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

To do this, click "Choose an app," find Gmail or TimeCamp, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Gmail, 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 Gmail and TimeCamp integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Gmail 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 Gmail and TimeCamp
TimeCamp + Google Calendar + Gmail: When a new time entry is created in TimeCamp, a Google Calendar event is created to reflect the time spent. A summary email is then sent via Gmail.
TimeCamp + Gmail + Slack: When a new time entry is created in TimeCamp, the automation checks if the time entry is classified as overtime. If it is overtime, it sends a summary email via Gmail and notifies the manager in a designated Slack channel.
