How to Create a Recurring Task in Clickup

Quick summary

Recurring tasks in ClickUp let you automatically reschedule repeating work on a daily, weekly, monthly, or yearly basis. Once configured, ClickUp regenerates the task on your chosen schedule, keeping deadlines consistent without manual effort.

Steps

1. Open a task from your project.
2. In the Dates field above the task description, click 'Empty' to open the date picker modal.
3. From the lower-left of the modal, click 'Set recurring'.
4. Set a start date for the recurring task — it will always recur the same number of days before the due date.
5. Select a date on the calendar or enter it into the 'Due date' field.
6. Choose when the task should recur relative to completion or schedule.
7. Choose your recurrence schedule — repeat every few days, select specific days of the week, select weeks in the month, or select days of the year.
8. Click 'Save' to create your recurring task.
