Vision return focused, actionable information in ClickUp.

Connect Vision With Other AI Agents

Vision works best when combined with other agents that plan, prioritize, or execute work. For example, after Vision extracts issues from a screenshot, another agent can:

• Estimate effort or complexity of each issue.
• Assign tasks to the right team members.
• Generate test cases based on the identified problems.

This chain of agents creates an end-to-end pipeline from image to resolution.

Example Vision Use Cases in ClickUp

Here are some practical ways teams can apply Vision in their daily workflows.

Product and Engineering Teams

• Convert bug screenshots into detailed bug reports.
• Track UI regressions by comparing Vision summaries over time.
• Document user journeys directly from interface captures.

Operations and Support Teams

• Capture customer-facing issues as images and let Vision outline impact.
• Generate internal runbooks from screenshots of tools and dashboards.
• Standardize how visual incidents are recorded across the organization.

Design and Research Teams

• Summarize user testing sessions that rely on interface screenshots.
• Create structured notes from image-based research artifacts.
• Align stakeholders with visual documentation stored in ClickUp.
