Project files end up scattered when tasks live in ClickUp and documents live in Google Drive. FlowMattic links the two from your WordPress site: new tasks and lists get their own Drive folders, the right people get access when assignments change, and files added to a Drive folder become ClickUp tasks. It suits agencies and small teams that run client work from both.

Each one uses only triggers and actions the two integrations ship today, plus FlowMattic's own tools. Where the library has a ready-made template, import it instead of building from scratch.
Ready-made templateEvery task gets a folder named after it, and the folder link goes back on the task as a comment, so nobody asks where the files for a job should go.

View the template Agencies that open a ClickUp list per client get a main Drive folder with Briefs, Assets and Deliverables sub folders, set up the same way every time.

When an assignee is added, FlowMattic finds the task's folder by name and shares it with that person's email, so freelancers get access without a separate request.

A Filter waits for the Approved status, then the working document is found, exported to PDF and linked in a task comment, ready to send to the client.

Deleting a task should not delete the client's files. The matching folder is renamed with an Archived prefix, so it stays findable and clearly out of use.

Tasks tagged for content get an AI Agent brief with an outline and key questions, saved as a Drive file and linked on the task before the writer starts.

Drop a draft, contract or brief into a review folder, and New File in Folder creates a ClickUp task with the file name and link, so nothing sits unread in a shared folder.
New File in FolderCreate Task
When you finish, every new ClickUp task has its own Google Drive folder, linked in a comment on the task.
Add ClickUp and Google Drive under Connects in FlowMattic, using a Drive account that owns or can edit the parent folder.
Start a workflow with the ClickUp Task Created trigger, pick the workspace and create a test task so FlowMattic captures its data.
Add a Google Drive step with Create a Folder, choose the parent folder and name the new one with the task name and task ID.
Add Post Task Comment, map the task ID and put the new folder's link in the comment text, then test and switch the workflow on.

A trigger starts a workflow. An action is something FlowMattic does in the app as a step.
Google Drive and ClickUp connect through FlowMattic on your own site, with no separate automation account in the middle and no charge per run.
Every folder is created from a task and points back to it, so the link between work and documents does not depend on someone remembering.
FlowMattic runs each workflow on your own server with unlimited runs, so a month with hundreds of new tasks costs the same as a slow one.
Sharing happens when someone is assigned, which means contractors see a client's files when they need them, not before.
Yes. Start with New File in Folder, choose the folder to watch and add Create Task, with the file name as the task name and the file link in the description.
Yes. After Create a Folder, add one Create a Sub Folder step per sub folder you want, such as Drafts and Final, using the new folder's ID as the parent.
By name. Include the task ID when the folder is created, then search for that ID with Find Folder in later workflows such as sharing or archiving.
