New endpoints for Timecards
June 20th, 2025 by Abhay Anumula
Many customers use external HR, payroll, or workforce management platforms for recording the day's punch in times or start times. The clocked in and clocked out entries are critical to manage the work timings of the drivers and allows easy management for the fleet managers or admins.
Earlier, information was retrieved from the external sources onto the Motive platform, and this process depended heavily on the external sources.
With this update, Motive allows creation of new timecard entries on the Motive platform through new public endpoints
These are as follows:
