How to connect Slack and TimeCamp
Create a New Scenario to Connect Slack 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 Slack, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, Slack or TimeCamp will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Slack or TimeCamp, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.
Add the Slack Node
Select the Slack node from the app selection panel on the right.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Slack, 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 Slack and TimeCamp integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Slack 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 Slack and TimeCamp
TimeCamp + Google Calendar + Slack: When a new time entry is logged in TimeCamp, an event is automatically created in Google Calendar to block that time, and then a notification is sent to Slack.
TimeCamp + Jira + Slack: When a new time entry is logged in TimeCamp for a specific Jira task, the total time spent on the task is checked. If it exceeds a predefined limit, a notification is sent in Slack, prompting a re-evaluation of task priorities.
