What it does

You get compliant Awork time tracking automatically because this agent monitors your tasks for missing start times or short durations and reopens them to fix the gaps. It also rounds all entry lengths to 15-minute billing intervals so your records match your invoicing rules without manual cleanup.

How it works

When it runs: Triggered by an event · Event · on task status change or new time entry via webhook
How hands-off: Assists you, you do the final step
Setup: An afternoon · about an afternoon
Works with: Awork, HTTP Request, Code

HTTP Request : Interacting with Awork API for webhooks and data updates

Watch out for

Webhook retries may cause duplicate processing, so add idempotency checks using unique event IDs to prevent double updates.
Timezone mismatches between Awork and your server can skew duration calculations, so always normalize timestamps to UTC before validation.
Awork API rate limits might block bulk update requests during peak hours, so implement exponential backoff for failed HTTP calls.
Deleting time entries without logging the action can confuse auditors, so ensure every deletion is recorded in a separate compliance log table.
