The Scenario
You're a freelance web developer and you have 18 active client projects in TimeCamp — each with its own budget, assigned team members, and billing schedule. Once a month you need all of that in one workbook to compare estimated spend against actual, build an invoice summary, and figure out which projects are running over before you send anything to a client.
The bad version:
- Export a CSV from TimeCamp's projects screen, open it, and spend ten minutes deleting the fourteen columns you don't need and renaming the ones you do
- Manually add a column for assigned users because the export puts them in a single merged cell and your workbook wants one row per project
- Repeat the whole thing next month, because there's no saved format and no memory of what you did last time
Every time you open that exported CSV and see the column arrangement, you remember that this is going to take longer than it looks. The budget review was supposed to take thirty minutes. The cleanup takes forty-five.
The Easy Way: One Prompt in SheetXAI
SheetXAI is an AI agent that lives inside your Excel workbook. It reads whatever you're looking at and talks to TimeCamp directly through its built-in integration — no CSV, no reformatting, no template.
Pull all my TimeCamp projects into this worksheet with columns for task_id, name, budget, start date, end date, and assigned users — one row per project, active projects only
What You Get
- Each active TimeCamp project lands on its own row, with columns populated in the order you named them
- task_id, name, budget, start date, and end date fill in from TimeCamp's API response directly
- Assigned users appear in a single column, comma-separated — one row per project
- Projects marked as archived in TimeCamp are excluded automatically
What If the Data Is Not Quite Ready
The budgets are in a different currency than what you bill in
Pull all active TimeCamp projects into this worksheet, convert the budget column from USD to EUR using an exchange rate I'll put in cell B1, and label the new column "Budget (EUR)"
Some projects are missing start dates
Fetch all active TimeCamp projects and add them to the Projects sheet — for any project with no start date in TimeCamp, write "Not set" in the Start Date column instead of leaving it blank
You need to join the project list against a second sheet that maps task_id to client name
Pull all active TimeCamp projects into columns A through F on this worksheet, then look up each task_id against the ClientMap sheet (which has task_id in column A and client name in column B) and add the client name as column G
You want a full cleanup-and-report in one pass
Get all active TimeCamp projects, paste them into the Projects sheet starting at row 2, convert budgets to EUR using the rate in cell B1, look up client names from the ClientMap sheet, add a Budget Status column that says "Missing" where budget is zero, and sort the result by client name A–Z
One prompt. The cleanup, the enrichment, and the sort — handled together.
