Then click the Add to doc for free button in the upper right.
That's it - the Wrike Pack is now installed. To start putting it to use, check out the following section.

Create a two-way sync table of Wrike tasks
Coda’s two-way sync for Pack tables allows you to sync tasks from Wrike into Coda and then update those tasks directly from your doc. Changes you make in Coda will automatically be reflected in Wrike, adding convenience and ensuring your data stays in-sync.
To set up a two-way sync table for Wrike tasks, follow these steps:
First ensure you’ve installed the Wrike Pack in your doc
Then click on Insert in the upper right corner of your doc
Click on the Packs tab
Under Installed Packs, find and select Wrike
From the list of building blocks, expand the Tasks option.
If you haven’t yet connected your Wrike account, you’ll see a Connect to Wrike button. Click this and follow the prompts to authenticate your account.
Then you’ll see a list of all Tasks tables that you have access to in Wrike. Select the table you want to add, and drag it onto the canvas of your doc. It may take a moment for the table content to load.
Once loaded, head to the table settings in the right-hand panel. To turn on two-way sync, toggle on the Allow two-way edits option.
If you prefer for edits in Coda to be sent immediately to Wrike, also toggle on the Send edits immediately option. Otherwise, edits in Coda will only be pushed to Wrike when someone clicks the Send edits button or when the next table refresh occurs. Learn more about two-way sync settings here.
Make any other necessary adjustments to the table settings, such as changing the refresh rate (manual, daily, or hourly).
That’s it! You have now successfully created a two-way sync table of your Wrike tasks. When edits are made to the sync table in Coda, those edits will be reflected in Wrike.
Create Wrike tasks with the click of a button
You can add new tasks to Wrike from your Coda doc with just the click of a button. To do so, we recommend adding the Add task button from the Wrike Pack to an existing table. While you can also opt to create a button on the canvas rather than a button column button, this example uses a table and button column setup.
To add the Add task button to a table, just click and drag the Add task button from the list of Pack building blocks onto the desired table. Alternatively, you can click the Add column button in the upper right corner of the table, select Button as the column type, scroll to the Packs options, find Wrike in the list of tasks, and select Add task.
Then just complete the button setup as needed. For more details, check out this example. You can even copy that doc and take a closer look at the Create Task button column to see how it’s set up.

How should I configure my Pack settings? What are private vs shared accounts?
How should I configure my Pack settings? What are private vs shared accounts?
Check out this article for more details on this topic, but here’s a quick breakdown:
Private account
A private account is one that only you - the person setting up that account - can use to take actions from the Coda doc.
This is the most secure setting, but since it’s private, you can’t use it to display syncs or Wrike info in the doc.
Shared account
A shared account is required to display Wrike data - such as a Tasks sync table - in a doc.
Setting a shared account to “Take actions and view data” will mean that anyone who has edit access to the doc will be able to act as this account when taking actions from Coda to Wrike.
How do I change the settings of a sync table from the Wrike Pack?
How do I change the settings of a sync table from the Wrike Pack?
To adjust the settings of a sync table, click on the down arrow next to the Refresh button, and select Settings.
Here you can change the refresh rate of the table (manual, daily, hourly), turn on/off two-way sync (for Tasks table only), adjust which Wrike account is used to sync in the data, and even choose to sync in additional properties from Wrike via the Sync more properties button.
Under the Advanced tab, you can adjust the table row limit, what to do with newly-added columns in Wrike, and how to handle un-synced rows.
