How to integrate Protime in automation workflow?
3 simple steps to make your Protime connected with other apps in automation workflows on WEXTL. Up to 10 minutes integration set up.
STEP 2
Connect Protime
When prompted, authorize access to Protime in WEXTL once. Protime credentials are encrypted and never shared with WEXTL. Authorization will be reused in any future API calls [3].
WEXTL wants to integrate with your Protime account. Approve?
STEP 3
Build a workflow
Build your workflow with Protime yourself or with WEXTL® AI Builder. Connect Protime to any available integrations [5], or use HTTP node to go beyond them.
Protime
How Protime connects and integrates with WEXTL
Save and approve your credentials once — WEXTL® stores authorization information encrypted and reuses the authentication whenever Protime app is called in workflows. That allows your hr automations to run without your attention, per defined schedule [7]. Explore documentation [6] for a detailed list of fields that Protime supports.
The following table illustrates what fields Protime integration require during authorization flow inside our workflow builder [4].

Connect Protime to popular apps on WEXTL
Enter a name of the other app you want to sync with Protime below. Click on selected app to explore integration options with Protime. If the app you search for is not available in WEXTL yet, you can use HTTP node [10] instead to integrate it directly.
Example automation with Protime integration
Select Watch Absence Definitions trigger from Protime - this will be a starting point in your automation. Whenever event happens in Protime, workflow will start [7] from Watch Absence Definitions node.
Search for Create an Activity Definition, connect it as the next step of integration sequence. You can use filters between Watch Absence Definitions and Create an Activity Definition, so only important data pass from Watch Absence Definitions to the next step. WEXTL gives you full control over the process of Protime automation. All parts of workflow are visible on the canvas [4].
Protime on WEXTL has 125 modules for combining hr automations. Explore Protime documentation for more.
Video slide demonstrates how Watch Absence Definitions and Create an Activity Definition [6] nodes are used in Protime workflow.
Frequently asked questions
Common questions about automating Protime in your workflows.
Protime has 34 triggers, including "Watch Absence Definitions", "Watch Absence Group", and "Watch Absences", and more. Triggers are start points of the workflow, and automations may start from them.
Integration has 91 actions, including "Get a Break", "Get a Break Definition", and "Get a Clocking", and more. Refer to our Protime Documentation for detailed inputs and outputs.
No. Most automations are built visually on the canvas by picking triggers, actions, and mapping fields. You can add custom JavaScript with Functions when advanced logic is needed — but our customers do that in rare cases [4].
Yes. Connections are authenticated per account, credentials are encrypted at rest, and you can enforce approvals and team-level access controls on any automation.
The Protime integration on WEXTL runs directly on its vendor public API — every field name, authentication method, and rate limit is controlled by Protime official API and covered in documentation [3]. WEXTL handles the request signing and pagination for you.
Absolutely. Where Protime provides native webhooks, you can use instant triggers to eliminate polling delay. For custom webhooks, WEXTL offers Custom Webhook node, so you can start automation whenever Protime or any other service sends event to webhook URL.
WEXTL is an AI-first visual canvas. The platform allows you to describe automation in plain text — and AI will wire nodes for Protime inside the workflow builder [4]. You can also use built-in workflow nodes (AI Agent, Human in the Loop, Condition, Aggregate Results) in pair with Protime modules to craft complex integration flows with branches, filtering, and conditional logic. There are absolutely no limits of what you can build.
