Export attachment through API

Daniel Urbano
I need an option to download attachments from any location (Space, folder, list, task) so that I can send it to a particular location outside of ClickUp. This would be through the API so I can directly integrate with any other repository App or cloud.

Actually you can do this. Using the Get Task from the API. The answer is a JSON from what you can get the attachment URL and use it to download the attachment. Then you can upload somewhere else.

This would be a very useful feature as it will allow to automate some documentation management processes and use ClickUp as a documentation database.

Update: this actually possible right now, but only accesible by ClickUp through its private API. Not available through the public API.

Daniel Urbano: Does this means that we cannot use this feature with some automation software? (Make or Zapier for example)
D

Alberto Alonso: haven't try that. I just can use this from the public API.

Hey Daniel! I'm assuming you are looking for direct URLs and filenames, maybe type?

Ivan Villa: Hi Ivan,
I'm looking for an option to download the file and being able to upload it in some other specific location outside ClickUp.
I have a client that needs to export documents that are at a specific location (Could be a task, list, folder, or space) and upload them in a repository cloud app. Depending on the location it comes from (ClickUp), they will upload it into another specific location (Client's cloud App).
