Close the timer when creative work is done
Let a completion handoff close out the DeskTime timer so finished production work does not keep running in the background.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Stop Project Task
Stop tracking time on a project or task.
Why this helps
A timer left running after the last export can make time records harder to trust.
- Close the tracked task from a completion handoff.
- Reduce forgotten timers after asset delivery.
- Keep the end of a work session easier to review.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Abyssale and DeskTime once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation and describe stopping the relevant DeskTime project task when an asset is reported complete.
- 3Choose the webhook trigger and send an HTTP request from the external completion workflow.
- 4Choose where run reports should go and test with one completed asset.
Questions about this workflow
Does this stop a specific project task?
The DeskTime action stops a specified project and optional task. The completion request needs to identify the work to stop.
Can this run directly from an Abyssale event?
No Abyssale trigger events are listed. Use an external system to send a webhook when it detects completion.
