Clockify ACTION

Update Time Entry

Updates an existing time entry in Clockify — change its start/end time, project, task, description, billable status, or tags. Clockify's update endpoint replaces the entire entry, so this action first fetches the current entry and merges your changes into it before saving — fields you don't set are left unchanged. Use List Time Entries to find the ID of the entry to update. See the documentation

IMPLEMENTATION

Call this tool

Connect a user's Clockify account once, then configure and run Update Time Entry from your backend or agent.

import { PipedreamClient } from "@pipedream/sdk"

const pd = new PipedreamClient({
  projectId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_PROJECT_ID!,
  clientId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_ID!,
  clientSecret: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_SECRET!,
  projectEnvironment: "production",
})

const result = await pd.actions.run({
  id: "clockify-update-time-entry",
  externalUserId: "{external_user_id}", // any stable ID for this user in your system
  configuredProps: {
    clockify: { authProvisionId: "apn_xxxxxxx" },
    workspaceId: "Workspace",
    timeEntryId: "Time Entry ID",
  },
})

console.log(result)
