Check DeskTime before your scheduled browser workflow
Know whether DeskTime responds before relying on it for a tracking workflow.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Ping DeskTime API
Check whether the service is available.
Why this helps
A browser process can finish successfully while the time-tracking step is unavailable and easy to overlook.
- Check DeskTime API responsiveness on a schedule.
- Surface availability in a run report.
- Spot a dependency issue before a tracking workflow relies on it.

- 3Pick a recurring schedule as the trigger.

- 5Test once and confirm the DeskTime ping result appears in the report.
Questions about this workflow
Does a successful ping guarantee every DeskTime action will work?
No. The ping checks API availability and responsiveness; it does not guarantee that later actions or credentials will succeed.
Can this workflow also perform a browser task?
Yes. Describe the Airtop browser step in the instruction. The DeskTime action in this workflow is the API ping.
