How to connect ConvertAPI and TimeCamp
Create a New Scenario to Connect ConvertAPI and TimeCamp
In the workspace, click the “Create New Scenario” button.

Add the First Step
Add the first node – a trigger that will initiate the scenario when it receives the required event. Triggers can be scheduled, called by a ConvertAPI, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, ConvertAPI or TimeCamp will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find ConvertAPI or TimeCamp, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

Add the ConvertAPI Node
Select the ConvertAPI node from the app selection panel on the right.

Configure the ConvertAPI
Click on the ConvertAPI node to configure it. You can modify the ConvertAPI URL and choose between DEV and PROD versions. You can also copy it for use in further automations.
Add the TimeCamp Node
Next, click the plus (+) icon on the ConvertAPI node, select TimeCamp from the list of available apps, and choose the action you need from the list of nodes within TimeCamp.

Set Up the ConvertAPI and TimeCamp Integration
Use various Latenode nodes to transform data and enhance your integration:
- Branching: Create multiple branches within the scenario to handle complex logic.
- Merging: Combine different node branches into one, passing data through it.
- Plug n Play Nodes: Use nodes that don’t require account credentials.
- Ask AI: Use the GPT-powered option to add AI capabilities to any node.
- Wait: Set waiting times, either for intervals or until specific dates.
- Sub-scenarios (Nodules): Create sub-scenarios that are encapsulated in a single node.
- Iteration: Process arrays of data when needed.
- Code: Write custom code or ask our AI assistant to do it for you.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring ConvertAPI, TimeCamp, and any additional nodes, don’t forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy." Activating the scenario ensures it will run automatically whenever the trigger node receives input or a condition is met. By default, all newly created scenarios are deactivated.
Test the Scenario
Run the scenario by clicking “Run once” and triggering an event to check if the ConvertAPI and TimeCamp integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between ConvertAPI and TimeCamp (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect ConvertAPI and TimeCamp
ConvertAPI + TimeCamp + Google Sheets: When a file conversion is completed in ConvertAPI, a time entry is automatically created in TimeCamp to track the time spent on the conversion. The details of the conversion and the time entry are then logged in a Google Sheet for project costing and reporting.
TimeCamp + ConvertAPI + Slack: When a new time entry is created in TimeCamp, if the billable time for that entry exceeds a defined threshold, a report detailing the time entry is automatically converted to a PDF using ConvertAPI. This PDF report is then sent to a manager via Slack for review.
