How to Use ClickUp Oracle Agents
ClickUp Oracle agents give your workspace an intelligent layer that can answer questions, analyze data, and automate work using your existing tasks, docs, and tools. This guide walks you through enabling the Oracle feature, setting up agents, and using them step by step.
What Are ClickUp Oracle Agents?
Oracle agents are AI assistants that live inside your ClickUp workspace. They can read workspace content, interpret your tools, and return answers or actions based on your prompts.
Unlike generic chatbots, these agents are specialized for your work environment. They are designed to:
- Understand workspace structure, tasks, and docs
- Use built-in and connected tools to gather context
- Provide responses grounded in your company data
- Follow the permissions and visibility settings already in place
Each Oracle agent can be customized with its own role, instructions, and capabilities so different teams can create their own focused assistants.
Prerequisites to Use ClickUp Oracle
Before you start, make sure you meet the basic requirements for using Oracle agents in ClickUp:
- Oracle must be available on your current plan or enabled as an add-on
- You must have the necessary workspace permissions to manage AI features
- Your workspace needs relevant data (tasks, docs, views, dashboards) for the agents to reference
If you are unsure about availability or access, contact your workspace admin or check your plan settings in the app.
How to Enable Oracle in ClickUp
The first step is to enable the Oracle feature so that agents can be created and used across the workspace.
Step 1: Open Workspace Settings
- Sign in to your ClickUp account.
- Open the main sidebar and go to your workspace settings or admin area.
- Locate the AI or Oracle section in the workspace configuration panel.
The exact navigation may vary slightly depending on your interface updates, but Oracle will appear as an AI-related workspace feature.
Step 2: Turn On Oracle Agents
- In the Oracle or AI section, locate the toggle or control to enable Oracle.
- Turn on the feature for the entire workspace or for selected spaces, depending on your needs.
- Review any usage limits, billing notes, or permission options shown in the panel.
Once Oracle is enabled, your teams can begin creating and using AI agents in supported views and tools.
Creating Your First ClickUp Oracle Agent
After enabling Oracle, you can create dedicated agents tailored to specific workflows, such as project reporting, customer support, or product research.
Step 3: Access the Oracle Agent Builder
- Open ClickUp and navigate to an area where Oracle agents are supported, such as the AI or automation section.
- Look for a button or link labeled something like “Create Oracle agent” or “New agent.”
- Click to open the Oracle agent builder interface.
The builder guides you through defining the behavior, permissions, and tools for each agent.
Step 4: Define the Agent Role and Name
- Give the agent a clear, descriptive name, such as “Project Status Oracle” or “Customer Support Oracle.”
- Write a short role description explaining what the agent is responsible for, for example:
- “You summarize sprint progress for engineering managers.”
- “You answer questions about current customer tickets.”
- Specify the tone and style if needed, such as concise, analytical, or friendly.
A well-defined role helps the agent stay focused and provide more accurate, consistent responses.
Step 5: Configure Data Access
- Choose which spaces, folders, or lists the agent can access.
- Limit data access based on team, client, or project boundaries.
- Ensure the agent respects existing ClickUp permissions, so it cannot reveal private or restricted information.
This configuration is crucial: it allows Oracle agents to use relevant content while maintaining security and compliance.
Step 6: Connect Tools and Capabilities
- Enable built-in workspace tools that the agent can use, such as tasks, docs, dashboards, or reporting views.
- If supported, connect external tools (for example, CRM or code repositories) that you want the agent to interpret.
- Choose the default actions the agent can perform, such as summarizing, analyzing, or generating content.
By selecting the right tools, you make sure each Oracle agent works with the data that matters most to your team.
Using ClickUp Oracle Agents in Daily Work
Once your Oracle agents are configured, you can start using them directly in your workspace to speed up existing workflows.
Step 7: Ask Questions in Context
- Open a relevant area in ClickUp, such as a project list, sprint board, or documentation page.
- Launch the Oracle interface for the agent you want to use.
- Ask questions grounded in that context, for example:
- “What are the highest-risk tasks this week?”
- “Summarize open bugs by priority and assignee.”
- “Provide a status report for this client project.”
The agent reads the available information, including tasks, fields, and related docs, and returns an answer based on your workspace data.
Step 8: Generate Summaries and Reports
- Use Oracle agents to create on-demand updates and summaries for stakeholders.
- Ask the agent to generate a written report that you can paste into docs or messages.
- Refine the output by requesting more detail, a different tone, or a specific format (bullets, tables, or sections).
Because these agents rely on live workspace information, reports stay aligned with the most current project data.
Step 9: Support Decision-Making
- Use agents to analyze patterns, blockers, or trends in your ClickUp tasks and fields.
- Ask for comparisons between projects, time periods, or assignees.
- Request action recommendations, such as which tasks to prioritize or where capacity is limited.
While final decisions are still up to your team, Oracle agents can quickly surface insights that would otherwise require manual analysis.
Best Practices for ClickUp Oracle Agents
To get the most value from Oracle agents, follow these practical recommendations.
Design Focused Agents
- Create multiple specialized agents rather than one general-purpose assistant.
- Align each agent with a single category of work, like product roadmaps, sales pipelines, or customer tickets.
- Give clear instructions so the agent knows what to prioritize.
Maintain Clean Workspace Data
- Keep task names, custom fields, and statuses consistent.
- Make sure important information lives in tasks or docs, not only in chat or external emails.
- Archive or close obsolete lists and spaces that you no longer want agents to reference.
The higher the quality of the data in ClickUp, the better the answers your Oracle agents will provide.
Review Outputs Regularly
- Spot-check responses for accuracy, especially early in deployment.
- Update agent instructions when you see repeated misunderstandings.
- Adjust data access if agents surface content that should remain private.
Governance and Security in ClickUp Oracle
Oracle is designed to respect the same permissions and visibility rules already configured in your workspace.
- Agents can only access content that is visible to their configured scope.
- Private or restricted spaces remain hidden when not explicitly granted.
- Workspace admins can manage who is allowed to create or modify Oracle agents.
Before rolling out broadly, set clear internal guidelines on acceptable use of AI, data handling, and review routines.

Next Steps for Your Team
To bring Oracle into everyday operations, start small and iterate:
- Enable Oracle for your ClickUp workspace and confirm permissions.
- Create one or two focused agents for a high-impact use case, like status reporting.
- Gather feedback from a small pilot group and refine the agent configuration.
- Roll out successful agents to additional teams and document internal best practices.
By following these steps, your organization can turn ClickUp into a more intelligent, proactive system that surfaces answers and insights right where your teams already work.
