Trigger#

New Task on TimeCamp

Description:Emit new event on each created task.

Version:0.0.3

Key:timecamp-new-task

View on GitHub

TimeCamp Overview#

TimeCamp's API unlocks the potential to automate and integrate time tracking data with a myriad of services and platforms. By leveraging Pipedream's capabilities, you can create custom workflows that respond to events in TimeCamp, such as new time entries, projects, or tasks. These workflows can then trigger actions in other apps, or even process and analyze time tracking data to provide insights and streamline operations.

Trigger Code#

import timecamp from "../../timecamp.app.mjs";
import { DEFAULT_POLLING_SOURCE_TIMER_INTERVAL } from "@pipedream/platform";

export default {
  name: "New Task",

        summary: `New task with id ${data.task_id}`,
        ts: Date.parse(data.add_date),
      });
    },
    async emitAllTasks() {
      const tasks = await this.timecamp.getTasks({});
