Overview

The Authentication page is divided into 3 areas:

  1. App authorization: Update your password, sign in using a Microsoft Account, a Google Account and/or an Apple Account, or revoke access to those accounts.

  2. Calendars: Sync your Microsoft Calendar and/or Google Calendar with your account to automatically sync your calendar events with TrackingTime.

  3. App Passwords: Add custom passwords for your integrations using third party applications.

Update your password

If needed, change your password to log into your account.

How to set up a new password for your account:

  1. Click on the Change Password button.

  2. Write your new password.

  3. Repeat it on the field below.

  4. Save the changes.

📝 Passwords are personal and part of the user's account settings, meaning that, workspace admins will not be able to modify an employee's password.

Sign in with your third-party accounts

Access your account with other third-parties, including Microsoft Account, Google Account and Apple Account.

How to sign in with a third party account:

  1. Click on the Sign in type of your preference.

  2. Accept giving your permission to connect with your accounts.

Revoke access to your third-party accounts

If you no longer want to have the chance to access the account using one of your third-party accounts, you can simply revoke these accesses from the Authentification section.

Connect your calendars

Integrate your account with Google and Microsoft Calendars to automatically include all of your events in TrackingTime, such as meetings, calls and presentations.

💡 Find out more about connecting your calendars on our Google Calendar and Microsoft Calendar Integration guide.

Set up an App Password

In case you'd like to use our Public API, instead of using your current password, we can provide you with a bearer token. This is secure since all requests use SSL, and you can implement it to start working with our API.

How to add an App Password:

  1. Click on + Add Password.

  2. Write a name to identify the application where you'll be using this password.

  3. Click on Save.

Copy the generated password by clicking on the link icon, or make it viewable by clicking on the eye icon.

💡 If you have different integrations, you can set up one password for each of them.

Authenticate your API requests

Once you have created an App Password, you can use it to authenticate API requests using Basic Auth. To do so, please use the constant string "API_TOKEN" as the username and your App Password as the password.
