Practical ways you can use Clockify and Slack

Notify team about new time entries.

Keep everyone in the loop on billing and work time. When a new time entry is added in Clockify, Zapier triggers a notification in Slack to a chosen channel, keeping the team informed without the need for manual updates or status meetings.

Business Owner

Try it

Track task time via Slack updates.

Monitor support task efficiency by automating time tracking. Each time a new task update is posted to a specific Slack channel, Zapier creates a corresponding time entry in Clockify with the details, ensuring accurate task tracking and reducing administrative workload.

Customer Support Ops

Try it

Start Clockify timers from Slack messages.

Eliminate manual time tracking by using Slack to trigger time tracking in Clockify. When a predefined keyword is mentioned in a specific Slack channel—such as starting a timer for a task—Zapier starts a new time entry in Clockify. This reduces time-tracking errors and improves efficiency, especially across fast-moving IT teams.
