Teambridg March Update: Project Integrations and the REST API

Project-Level Time Tracking, Automatically

Since launch, the most common feature request we've received is project-level time tracking. Teams wanted to know not just how their time was spent (in an IDE, in Slack, in meetings) but what it was spent on (Project Alpha, Client X, Sprint 14).

Today, we're shipping integrations with Jira, Asana, and Trello that solve this automatically. Once connected, Teambridg maps activity to active tasks based on contextual signals — the Jira ticket in your browser tab, the Asana project your Figma file is linked to, the Trello board you're referencing in Slack.

The key word is automatic. Nobody has to remember to start and stop timers. Nobody has to reconstruct their week on Friday afternoon for a timesheet. Teambridg figures it out from the work activity and presents it as a clean project-level breakdown in your dashboard.

How Integrations Work

Setting up an integration takes about two minutes:

1. Navigate to Settings > Integrations in your Teambridg admin dashboard
2. Select your project management tool (Jira, Asana, or Trello)
3. Authorize the connection via OAuth
4. Choose which projects or boards to track

Once connected, Teambridg pulls your project structure and maps activity to it in near-real-time. You'll see a new "Projects" tab in your dashboard showing time distribution across projects, with drill-down capability to see per-team and per-person breakdowns.

The integration is read-only on the project management side — Teambridg reads your project structure but never modifies your tickets, tasks, or boards. Your data flows one direction: from the integration into Teambridg analytics.

The Teambridg REST API

For teams that want to go beyond our built-in dashboards, we're launching the Teambridg REST API in public beta. The API gives you programmatic access to all the data in your Teambridg workspace, including:

• Activity data: Time series data for application usage, focus time, and productivity categories
• Team analytics: Aggregated team-level metrics and trends
• Project time: Project-level time breakdowns (when integrations are connected)
• Alert events: Historical Smart Alert triggers

The API uses standard REST conventions with JSON responses, OAuth 2.0 authentication, and rate limiting of 1,000 requests per hour per workspace. Full documentation is available at developers.teambridg.com.

We're already seeing creative uses from beta testers: custom executive dashboards in Tableau, automated weekly report emails, Slack bots that share team focus time summaries, and integration with HR systems for workload balancing.

What's Next

April is going to be a big month. We're working on team comparison dashboards, enhanced reporting, and — based on the news we're all watching about COVID-19 — some new features specifically designed for teams transitioning to remote work. More on that soon.

As always, your feedback drives our roadmap. Keep it coming.
