How do I list tasks in a ClickUp list?
Short answer: Drop the "ClickUp → List Tasks" action anywhere in your workflow, map the inputs from upstream nodes, and publish.
Inputs
The fields this action accepts.
Every field can be mapped from an upstream trigger, AI step, table row, or hard-coded literal.
| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
List ID list_id | string | Required | List ID. Example: 123456789 |
Page page | string | Optional | Page number (starts at 0) |
Include Subtasks subtasks | options | Optional | Include Subtasks. Options: No, Yes |
Filter by Status statuses | string | Optional | Comma-separated status names |
Sample request
{"list_id": "e.g. 123456789","page": "0","subtasks": "{{trigger.subtasks}}","statuses": "e.g. to do, in progress"}
Returns
{"tasks": [{"id": "abc123","name": "Task 1","status": {"status": "to do"},"priority": {"priority": "normal"}}]}
Use these fields in downstream nodes for routing, logging, or error handling.

FAQ
Questions about List Tasks.
What does the List Tasks action do in ClickUp?
Retrieves tasks from a ClickUp list with filters for status, assignee, tags, due date, and custom fields. Used for digests, sprint reviews, or warehouse exports.
What inputs does List Tasks require?
Required: List ID. Every input accepts a static value or a variable from any upstream node in your workflow.
Can I use dynamic inputs from earlier workflow nodes?
Yes. Any field on this action can pull values from upstream nodes, whether that's a form response, a trigger payload, an AI output, or a lookup result.
What happens if ClickUp returns an error?
The workflow pauses on the failed node, the error message is captured in the run log, and you can retry the run with one click. Auto-retry policies are configurable per workflow with exponential backoff up to 5 attempts.
Does List Tasks support batch operations?
Yes. Run List Tasks inside a Loop node to process arrays. Tiny Command handles ClickUp's rate limits automatically so you don't have to throttle manually.
