Trello Time Tracking in One Click

How to Use Time Tracking In Trello

1. Find timer button on a Trello card

Click a required card from a list on your board. A dialog window opens where you can view and edit the contents of the card. In the Actions menu, you can see the TMetric Start timer button.

2. Start timer on a card

Click the Start timer button and TMetric will start recording your Trello working time. Notice that the Start timer button changes to the Stop timer button and displays the time spent on the card.

If you are the workspace owner or assigned admin in TMetric and start the timer for the first time, TMetric pulls out from Trello and adds to your TMetric workspace:

• card name
• card ID
• project name
• tags

The Trello tags are mapped to the tags existing in the TMetric workspace. If the Allow creating tags on a fly option is enabled in the TMetric workspace, then the tags are automatically created.

The corresponding time entry appears on the Time page in the TMetric web app. You can easily navigate back to the Trello card simply by clicking the card ID (in our case ID is #1).

3. Edit time entry, if necessary

A time entry with an external task can be edited. You can edit the name of the task, change a project and tags without losing a link to the Trello issue.

To disassociate the TMetric task from the Trello card, click the cross icon next to the task name in the bottom right corner of the time entry editor.

4. View a time report

Reports show the time from different external systems, as well as the time entered manually in TMetric. 

TMetric is a great time tracking app for Windows, macOS, and Linux that allows you to control your time and stay productive throughout the day. TMetric mobile app for Android or iOS is the most convenient way to track your time whether in the office or away at customer meetings.
