Why Notion Alone Isn’t Enough 

Notion is a very good tool if you want to manage projects and automate manual tasks. It even comes with ready-made time-tracking templates you can use to track time in Notion and maximize productivity. Even though you can build a tasks database for your tasks in Notion (with a linked database view) and manage everything inside the projects database, Notion doesn’t offer any built-in robust time-tracking setup. The only thing you can do is manually update a status property or log time yourself, but that solution is ineffective and prone to errors and inconsistencies.

If you want to have access to all the relevant data, including the big picture of how your time is spent, you probably need a dedicated time-tracking tool. And this is where our role begins. With just a few clicks, you can connect TimeCamp to your Notion workspace and benefit from in-depth time tracking for your team.

TimeCamp offers a fully automated time tracker that can be integrated with your Notion account. And since TimeCamp works with unlimited users (even tens of thousands of them), you can benefit from this integration no matter how large your team is. Also, our time-tracking app works both on desktop and mobile devices, so you can track time on every Notion task no matter where you are located.

How TimeCamp Works With Notion

TimeCamp’s integration with Notion allows for automatic time tracking within the workflows you already have set up in Notion. Once the integration is enabled, it applies to the entire account, allowing all users to track time on imported tasks. Each Notion database becomes a task within the main Notion project in TimeCamp, and every item inside that database is imported as a subtask. You can set additional parent–child relationships in the integration settings, but the overall structure imported from Notion stays the same in TimeCamp.

All TimeCamp users are initially assigned as Regular users to the Notion project, and you can later adjust their roles or limit them to specific tasks. If you enable the export option, TimeCamp will automatically send tracked time back to a selected property in your Notion database. New items created in Notion sync to TimeCamp automatically within one hour (or instantly when using the Force synchronization option). Additionally, you can also use TimeCamp’s browser plugin that lets you track time directly on the Notion website.

TimeCamp provides you with accurate time-tracking data that's fully aligned with your activities in Notion. Thanks to that, you can:

  • Analyze minutes spent on Notion tasks and projects
  • Generate customizable time reports
  • Draw conclusions from the total time tracked in Notion and other third-party tools
  • Share accurate project estimates and quotes with your clients
  • Fully automate time tracking in your company

Here are the additional elements you can configure:

Import items based on status properties:

Select statuses for items that should be imported from Notion to your TimeCamp account. Items that are not synced won't appear on the list of active tasks.

Create parent-child relation:

Instead of a standard structure where databases with their items are imported separately as tasks under the Notion project, here you can define where the database should be located. This way, you can locate items from the Tasks database under the items from the Projects database.

Export time:

It is possible to export tracked time only to properties of type "number". So if you added a number type property in Notion, you can select it from the list to export your tracked time to that property.
