API Access to Project Financial Settings / Custom Hourly Rates for Projects
The API v4 has no ability to retrieve a project-specific custom hourly rates, which is highly hindering the ability to create proper reporting. Getting the default hourly rates for a user is possible, but that is pretty pointless if you customize them for a specific project.
I'm talking about this, as seen in the UI:
https://help.wrike.com/hc/en-us/articles/1500005226622-Custom-Hourly-Rates-for-Projects#UUID-bbba4435-b7c1-dfd3-c916-2ab339a91105_specify
the `folders/{folderId}` endpoint should be enhanced to add these.
https://developers.wrike.com/api/v4/folders-projects/
Currently it accepts
fields = ["briefDescription", "customColumnIds",
"attachmentCount", "contractType", "finance"]
but none of which include that information. For eg, the return is
'finance': {'currency': 'US Dollar', 'budget': 26000.0}
Please add another one in fields, `customHourlyRates` and have it return something like
{'id': 'IEAEdFDDI42FQ63U',
'accountId': 'FFDFHJKFDHK',
'title': 'My Title',
[... truncated ...]
'metadata': [],
'customFields': [],
'customColumnIds': [],
'project': {'authorId': 'XXXXX
[... truncated ... ]
'contractType': 'Billable',
'finance': {'currency': 'US Dollar', 'budget': 26000.0}
# NEW!
'customHourlyRates': [{'userId': 'XXXXXX', 'billRate': 200.0, 'costRate': 175.0}]
}}
Thanks for the suggestion Julien Marrec and welcome to the Community 🙂

Elaine is there any update on this subject? Can we expect to have the custom hourly rates through the API?

As this post is now two years old, you should at least fix your documentation to prevent people from wasting time trying to figure out how to access a documented parameter you have no plans to implement.

Is there any update to this topic? This should be something VERY simple to be able to give access to... why has it taken so long? This is required to validate project financials for most of us, how is this not a high-priority request?
