• Click the ‘Connect’ button and select ‘Add New Connection’.
• Sign in with your Google account to authorize Pabbly Connect.

After authorizing, select the calendar you want to use, such as ‘Family Connect’. Click ‘Save & Test Request’ to fetch data from a recent event. Create a test event in your Google Calendar to ensure everything is working correctly.

3. Creating a TimeCamp Action in Pabbly Connect

Now that the trigger is set, it’s time to create an action in TimeCamp. In the action application section, search for TimeCamp and select it. Choose the action event as ‘Create Time Entry’ to log time entries based on your Google Calendar events. using Pabbly Connect

Click ‘Connect’ and add a new connection by entering your TimeCamp API token. This token can be obtained from the user settings in your TimeCamp application. Navigate to your TimeCamp dashboard, go to ‘Settings’, and then ‘My Profile’ to find and copy your API key.

• Paste the API key twice when prompted in Pabbly Connect.
• Select the project under which the time entry will be created.
• Map the data fields from the Google Calendar event to TimeCamp, including date, duration, and notes.

For example, set the duration to 1800 seconds for a 30-minute task. Map the start time and end time from the Google Calendar data to ensure accurate logging in TimeCamp.

4. Testing the Integration Between Google Calendar and TimeCamp

After mapping all necessary fields, it’s essential to test the integration. Click the ‘Save & Send Test Request’ button in Pabbly Connect to create a time entry in TimeCamp based on the test event created in Google Calendar. using Pabbly Connect

Check your TimeCamp dashboard to verify that the time entry has been created successfully. You should see the entry with the correct details, including the title, date, and duration matching the Google Calendar event.
