Why Choose This Advanced MCP?

ClickUp's official MCP already supports tasks, bulk creation and updates, custom-field values, dependencies, Docs, and basic Chat actions. This server's main advantage is its broader collection of dedicated tools for advanced workflows and workspace administration.

Capability	ClickUp's official MCP: documented coverage	ClickUp MCP (Advanced) by @taazkareem
Task checklists	Dedicated checklist tools not listed	Manage checklists and items, including assignment, nesting, and completion
Goals and key results	Dedicated tools not listed	Create, retrieve, update, and delete goals and key results
Views	Dedicated view-management tools not listed	Manage views and retrieve tasks from a specific view
Chat operations	List channels and send messages	Additional tools for message history, threaded replies, reactions, channel creation, and member management
Time-entry management	Retrieve entries, log time, and control timers	Additional tools for editing entries, time-entry tags, and entry history
Webhooks and task templates	Dedicated management tools not listed	Manage webhooks, discover task templates, and create tasks from templates
Workspace administration	Read hierarchy and create or update Lists and Folders	Additional tools for Spaces, hierarchy permissions, user groups, and guests; some operations require specific ClickUp plans
Hosting control	Operated by ClickUp	Your Railway deployment, domain, configuration, logs, and hosting resources

Choose this template when your workflows need these additional actions or control over hosting. ClickUp's official MCP remains simpler to set up: ClickUp operates it and provides OAuth sign-in. This template requires a developer license, Railway hosting, and a client that supports an API-key header.

Comparison based on public documentation reviewed on 10 October 2026. “Not listed” means no dedicated tool appears in the official tool catalogue. Features, permissions, and plan requirements may change. Broader tool coverage does not guarantee faster execution or unlimited API access.

See the upstream repository for detailed capabilities and current requirements.

About Hosting ClickUp MCP (Advanced) by @taazkareem

This template runs a dedicated ClickUp MCP service on Railway with an authenticated Streamable HTTP endpoint. Supply your ClickUp API token, Workspace ID, and purchased MCP license key. A separate connection secret is generated automatically.

All tool categories are enabled. The configuration includes production logging, configurable request timeouts, and session reconnection support. Compatible clients connect through your Railway HTTPS domain using an API-key header.

You control the deployment, hosting resources, and environment variables. Connected clients share the configured ClickUp account and its permissions. Available actions and throughput remain subject to ClickUp's API limits, account plan, and the installed server version.

Common Use Cases

Automate project delivery: Create tasks from templates, organize checklists, manage goals, and keep project views aligned with your workflows.
Coordinate communication and reporting: Retrieve supported Chat history, work with comments and Docs, and prepare updates using task and time-entry data.
Manage workspace operations: Organize Spaces, Lists, and Folders; configure supported access settings; and manage webhooks for connected workflows.

Why Deploy ClickUp MCP (Advanced) by @taazkareem on Railway?

Railway brings hosting, HTTPS, environment variables, deployment logs, and resource monitoring into one place. Keep your MCP endpoint available without leaving a local computer running, and adjust hosting resources as your usage grows.

Deploy alongside your AI agents and automation services to build connected workflows with less infrastructure management.
