How ClickUp works in Shift
Adding ClickUp to Shift keeps your projects alongside the other apps involved in getting work done. Add ClickUp to a dedicated Space with your email, team chat, calendar, design tools, cloud storage, or other project apps so everything related to a workflow stays organized together.
If you manage multiple ClickUp accounts or organizations, Shift lets you keep them signed in and accessible alongside one another without repeatedly logging in and out. This is useful when you work across personal projects, client accounts, or separate company workspaces.
Use Spaces to organize ClickUp with the tools needed for different projects or teams, making it easier to move between planning, communication, and execution without digging through a crowded collection of browser tabs.
