TMetric time tracking in ClickUp

Integrating TMetric with ClickUp lets you track time directly from your tasks, review your activity, and manage billing without leaving ClickUp. This guide explains how to connect the apps, use the browser extension, and control what data is shared.

What you need before connecting TMetric to ClickUp

Before you connect TMetric to ClickUp, make sure you have the right accounts and tools ready. This keeps setup smooth and prevents connection errors.

  • An active TMetric account with permission to install the browser extension.
  • A ClickUp Workspace where you can log in and open tasks in your browser.
  • A supported browser: Chrome, Firefox, Edge, or Opera.

Once these requirements are met, you can install the extension and start tracking task time from ClickUp.

Install the TMetric browser extension for ClickUp

The TMetric browser extension adds a dedicated button inside tasks so you can start and stop tracking with a single click. Follow these steps to get the extension installed.

Step 1: Open the TMetric extension page

Use one of the official browser stores to install the extension that integrates with ClickUp:

  • Visit the Chrome Web Store to add the extension to Chrome or compatible browsers.
  • Open the Firefox Add-ons store if you use Mozilla Firefox.
  • Use the Microsoft Edge Add-ons store for Edge.
  • Access the Opera add-ons catalog if you prefer Opera.

Search for the TMetric extension and open its details page.

Step 2: Add the extension to your browser

  1. Click the button to add or install the TMetric extension.
  2. Confirm any browser prompts to complete the installation.
  3. Ensure the TMetric icon is visible in your toolbar so you can access its settings while using ClickUp.

After the extension is installed, you are ready to connect it with your ClickUp account.

Connect the TMetric extension with ClickUp

Once the browser extension is in place, link it to your account so it can interact with your ClickUp Workspace.

Step 1: Sign in to TMetric

  1. Click the TMetric icon in your browser toolbar.
  2. Sign in with your TMetric credentials.
  3. Select the workspace you want to use for time tracking.

Staying signed in to TMetric ensures the timer button in ClickUp works properly.

Step 2: Open ClickUp in your browser

  1. Go to your Workspace and open any Space, Folder, or List.
  2. Click a task to open its details view.
  3. Wait a moment for the TMetric extension to detect the page structure.

After the extension recognizes the interface, a TMetric timer control appears in the task window.

Step 3: Grant authorization for ClickUp

  1. Click the TMetric timer button inside a task for the first time.
  2. Review the permissions that allow TMetric to access task names and links from ClickUp.
  3. Confirm the authorization to finish the integration.

When authorization is complete, the timer is ready to track activity linked to ClickUp tasks.

How to track time on ClickUp tasks with TMetric

After configuration, the extension embeds a timer into the task interface. You can then measure work time in real time while staying focused on ClickUp.

Start and stop the timer in ClickUp

  1. Open any task in your Workspace.
  2. Locate the TMetric control inside the task panel, usually near the task title or action bar.
  3. Click the button to start tracking time.
  4. Work on the task as usual.
  5. Click the button again to stop tracking when you are done.

The recorded time entry is saved in TMetric and is associated with the specific ClickUp task.

Understand what data is synced from ClickUp

Each time you start the timer from a task, TMetric receives key details from ClickUp so that time entries remain meaningful and easy to report on.

  • Task name: Saved as the time entry description in TMetric.
  • Task URL: Used as a reference link so you can quickly return to the original item in ClickUp.
  • Workspace context: Helps you identify which project or list the task came from.

TMetric does not edit your tasks in ClickUp. It only reads necessary task information to label your time entries accurately.

Review time entries from ClickUp inside TMetric

While tracking is done from ClickUp, all time data is stored and managed in TMetric. You can view and refine these entries later.

Check your timesheet

  1. Open TMetric in a new browser tab.
  2. Go to the timesheet or time entries page.
  3. Filter by date or project to find work logged from ClickUp.

Entries created from tasks display their titles and clickable links back to ClickUp.

Edit or categorize time logged from ClickUp

  • Adjust start and end times if you forgot to stop the timer.
  • Assign a project or client if you organize your ClickUp work by billing.
  • Add tags, notes, or labels to clarify what was completed.

These refinements help you generate precise reports without needing to change anything inside ClickUp itself.

Manage the TMetric integration for ClickUp

You can enable or disable the integration at any time from either your browser or TMetric settings while still working in ClickUp.

Temporarily disable the extension in ClickUp

  1. Open your browser extensions page.
  2. Locate the TMetric extension.
  3. Toggle it off to hide the timer buttons in ClickUp.

This can be useful if you are troubleshooting or testing another time tracking tool in your Workspace.

Adjust TMetric workspace settings

  1. In TMetric, open the workspace settings menu.
  2. Review permissions and integrations related to tracking from external tools such as ClickUp.
  3. Update user access, billing rules, or time rounding as needed.

These configuration options shape how time from ClickUp is reported and billed to your clients or internal teams.
