Primetric and ClickUp integration guide

Connecting Primetric with ClickUp lets you synchronize tasks, time tracking, and portfolios so your project and finance data stay aligned in both tools. This step-by-step guide explains how to activate the integration, configure it, and keep your projects running smoothly.

The instructions below are based on the official Primetric integration page and walk you through each stage, from setup to everyday use.

Before you connect Primetric with ClickUp

Before enabling the Primetric and ClickUp integration, make sure you have:

• Active accounts in both Primetric and ClickUp.
• Admin or equivalent permissions in each workspace.
• Defined projects, tasks, and basic structures in both systems.

Having a clear structure in each tool helps reduce mapping issues and data mismatches during the first synchronization.

How to enable the Primetric and ClickUp integration

To start using Primetric with ClickUp, you first need to activate the integration from within Primetric. Follow these steps:

1. Log in to your Primetric account using an administrator profile.

2. Navigate to the integrations or settings area dedicated to third-party connections.

3. Locate the option for the Primetric and ClickUp integration.

4. Select the integration and click the button to connect or authorize.

5. When redirected, sign in to your ClickUp workspace if you are not already logged in.

6. Review the requested permissions, then confirm to grant Primetric access to your ClickUp data.

Once the connection is confirmed, Primetric can read and synchronize data according to the configuration you set in the next steps.

For reference, the original integration instructions are available on the official Primetric integration page.

Configure synchronization between Primetric and ClickUp

After enabling the connection, you need to define how projects and tasks move between Primetric and ClickUp. Configuration usually includes mapping structures, choosing sync directions, and setting update rules.

Map projects between Primetric and ClickUp

To keep your portfolio consistent, map projects in Primetric to the appropriate spaces, folders, or lists in ClickUp.

1. Open the integration configuration screen in Primetric.

2. Select the project mapping section.

3. For each project in Primetric, choose the corresponding project structure in ClickUp.

4. Confirm and save the mapping.

This ensures that time entries and task progress in one system correspond to the correct project in the other.

Map tasks and assignees with ClickUp

Next, align your task and user structure, so resource and time data synchronize correctly.

1. Go to the task mapping area in the Primetric integration settings.

2. Select how Primetric tasks should appear in ClickUp (for example, as tasks or subtasks in a chosen list).

3. Map team members in Primetric to corresponding users in ClickUp.

4. Save the configuration to apply it to future synchronizations.

Correct mapping helps avoid duplicate tasks and keeps each person's workload view consistent across both platforms.

Set synchronization rules for ClickUp data

You can usually customize how often and in which direction Primetric exchanges data with ClickUp.

• Choose whether new tasks created in ClickUp should automatically appear in Primetric.

• Define if Primetric is allowed to update task fields like status, estimates, or logged time in ClickUp.

• Set the synchronization interval or trigger the process manually when needed.

Adjusting these rules lets you decide which tool is the primary source of truth for various types of data.

Synchronizing time tracking with Primetric and ClickUp

One of the main benefits of the integration is better control over time tracking and utilization. Primetric can consolidate tracked time from ClickUp and convert it into financial and resource reports.

Import tracked time from ClickUp

To bring time entries from ClickUp into Primetric, use the dedicated time synchronization options.

1. Open the integration time tracking section in Primetric.

2. Select the ClickUp workspace or projects from which you want to import time.

3. Choose the date range for the synchronization.

4. Start the import and wait for the process to complete.

Afterward, review imported time entries in Primetric to confirm that they align with your financial and reporting rules.

Use Primetric reports with ClickUp data

Once time and project details are synced, you can use Primetric to analyze:

• Utilization and capacity for each person or team.

• Profitability and margin on projects mirrored from ClickUp.

• Forecasts and resource plans based on actual tracked time.

This allows you to keep operational work inside ClickUp while using Primetric for planning, budgeting, and portfolio analysis.

Managing portfolios with Primetric and ClickUp

The integration supports managing portfolios at scale by synchronizing multiple projects at once.

Sync multiple projects from ClickUp

If your workspace contains many projects, you can batch-configure them in Primetric.

1. Open the portfolio or projects view in Primetric.

2. Select multiple projects you want to link with ClickUp.

3. Apply a bulk mapping to lists, folders, or spaces in ClickUp.

4. Run a portfolio-level synchronization.

Bulk operations reduce manual work and keep multi-project environments in sync efficiently.

Resolve conflicts between Primetric and ClickUp

When the same item is edited in both tools, the integration must decide which value to keep. Typical settings include:

• Prefer values from Primetric when dealing with financial or allocation data.

• Prefer values from ClickUp when dealing with task descriptions and day-to-day workflow fields.

• Use time-based rules such as "last update wins" for certain fields.

Review conflict handling options in the integration settings and choose the strategy that fits your team's workflow.

Best practices for using Primetric with ClickUp

To keep your integration stable and reliable, consider the following recommendations:

• Maintain a clear naming convention for projects and tasks in both tools.

• Regularly audit user mapping between Primetric and ClickUp to avoid orphaned assignments.

• Schedule periodic synchronization instead of running it only ad hoc.

• Test changes to integration settings on a small subset of projects before applying them to an entire portfolio.

These habits help prevent data discrepancies and minimize rework.

Troubleshooting the Primetric and ClickUp integration

If synchronization does not work as expected, use these checks:

• Verify that the authorization token or connection to ClickUp has not expired.

• Confirm that mapped projects and users still exist in both tools.

• Review recent changes to permissions in ClickUp that might block access.

• Check integration logs in Primetric for specific error messages.

If problems persist, contact Primetric support with details about the ClickUp workspace, affected projects, and the time range where issues appear.
