Overview

his workflow automates time tracking using location-based triggers.

How it works

  • Trigger: It starts when you enter or exit a specified location, triggering a shortcut on your iPhone.
  • Webhook: The shortcut sends a request to a webhook in n8n.
  • Check-In/Check-Out: The webhook receives the request and records the time and whether it was a "Check-In" or "Check-Out" event.
  • Google Sheets: This data is then logged into a Google Sheet, creating a record of your work hours.

Set up steps

  1. Google Drive: Connect your Google Drive account.
  2. Google Sheets: Connect your Google Sheets account.
  3. Webhook: Set up a webhook node in n8n.
  4. iPhone Shortcuts: Create two shortcuts on your iPhone, one for "Check-In" and one for "Check-Out."
  5. Configure Shortcuts: Configure each shortcut to send a request to the webhook with the appropriate "Direction" header.

It's easy to setup, around 5 minutes.
