Time entries

A time entry records hours logged by a user against a project’s task. Unbilled entries are the raw material for invoices. For fields and response details, see the API reference.

--task-id is a task’s record ID. Get it from projects show, or see Getting the task ID.

List time entries

List a project’s unbilled time entries. The result is paginated, so the command accepts --page and --page-size and reports a pagination object in the envelope with total_records, total_pages, current_page_number, and page_size. See Pagination.

neetoinvoice time-entries list \
  --client 7c1f5e2a9b \
  --project 89d1b47d9f36af3c9ecf \
  --start-date 2026-07-01 \
  --end-date 2026-07-31

Flag	Type	Required	Default	Description
`--client`	`string`	Yes		Client identifier
`--end-date`	`string`	No		Filter entries recorded on or before this date (YYYY-MM-DD)
`--page`	`int`	No	unset	Page number
`--page-size`	`int`	No	unset	Items per page (max 100)
`--project`	`string`	Yes		Project identifier
`--start-date`	`string`	No		Filter entries recorded on or after this date (YYYY-MM-DD)
`--task-id`	`string`	No		Filter to a single task’s entries by task ID
`--user-email`	`string`	No		Filter to a single user’s entries by email

Pass --task-id to narrow the result to one task, which is how you read the hours logged against a single task without filtering the whole project by hand. Task IDs come from projects show.

Create a time entry

Log time against a task. --user-email is the organization user the hours belong to, which is not necessarily the signed-in user.

neetoinvoice time-entries create \
  --client 7c1f5e2a9b \
  --project 89d1b47d9f36af3c9ecf \
  --task-id 24e6a2fe-31bb-686c-541a-9f36af3c9ecf \
  --user-email oliver@example.com \
  --recorded-on 2026-07-14 \
  --hours 2.5 \
  --notes "Reviewed the new dashboard layout"

Flag	Type	Required	Default	Description
`--client`	`string`	Yes		Client identifier
`--hours`	`float64`	No	`0`	Hours spent (omit for no-hours projects)
`--is-override`	`bool`	No	`false`	Override autolock for a locked date
`--notes`	`string`	No		Notes
`--project`	`string`	Yes		Project identifier
`--recorded-on`	`string`	Yes		Date the time was recorded (YYYY-MM-DD)
`--task-id`	`string`	Yes		Task ID
`--user-email`	`string`	Yes		Email of the organization user logging the time

Pass --is-override to log against a date that autolock has already closed. Your role must permit overriding autolock.

Update a time entry

Change an entry’s hours, notes, or date, or move it to another task on the same project with --task-id. Only the flags you pass are changed.
