Automate Wrike

Know where your Wrike work stands without digging through folders: get your tasks due today in Slack, hear when a project task goes overdue or changes status, see who owns the late work each Monday, and get a message the moment a task is assigned to you. Put it to your AI assistant in your own words, check the plan, and it continues on schedule from there.

Try asking

Create a ClickRuntime automation: every weekday at 9am send me a Slack message with my active Wrike tasks that are due today or overdue, with due dates and links.

Paste it into your assistant. It tells you what it will send or change before it runs live.

Build your own

Build any Wrike automation you can describe

The ideas above are ready-made starting points, not a fixed list. Describe what Wrike should do in your own words, with your conditions, other apps or an AI step, and your assistant writes it, tests it and runs it on ClickRuntime.
  • Your own rules

    Conditions, thresholds, filters and exceptions, written the way you'd explain them to a colleague.

  • Any number of apps

    One automation can read from one app and update several others. Over 248 apps are ready, and anything with an API works too.

  • AI where it helps

    Summaries, classification, extraction and drafts use ClickRuntime's built-in AI, with no extra key.

  • On a schedule or on each event

    Runs as often as every 5 minutes, or the moment an app sends an event, and keeps track of what it already handled.

For example, ask your assistant

Every morning, find Wrike tasks past their due date that are still Active and comment asking the assignee for a new date.

When a Wrike task is marked Completed, post the task title and assignee in #projects on Slack.

Every Monday, add open Wrike tasks per project to my Projects sheet in Google Sheets and email each project lead their overdue list through Gmail.

Beyond chat

Have Wrike work when you're not in the chat

Connecting Wrike to ChatGPT or Claude lets you ask about it while you chat. ClickRuntime handles the part that should happen on its own: checks on a schedule and actions on each new event, set up from the same chat and running after you close it.

Setup

Connect Wrike

Wrike connects with a permanent access token that you create in the Wrike App Console. ClickRuntime sends it as a bearer token to your account's data center.

Wrike

Project management

  1. In Wrike, open Apps & Integrations, then API, to reach the App Console.
  2. Create an app, or open an existing one, and choose Get token.
  3. Re-enter your Wrike password when asked, then copy the token, which is shown only once.
  4. In the ClickRuntime dashboard, save the token as a secret on Connections & secrets, and note whether your Wrike URL is on the US or EU host.

Good to know

Wrike limits that affect automations

  • The permanent token doesn't expire, but Wrike revokes it if you reset your password or your user is deactivated. Create a new one and update the secret if that happens.
  • Wrike accounts live in different data centers. The API host must match the one in your Wrike URL, otherwise requests fail with 401.
  • The token acts as you, so automations see the folders and projects you can see.

FAQ

Questions about automating Wrike

What can ClickRuntime see in Wrike?
The tasks, folders and projects your Wrike user can access, since the token acts as you. The ready automations only read tasks; they don't edit or create anything.
Which alerts are instant?
Status changes and new assignments use Wrike webhooks, so the message goes out as soon as Wrike reports the change. The overdue check runs hourly and the digests run on a schedule.
My Wrike account is on the EU data center. Does that matter?
Yes. Use the host from your Wrike address, such as app-eu.wrike.com. Calls to the wrong host are refused with a 401 error.
Will my token stop working?
Not on its own. It stays valid until you reset your Wrike password or your user is deactivated, which revokes it.
Do these automations need AI?
No, they filter tasks by date, status and assignee. AI is included in every ClickRuntime plan for when you want summaries, so there's no AI key to add.
Is this a Wrike connector for ChatGPT or Claude?
Not for chatting with Wrike data. A chat connector lets your assistant read and change Wrike while you're in the conversation. ClickRuntime is for the work that should happen without you: you set up an automation from the chat once, and it keeps running on a schedule or on each Wrike event.
