Turn confirmed work records into Dart time entries
Record supported work time against its task when the available context includes a clear task and valid timestamps.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Add Task Time Tracking
Tool to add a time tracking entry to a DART task. Use when you need to record time spent on a specific task. The finishedAt timestamp must be after startedAt.
Why this helps
Time entries are easy to forget when work details are scattered across conversation and records.
- Reduce forgotten time entries for documented work.
- Keep time associated with the task it supported.
- Skip entries when the required information is missing.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Ably and Dart once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3Tell Notis to add a Dart time entry only when the available Ably context identifies a task and provides start and finish timestamps, with finish after start.
- 4Choose a recurring schedule and where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real record containing valid timestamps and a known task.
Questions about this workflow
Can it calculate time from a message with no timestamps?
No. The time tracking action requires start and finish timestamps, and the finish time must be later.
What happens if the task or timestamps are unclear?
The instruction should have Notis skip the entry and report what information is missing.
