Start tracking an Agility CMS work session in DeskTime
Start the timer from the moment you begin focused content work, without a second trip to your time tracker.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Start Project Task
Start tracking time on a project or task, stopping any previous tracking.
Why this helps
It is easy to forget to start tracking when the first minutes of a content session are spent switching between tools.
- Start DeskTime tracking from a session-start signal sent as an HTTP request.
- Use the project and optional task supplied in the request context.
- Reduce the chance of leaving the beginning of a work session untracked.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Agility CMS and DeskTime once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and describe the session-start outcome in one instruction.
- 3Tell Notis to start the DeskTime project task identified by the incoming work-session context.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger, choose where run reports go, and test with one real session example.
Questions about this workflow
Does Agility CMS provide the session-start event?
No source trigger event is available here. Configure a system that knows the session has begun to send an HTTP request to the Notis webhook.
What details are needed to start tracking?
The workflow needs enough context to identify the DeskTime project and, if applicable, the task. The webhook action does not provide a project discovery screen.
