Is there an easy way to extract the Custom Fields value from a ClickUp task to be used in a Zap?
I have used the trigger “New Task in Clickup”, but it only gives the option of a comma separated value with ALL the custom fields.
I just need the email adress from a custom field.
I saw the “Create Task” has this functionality now, but this trigger still hasn’t.

Hey there!
The most efficient way to do this is to use a Code by Zapier step to parse out the custom field and pull the data directly from ClickUp’s API.
Trigger: New Task in ClickUp
Action: Code by Zapier
Input Data: Task ID
Code instructions: first use ClickUp’s API to get information about the task from the trigger. Then iterate through the custom fields to output the value of the field with the name “Email Address” (or whatever your custom field is called).
This is an advanced feature and requires a knowledge of JavaScript or Python.
