Plugin Description
As avid users of Freshbooks web-based accounting software, we are always looking for ways to integrate our project tracking and accounting in fun and useful ways. This plugin creates a simple sidebar widget that outputs the total hours billed for a FreshBooks account.
Note: You will need the API URL and API token for your FreshBooks account, see http://developers.freshbooks.com/
Your FreshBooks API URL has a single point of entry, derived from your account URL:
https://sample.freshbooks.com/api/2.1/xml-in
After enabling API access for your account, you’ll be given a unique authentication token. The admin user, and each staff member, has an API token. The admin user’s authentication token can be found on the “enable FreshBooks API” page. The staff token can be found on each staff member’s Profile page, or on the Edit Staff page (for admin only). At this time, staff members have limited access to the API (see the individual method pages for details).
Please note your authentication token is based on your account password. If your password changes, so will your authentication token.
To use this widget, install the plugin and then in the widgets setup admin area drag the “Freshbooks Widget” to a sidebar. Input your Title, API URL, and API token. Note, using the Freshbooks Admin API token will return the number hours billed by the Admin user and all the Staff accounts associated with the Admin account (the entire team), whereas inputing a Staff token will output the hours billed by that staff user only.
