ClickUp Update & Changelog - 29.08.2025

This article series presents what’s new in ClickUp before ClickUp itself announces it. If you want to stay up to date with the latest in ClickUp, every week we prepare a roundup of the most important updates for you.

What’s new this week?

Option to set a country code as default for phone numbers
Creating task dependencies through automation
Cards in chat

1. Option to set a country code as default for phone numbers

This has been an issue we’ve struggled with for a long time, as ClickUp would default phone numbers in forms to the US format. This change has finally fixed it.

However, by default it won’t be visible — you need to manually edit the phone field and change the “Default value” to a Polish phone number.

2. Creating task dependencies through automation

Another new feature is a new option in automations. When creating a task or subtask via automation, you can now automatically connect it with another task through a relationship.

It is possible to:

set a connection between the created task and the task that triggered the automation
set the new task to wait until the triggering task is completed
set the new task to block the task that triggered the automation

Unfortunately, it is not possible to select any arbitrary task — for that you need a separate “add relationship” automation. Dynamic selection is also not possible.

3. Cards in chat

The last new feature is the ability to add cards, like the ones we have in dashboards, to the new ClickUp chat. They appear in a miniature format as shown above, and when hovered over, details are displayed.
