Why this helps
A useful work brief often requires opening separate views for projects and application activity and stitching the story together.
- Combine project and application usage for one employee and date.
- Use the current user and today's data by default when appropriate.
- Reduce prep time for partner operations discussions.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Adtraction and DeskTime once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation and describe the combined brief you need.
- 3Ask Notis to retrieve DeskTime projects and apps for the employee and date supplied, using defaults only when suitable.
- 4Choose notis_webhook and select where reports should go.
- 5Test with one real example.
Questions about this workflow
Can the action use defaults?
Yes. It defaults to the current user and today, or you can supply a specific employee and date in the request.
Does a combined brief include Adtraction performance?
No. The DeskTime action returns project and app time. Supply partner performance details separately if you want those included.
