How do I get started?

Subscribe, enter your API credentials (your generated Hubstaff PAT via **User Settings → Personal access tokens**), and you're set. No code, no environment files, no postbacks — just connect and audit team activity with natural text.

Can my AI check a single associate's daily activities quickly?

Yes! Direct your prompt to fetch all logged daily activities (or activities specifically). The agent will query Hubstaff, breaking down the tracking records and formatting them directly so you won't need to manually click through web portals.

How easy is it to gather organization and project specifics?

It essentially takes seconds explicitly asking 'List my organizations and projects.' The `list_projects` functionality traverses your environment returning the IDs you need to inspect underlying items.

Is the agent suited to handle multiple large organizational hubs at once?

Yes! Due to targeted parameter queries (e.g., retrieving timesheets by target organization), HR firms and agencies scaling hundreds of contractors can extract clean textual aggregations pain-free via simple prompts.
