Task ID is Null

[peter-gb]

Hey Keshia,

Sill loving this and using it every week! I noticed that the Task ID has become null, any ideas?

Thanks, Peter

Hey Peter, 🙂

Unfortunately, it looks like Toggl has completely changed its API in the latest version which makes updating this more than trivial. I already spent maybe an hour going through and trying to figure it out (after already spending time refactoring the code a bit 😥). They no longer provide everything in one request, so you need to pull in projects, clients, tasks, and tags separately. While this complicates things quite a bit, it wouldn't be so bad. However, then I realized they added CORS restrictions that will prevent this WDC from running purely in the front end as it does today. This means I would have to find somewhere to host a back end which would likely mean paying money to do so. Therefore, after trying a bunch of things, I don't think it would be feasible for me to make such major updates to this WDC. (I don't even use Toggl anymore). Toggl has a lot of integrations available, way more than when I first made this. Perhaps there is something available that you can use to pull this data in? Sorry that this is the response, I truly tried to make this work.

Ahhh Keshia I’m so sorry you had to spend so much time on it! I’d hoped it was a fairly simple thing but an innocuous ‘null ID’ can turn into such a nightmare! Thanks so much for your efforts anyway, I hope this continues to work as I love using toggl! Still appreciate you developing this. I ought to learn how to do such things myself! All the best anyhow and thanks for the great efforts in making this in the first place!
