Getting started

  1. Install — get the evaluation version of Time Log from the Visual Studio Marketplace and follow the prompts.
  2. Add your API key — go to Project settings → Extensions → Time Log Admin and set the REST API key for your organisation.
    • Trial API key (shared, for evaluating the extension only): pfcooS75dcpEekjJvdsOvsY0FIJqrsoWicnyY1GQQVby2PVwVl0KBw==
    • For ongoing use, each organisation receives its own private key — keep it secret and do not share it (see Time Log REST API Key).
  3. Set up time types — add the categories you want to track (Development, Meeting, Test, Documentation, Admin, Lost Time, …), per project or across the whole organisation. See Time Log Admin.
  4. Log time — record time on any work item via the Time Log tab.
  5. Review — open Time Log Summary and My Time Log from the menu.
