Timelog in API

Hi, 

I would like to use Wrike API to pull the time log entries for the employees. However I would need the "Folder" in the response. Based on the "Folder" I can decide which internal task / project an emmployee has worked on and I can create timesheet accordingly. 

When I checked the API for timelog, I could not see the "folder" in the reponse. Is there any alternate?

P.S. The report extracted from Wrike web interface has the folder column included.

 

Any help please?

Hi Aravind! That's a good question, thank you. We indeed do not provide any folder-related parameter in the response to [GET] /timelogs.

The way to get the corresponding folder via API would be using QueryTasks method first (to grab the parent folder IDs for the task with Timelog, from 'parentIds' https://www.screencast.com/t/oWHgwh8ZKB), then Get Folder method to see a folder name.

Basically, you would need to make a combined dataset in this case, where API data from /tasks endpoint would have connection with the data from /folders.Once you get the list of Timelogs, you should be able to understand what folder they belong to, by looking up the 'taskId' parameter in your task-folder database.

I hope my explanations were not confusing, please feel free to follow up with your questions!
