Automated Work Attendance with Location Triggers
Key Features and Highlights
This workflow leverages iPhone Shortcuts in conjunction with Webhooks to enable automated clock-in and clock-out based on geographic location. The system automatically detects whether a corresponding Google Sheets document exists; if not, it creates one and accurately logs the user’s check-in or check-out times into Google Sheets. This achieves fully automated, paperless attendance management.
Core Problems Addressed
Traditional attendance methods rely on manual clock-ins or dedicated devices, which often lead to missed punches and cumbersome data entry. This workflow resolves issues related to untimely attendance data collection and management difficulties by using location triggers and automation, thereby enhancing accuracy and efficiency in attendance tracking.
Use Cases
- Remote workers or freelancers who need precise work time tracking
- Enterprises aiming to simplify attendance processes and reduce manual intervention
- On-site employees clocking in/out automatically via their smartphones without additional hardware
- Scenarios requiring automatic recording of entry and exit times based on geographic location
Main Process Steps
- The user initiates a “Check-In” or “Check-Out” command via iPhone Shortcuts, triggering a Webhook request that includes direction information (start or end of work).
- The workflow receives the Webhook request and checks Google Drive for a Google Sheets document named “WorkTimeTracking.”
- If the spreadsheet does not exist, it automatically creates the Google Sheets document and the corresponding worksheet.
- A log entry is generated containing the current date, time, and punch direction (check-in or check-out).
- The log is appended to the “Worklog” worksheet within Google Sheets, enabling automatic attendance data recording.
Involved Systems and Services
