Quickstart

This guide walks you through creating an API key, making your first API call, and logging a time entry.

1. Get an API key

1. Open the WhoWorked app.
2. Go to Settings → API Keys.
3. Click Create API Key and give it a descriptive name.
4. Copy the key — you won't see it again.

2. Make your first request

List your projects:

curl https://api.whoworked.com/v1/projects \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"

3. Create a time entry

curl -X POST https://api.whoworked.com/v1/entries \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "description": "Working on docs",
    "project_id": "prj_..."
  }'

Omit stopped_at to start a running timer. Call the stop endpoint when you're done.
