Hi guys, more than 3 years for request as simple and basic as that one? It's really important!

Hey team!
Exactly the feature I'm also looking for!
We highly rely on ClickUp to manage the entire company tasks workflows, we're starting to integrate tools to make live easier for other departments.
Our expected use case rely on search by either Title or Description so we can easily find and link tasks to other In-Site integrations tools and have everything tracked. (We don't want to work it around with custom fields as Title and Description are quite Important fields for the Tasks).
Hopefully this feature gets attention team,
Thanks and cheers up! :)

Is this coming any time soon?

It is a bit mind boggling that this is still not available. I can understand that you simply do not want to make such a feature public due to the impact it could have on your services usage, but at least make it clear so that we know the solution we will have to come up with won't be a temporary one.

Khiman Louër: if optimized and cached, wouldn't the impact be less than all the work-arounds people are currently doing?

Important to search by task name. Can't really integrate without being able to adress specific tasks. I can search in custom_fields, but why do I get an error when searching in a native field??? This would take off lots of pains... I know need to setup a custom field that I can search for.
Ezequiel Garrido
It's a real pain having to program or integrate to an intermediate system just because we can't filter tasks accurately natively.
I understand there might be a business decision involved here, but I urge you to rethink this.

this is really what i am looking for. when can this be implemeting? Not only in the task name, but also else where. i know you can do search in custom field but not at the predefined field.

Would be nice to have an end-point, but you (or your developers) can still write code with the existing API to do this. Just loop through the "name" (i.e. Title) or "description" keys of the response JSON and use RegEx to search within their values for your keyword.
You can then process those tasks within the loop, or append the task IDs to an array to process separately. This should work for any field whose value is a string, including custom fields.

A. B.: I'm pretty sure the reason this is still not available is not about them needing help to implement this lol
