Google Calendar Time Tracking in One Click

How to Use Time Tracking In Google Calendar

Tracking time in Google Calendar. How it works

After you create or open an event in Google Calendar, you will see the TMetric Start timer button as shown in the screenshot below.

Click the button, and the time spent on a calendar event will be logged in your TMetric workspace. Notice that the Start timer button changes to the Stop timer button and displays the time spent on the calendar event. 

The event appears on the Time page in the TMetric web application. The name of the event is the same as in Google Calendar.

Integrating TMetric with Google Calendar

Besides embedding a TMetric timer button to Google Calendar events, you can add events directly to the TMetric web application. So, you can view and track your scheduled events in your workspace. 

To connect TMetric to Google Calendar, do the following:

1. Go to your user profile.

2. In the Calendars section, find Google Calendar.

3. Click Connect, sign in with Google, and allow TMetric to access your account.

4. In the Select Calendars dialog box, enable the calendar you want to display in TMetric and click Continue. 

5. The My Profile page will open where you can see that your calendar is successfully connected. 

Note: If you have never connected a calendar before, then the calendar connection button will be displayed on the Time page. 

Once the calendar is connected, you can see your scheduled events in the Agenda section of the Time page. Just click the Start timer button of the event you want to track time for and the time spent on it will be logged in your TMetric workspace.
