Overview: Suggestions Feature

The Suggestions feature provides AI-powered time entry recommendations that appear automatically on your calendar. The system collects activity data from your connected services and uses AI to generate suggested time registrations — complete with descriptions, times, and project assignments.

How It Works

  1. You connect your accounts — Sign in to the Time Reg. API and optionally link your Jira account from the User Setup page.
  2. Suggestions are generated automatically — A background job periodically fetches new suggestions based on your recent activity.
  3. Suggestions appear on your calendar — A factbox on the calendar page shows pending suggestions grouped by date.
  4. You accept or decline — Review each suggestion and accept it to create a time registration, or decline to dismiss it.

Data Sources

Suggestions can be built from any combination of:

  • Outlook Calendar — Meetings and calendar events via Microsoft Graph
  • Sent Emails — Email metadata via Microsoft Graph
  • Viewed Jira Issues — Jira issues you viewed during the period
  • Updated Jira Issues — Jira issues with comments or changes during the period

You choose which data sources to use in your User Setup.
