                        "*": "== Overview ==\n=== Getting Started ===\n* First you'll need to authenticate the device you are using.\n* Even though each TimeMD account has a unique \"Access URL\" (or \"Client URL\"). You'll use our dedicated API URL for all calls to the server. In this case the URL is \u2018login.timemd.com\u2019.\n=== What You Should Know First ===\n* TimeMD.com uses a REST interface for our API. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Representational_State_Transfer REST] is a simple format that allows you to make queries by constructing a URI containing variables and values and submitting to our API web page. The server responds with [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XML XML] or [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JSON JSON] output containing the information that you requested.\n* Each API request is composed of two parts. An action and variables for that action. Additionally, all API calls (with the exception of register_device) require an api_key parameter that proves you are logged in. Normally you won't have to worry about this though, since our PHP class handles authentication for you.\n* All API output is returned in JSON format unless you add the output_format=xml option to your requests. All API requests will include a status field with a value of either \u2018ok\u2019 or \u2018fail\u2019. If the status is 'ok' there will also be a field named \u2018message\u2019 with more details. If the status is 'fail' there will also be an element named 'message' with more details.\n* We recommend using HTTPS for all API requests to our Access URL\n* GET vs. POST. Our API reads your actions and parameters from both GET and POST data. While examples below show parameters being posted via GET, it will work equally well if some (or all) of the parameters are passed as POST data.\n\n== API Actions ==\nTo register a device, your first login with a company's primary account login. You must pass the action \u2018regiser_device\u2019, and you must include the company's username and password:\n\nIn return you will get the accounts API Key. You must include the given key for all subsequent API calls related to that device (i.e. clock_out, clock_in, etc.) See \"Authentication\" section below for more information regarding the action, \"register_device\".\n\n<pre>\n<result>\n <status>ok</status>\n <message>The device has been successfully registered</message>\n <api_key>28150_1536687004</api_key>\n</result>\n</pre>\n\nWhen you receive a status of 'fail' from any API action, you'll also be given a message. For example:\n\n<pre>\n<result>\n   <status>fail</status>\n   <message>Login credentials not recognized</message>\n</result>\n</pre>\n\nWhen you receive a status of 'followup' from any API action, you'll also be given a message to display to the user. For example:\n\n<pre>\n<result>\n   <status>followup</status>\n   <message>Where you injured on the job today?</message>\n</result>\n</pre>\n\n==  Authentication ==\n=== Registering A Device ===\nThis is required before any subsequent API actions can be placed. Upon successful authentication, you will receive the accounts API Key. This should be saved on the device.\n\n<b>Action</b>\n* register_device\n\n<b>Parameters</b>\n{| border=\"1\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"2\"\n|-\n!scope=\"col\"| Parameter\n!scope=\"col\"| Required\n!scope=\"col\"| Description\n|-\n!scope=\"row\"| username\n| Yes\n| The username of the account to be registered.\n|-\n!scope=\"row\"| password\n| Yes\n| The password of the account to be registered.\n|}\n\n<b>Output</b>\n* The ''status'' field will either be 'ok' or 'fail'. On 'fail' a ''message'' field will explain why. On 'ok', the action will also return the API Key which is required for all subsequent action calls.\n\n== Tracking Time ==\n=== Clocking In ===\nUsually called ''Clocking-in', ''punching the clock'' or ''starting a timer'', this call lets you start tracking time for a user.\n\n<b>Action</b>\n* clock_in\n\n<b>Parameters</b>\n{| border=\"1\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"2\"\n|-\n!scope=\"col\"| Parameter\n!scope=\"col\"| Required\n!scope=\"col\"| Description\n|-\n!scope=\"row\"| api_key\n| Yes\n| See Register a Device section for details.\n|-\n!scope=\"row\"| user_idx\n| Yes\n| The TimeMD assigned ID of the user you would like to click in with.\n|-\n!scope=\"row\"| dept_idx\n| Maybe\n| The TimeMD assigned ID of the department the user is to be clocked in under.
