Project proliferation? Sync your projects from Basecamp!

Here at Noko Support HQ, I often get lots of requests for integrations.

Whenever I get an integration request, I make note of who asked for the integration, and eventually how many times that integration has been requested.

Soooometimes I’ll pad the numbers a bit, if I feel that this integration will help a particular set of customers.

JIRA: 13 requests, Trello: 17 requests, Quickbooks: 18 requests, Basecamp: 19 requests, IFTTT: 1,006,378 requests.

Alright, so maybe “a bit” was a slight understatement. But that’s not the point of this blog post.

The point is that integrations make your life easier and they save you time. And in case you haven’t noticed, we’re all about saving you time.

Everyday we use a number of different products and tools to help us get our work done. If you’re using Noko to track your time, there’s a very good chance that you use Basecamp to manage your projects. If that’s true, then you don’t want to be pulling double duty and entering the same information into both tools. (See what I did there? IFTTT is amazing.)

Now you don’t have to. When you use Noko’s Basecamp integration, your Basecamp projects will automagically appear in Noko. You can even archive projects in Basecamp and they’ll quietly float off to archive-land in Noko.

This works with older Basecamp Classic and with the new Basecamp accounts. So no matter when you started to use Basecamp to manage your projects, you can easily integrate with your Noko account. Here’s how:

STEP ONE

Click Integrations & Imports in the green navigation sidebar.

STEP TWO

Click the Connect to Basecamp… button

STEP THREE

Allow Noko to access your Basecamp account by clicking the green ‘Yes, I’ll allow access button’.

If you’re already logged into Basecamp, Basecamp will ask you for permission to allow Noko to access your Basecamp or Basecamp Classic account. If you’re not already logged in to Basecamp you’ll be asked to log in first.

STEP FOUR

Noko will either connect you to your Basecamp account, or if you have multiple Basecamp accounts, Noko will ask you to choose the account you want to connect to. Syncing happens automatically but you can choose to to manually start a sync (though that probably won’t ever be necessary). Once the syncing is complete, you’ll see what projects were synced to your Noko account.

And that’s it! Easy as pie. Your Basecamp projects will all sync to your Noko account and you can track time to them without having to create a new one.

Now go forth and track thine time!
