How to configure Clockify extension in ADManager Plus

Identity ProvisioningProject Management

Integrating Clockify with ADManager Plus brings identity-aware automation to your time-tracking workflows. Clockify is a widely used platform for tracking work hours, managing projects, and reporting productivity across teams. By linking Clockify with Active Directory through ADManager Plus, organizations can automatically sync user accounts, roles, and access rights based on authoritative identity data in AD.

When employees are onboarded, moved across teams, or offboarded, ADManager Plus can create, update, or disable their Clockify accounts accordingly. This helps ensure that only current, appropriately authorized users can track time and view project data.

 

Automated user life cycle management

Provision, update, or disable Clockify accounts automatically based on AD changes.

 

Access aligned with roles

Ensure users only access Clockify with appropriate rights tied to their position and group membership.

 

Reduced admin effort and risk

Eliminate manual account actions, cut down stale access, and tighten identity governance for time tracking.

Note: ADManager Plus comes with a preconfigured set of APIs that helps perform basic actions with the integration. If the action you require is not available, please gather the necessary API details from Clockify API documentation to configure the inbound or outbound webhooks to perform the required actions.

  • Under Inbound Webhook, click Clockify Endpoint Configuration.
  • In the Endpoint Configuration tab, an endpoint, Clockify- List Workers ENDPOINT and List Users ENDPOINT and List Groups ENDPOINT comes preconfigured with an Endpoint URL, API Method, Headers, and Parameters fields to fetch user accounts from Clockify.
  • To use this preconfigured endpoint, replace {WorkspaceID} with your Workspace ID for workspace-specific user operations. However, if you would like to use a new endpoint to import users, you can configure one using the + Add API endpoint button and filling in the required fields as per Clockify's API references. Click here to learn how.Note:
    • The API key value pair is preconfigured as a header for authenticating API requests as configured during Authorization Configuration.
    • You can add macros to your endpoint configuration to dynamically change it as per your requirement using the macro chooser component.
    • Refer to Clockify's API references and configure additional headers and parameters, if required.
  • Once done, click Test and Save. A response window will display all the requested parameters that can be fetched using the API call. Click Proceed.Note:
    • Refer to Clockify's API references to learn the Parameters that must be configured to fetch only specific parameters.
    • You can configure multiple endpoints for Clockify using the + Add API endpoint button. Click here to learn how.
  • Click Data Source - LDAP Attribute Mapping to match endpoints and to map AD LDAP attributes with the respective attributes in Clockify. Note: ADManager Plus also lets you customize attribute formats from Clockify.
  • Click + Add New Configuration and perform the following:
    • Enter the Configuration Name and Description and select the Automation Category from the drop-down menu.
    • In the Select Endpoint field, select the desired endpoint and a Primary Key that is unique to a user (for example, employeeIdentifier ). Note: When multiple endpoints are configured, this attribute must hold the same value in all the endpoints.
    • In the Attribute Mapping field, select the attribute from the LDAP Attribute Name drop-down menu and map it with the respective column in Clockify.
    • If you would like to create a new custom format for this, click Mapping Attribute.
    • Click Save.
Note: The attribute mapping configured in this section can be selected as the data source during automation configuration to perform the desired action on the list of users received from the API response.

Outbound webhook configuration

Outbound webhook enables you to update the changes made in AD using ADManager Plus to Clockify or fetch and forward required details from Clockify and synchronize them with AD. To configure an outbound webhook for Clockify:

  • Under Outbound Webhook, click Clockify Webhook Configuration.
  • Click + Add Webhook.
  • Enter a name and description for this webhook.
  • Decide on the action that has to be performed and refer to Clockify's API references for the API details, such as the URL, headers, parameters, and other requirements that will be needed.
  • Select the HTTP method that will enable you to perform the desired action on the endpoint from the drop-down menu.
  • Enter the endpoint URL.
  • Configure the Headers, Parameters, and Message Type in the appropriate format based on the API call that you would like to perform.
  • Click Test and Save.
  • A pop-up window will then display a list of AD users and groups to test the configured API call. Select the desired user or group for which this API request has to be tested and click OK. This will make a real-time call to the endpoint URL, and the selected objects will be modified as per the configuration.
  • The webhook response and request details will then be displayed. Verify them for the expected API behavior and click Save.
Note: The webhooks configured in this section can be included in Orchestration Templates, which can be used in event-driven and scheduled automations. They can also be applied directly to desired users to perform a sequence of actions on them (under Management > Advanced Management > Orchestration).
