How to Route Typeform to ClickUp Request Intake?

Capture internal requests with a Typeform and turn them into ClickUp tasks in the right list. Great for teams that need a simple intake form and clear routing to the correct owner. People fill one form and work lands where it belongs without manual sorting.

Here is how it runs. When a Typeform response arrives, n8n listens and reads the answers. A Switch checks the question What type of a request are you making and chooses one of four paths. Each path sets a different ClickUp ListID so document, presentation, update, or workflow requests go to separate lists. The task name comes from the short title field. The task body includes the long description and the requester name. Team, space, and folder are fixed, and only the list changes for routing, so your tasks stay in the same area while still being organized.

To set it up, match your Typeform question labels to the node fields or update the expressions. Connect Typeform and ClickUp using OAuth in n8n, pick your form, and paste your ClickUp list IDs. Expect less triage time and faster starts for new work. This fits intake desks, creative services, and operations teams that want clean routing with no extra steps.

What are the key features?

  • Typeform trigger listens for new form responses and starts the flow instantly.
  • Switch node reads the request type and routes to one of four paths.
  • Set nodes assign the correct ClickUp ListID for each request type.
  • ClickUp node creates a task with a dynamic title and a detailed body that includes the requester name.
  • Fixed team, space, and folder keep tasks in one area while lists handle routing.
  • OAuth2 credentials secure both Typeform and ClickUp connections.

What are the benefits?

  • Reduce manual triage from 30 minutes to 2 minutes
  • Route 100% of requests to the correct ClickUp list
  • Connect Typeform and ClickUp without copy paste
  • Handle four request types automatically with clear paths
  • Improve data quality by 90% using structured form fields

How do you set it up?

  1. Import the template into n8n: Create a new workflow in n8n > Click the three dots menu > Select 'Import from File' > Choose the downloaded JSON file.
  2. You'll need accounts with Typeform and ClickUp. See the Tools Required section above for links to create accounts with these services.
  3. In the n8n editor, double click the Typeform Trigger node. In the Credential to connect with dropdown, click Create new credential and follow the on screen steps to sign in to Typeform with OAuth.
  4. In the Typeform Trigger node, select your form. Use Test or Listen for test event, then submit a sample response in Typeform to register the webhook and pull sample data.
  5. Open the ClickUp node. In the Credential to connect with dropdown, click Create new credential and follow the on screen steps to sign in to ClickUp with OAuth and choose the correct team.
  6. Confirm or replace the team, space, and folder values in the ClickUp node to match your workspace. Use your own IDs if different.
  7. Edit the four Set nodes and replace the ListID values with your actual ClickUp list IDs. You can copy a list ID from the ClickUp list URL.
  8. Open the Switch node and make sure the rule values match your Typeform answer text for the question What type of a request are you making. Update the text if your form uses different labels.
  9. Check the expressions in the ClickUp node for task name and description. If your form uses different question labels, update them so the title, details, and requester name map correctly.
  10. Activate the workflow. Submit test responses for each request type and confirm a task appears in the correct ClickUp list with the right title and details.
  11. If no task appears, make sure the workflow is active, the Typeform Trigger shows a registered webhook, and both credentials are connected. If tasks go to the wrong list, check Switch rule text and ListID values.
  12. To add a new request type later, add a new rule in the Switch node, create a new Set node with its ListID, and connect it to the ClickUp node.
