  • Problem Solved

    This workflow automates the process of creating a new client in Harvest, eliminating the need for manual data entry. By triggering this workflow, users can quickly add clients to their Harvest account, reducing time spent on administrative tasks and minimizing the risk of errors in client information.

    Workflow Steps

  • Manual Trigger: The workflow starts when the user clicks the 'execute' button. This initiates the process of creating a new client in Harvest.
    2. Harvest Node: After the trigger, the workflow proceeds to the Harvest node where it creates a new client. Users need to provide the client's name and any additional fields required for the client setup.
    3. Completion: Once the client is created, the workflow completes, allowing the user to confirm the addition of the new client in their Harvest account.
  • Customization Guide

  • Client Name: Users can customize the 'name' parameter in the Harvest node to specify the client's name they wish to add.
    - Additional Fields: Users can include other relevant details such as email, phone number, and address in the 'additionalFields' section to enhance client information.
    - Credentials: Ensure that the 'harvestApi' credentials are correctly set up to allow the workflow to access the Harvest API securely.
    - Node Positioning: Users can adjust the positioning of the nodes in the workflow for better visualization and organization, though this does not affect functionality.
