Timesheets

Create a contractor timesheet

Creates a timesheet on behalf of a contractor employment.

The timesheet is created as an open draft, matching a timesheet the contractor creates themselves: the contractor can still edit the hours, and the customer approves them through the contractor's invoice rather than the timesheet. Contractor timesheets can't be submitted or approved through the API.

The hours are immediately available to the contractor in the Remote UI for self-serve invoice creation (Invoices → Create invoice → "Use Time Tracking").

This endpoint is restricted to contractor employments. Calls against EOR or Global Payroll employments are rejected with 422.

Authentication

This endpoint accepts any one of the following token types:

  • Company-scoped access token (OAuth2AuthorizationCode) — obtained by a company manager through the Authorization Code flow or the Refresh Token flow. See Authentication for partners.
  • Company-scoped access token (assertion) (OAuth2CompanyManagerAssertion) — obtained through the urn:ietf:params:oauth:grant-type:jwt-bearer grant for a company manager. See OAuth Assertion.
  • Customer API token (CustomerAPIToken) — generated by the customer on their Integration Settings page, with the scopes they choose there. See Authorization for customers.

Scopes

Any one of the scopes in a token type's row is enough. all:write works too.
