Connect Clockify and Redmine to automatically track project time without manual entry
Sync time logs from Clockify directly into Redmine tasks to eliminate double work and keep your project data accurate.
Overview
Summary
Connecting Clockify and Redmine unlocks seamless time tracking across your development and project management workflows. Whether you're a project manager, developer, or freelancer, this integration ensures every hour logged in Clockify automatically populates the right Redmine ticket—no copy-pasting, no errors. As part of broader Clockify integrations, this connection is one of the most powerful ways teams reduce administrative overhead and gain real-time visibility into where time is actually spent.
Why integrate Clockify with Redmine?
Benefits
Manual time entry between Clockify and Redmine is not just tedious—it’s error-prone. Teams lose hours each week reconciling timesheets, chasing missing entries, or correcting misassigned hours. By automating this sync, you eliminate these bottlenecks. Project managers gain accurate burn-down charts, developers get credit for time spent without interrupting their flow, and finance teams receive clean data for client billing. The result? Faster reporting, happier teams, and more trustworthy project forecasts.
Use cases that actually matter
Real-world
Client billing accuracy
Automatically map Clockify time entries to Redmine issue IDs so client invoices reflect exact hours logged per task—no more guessing or disputes.
Team productivity reports
Use Redmine integrations to generate weekly reports showing which Redmine projects consumed the most time, helping prioritize backlog items based on actual effort.
Time-to-resolution analytics
Combine Clockify data with Redmine ticket statuses to measure how long bugs or features take to resolve—ideal for improving sprint planning and estimating future work.
💡 Pro Tip: Use custom tags in Clockify (like “client-billing” or “internal-dev”) to filter which time entries sync to Redmine—this keeps your project logs clean and focused.
Step-by-step setup
No code
Workflow
Start by connecting your Clockify and Redmine accounts using Clockify Time Doctor integrations, then select “New Time Entry” as your trigger.
Map Clockify task names or tags to Redmine issue IDs or project categories, and choose which fields (duration, description, date) should sync.
Turn on the automation, test it with a sample time entry, then expand it to auto-assign time to new Redmine tickets as they’re created.
Advanced automation ideas
Set up conditional workflows that only sync time entries over 15 minutes to Redmine, or trigger notifications in Slack when a ticket exceeds its estimated hours. You can even layer in Google Sheets to archive weekly summaries or connect with email tools to auto-send client time reports.

FAQs
Helpful
Do I need technical skills to set this up?
Nope—this integration is built for non-developers. You don’t need to write code or touch APIs. Just follow the drag-and-drop builder in Appy Pie Automate, and if you’ve ever used Google Sheets Redmine integrations, you’ll find this process just as intuitive.
Can I customize which fields sync between Clockify and Redmine?
Absolutely. You can choose exactly which Clockify fields (like project name, task description, tags, or duration) map to Redmine fields (issue ID, notes, start/end time). You can also add filters—like syncing only entries tagged “billable” or from specific teams.
What happens if a time entry fails to sync?
Appy Pie Automate logs every run and alerts you if a sync fails—like if a Redmine ticket ID no longer exists. You can review failed attempts, fix the issue, and retry with one click. Automated retries also help recover from temporary API issues.
Is my data secure when syncing between Clockify and Redmine?
Yes. All data transfers are encrypted end-to-end, and we never store your login credentials. Appy Pie Automate is GDPR and SOC 2 compliant, and you control exactly what data flows between your apps—no third-party access.
