Clockify Api - get hours for each user for the last 24 hours

Question

Hi I was wondering if you could help me.

What would be the right endpoint to get a report for hours logged for each user in a given workspace the past 24 hours? The API doesn't make it clear which report to use and what values to supply in a post request to get this result.

Excuse me if I seem a little naive about the capabilities, I have been asked to look at this without prior knowledge of the API and I'm just trying to get me head around it.

Clockify just seem to have shut down their old api (I was using). The report API is documented here: https://clockify.me/developers-api#tag-Reports

And this works quite well. For your case, the requests could look like:

curl --request POST \
  --url https://reports.api.clockify.me/v1/workspaces/<YOUR WORKSPACE>/reports/summary \
  --header 'content-type: application/json' \
  --header 'x-api-key: <YOUR API KEY>' \
  --data '{
  "dateRangeStart": "2020-08-13T00:00:00.000Z",
  "dateRangeEnd": "2020-08-13T23:59:59.000Z",
    "summaryFilter": {"groups": ["USER"]},
    "exportType": "JSON"
}'

There is no "last 24h" though, you will have to adjust the dates yourself.

What might be interesting for your case:

• This example just returns all durations by user. If you want all time entries explicitely, add TIMEENTRY as summary group:

    "groups": ["USER", "TIMEENTRY"]

• You can also export it to a different format: JSON, CSV, XLSX, PDF are supported.
