clickup_create_doc
Create a ClickUp Doc and place it directly inside a Space, Folder, List, or Workspace by specifying a parent type and ID. Avoids the need to create then move.
Instructions
Create a Doc, optionally placed directly in its final location.
Set parent_id + parent_type to create the Doc inside a Space, Folder,
List, the Everything level, or the Workspace root in one call — no
create-then-drag. The parent type maps to ClickUp's numeric enum:
space→4, folder→5, list→6, everything→7, workspace→12. Omit both parent
fields to create the Doc in the default (private) location.
When to Use:
To start a new Doc where it belongs (e.g. a spec Doc inside a project List).
When NOT to Use:
To add a page to an existing Doc — use
clickup_create_page.To change an existing page's text — use
clickup_edit_page.
Returns: A confirmation with the new Doc's name, id, and parent location.
Examples:
params = {"name": "Q3 Spec", "parent_id": "901300", "parent_type": "list"}
params = {"name": "Scratch", "create_page": false}
Error Handling:
400 → bad parent id/type pairing; 404 → parent not found. Errors return an
Error ... string.
