How to feed read-only data from ClickUp API to Public Website

I'm not an experienced web developer so I'm having some issues connecting some dots with regards to ClickUp API (In my case) but it can be probably be more generalized as well.

I've been doing a bit of research, but can't seem to get exactly what I'm looking for which makes me think I'm missing something.

In my case, the goal is to make certian information on ClickUp publicly VEIWABLE (not writable) and format the html/css ourselves. This would be veiwable to strangers without requiring authentication with ClickUp in any way.

ClickUp provides public links and embedd options:

  • My attempt(JS): postMessage(content, url) and document.getElementById(frameID)
  • Issue: These will fail in browsers that enable that cross-origin protection thing. Forcing strangers to disable this security is not viable for us. I've also tried alloworigin, anyorigin, etc with no luck.

ClickUp API 2.0 for POST, GET, etc

  • Attempt: I wanted to use this unofficial JS wrapper https://www.npmjs.com/package/clickup.js but didn't write anything out yet.
  • Issues: From my understanding, this requires the stranger to authenticate with ClickUp before being able to read information. This would require server-side code.

Other issues: This read-only page is intended to be hosted on github which doesn't support server-side calls (from my understanding) so the solution I'm looking for may not exist.

The most straight-forward way I can think to solve this is the parsing embedded iframe method but the cross-origin problems kills it dead in the water. At this point, I'm stuck and would appreciate any additional feedback.

To formalize my question: What architecture/pieces would I need to connect a front-end web page with private ClickUp information in a read-only fashion that allows front-end HTML/CSS modifications without user authentication? My web development knowledge doesn't really go beyond javascript and maybe a tiny bit of PHP so if there's other tools available for this please let me know and I'll look into them.

Thanks for the time
