Basecamp is an essential component of many organization's project management process - it's been an absolute game changer for keeping team members on the same page. With that in mind, we've made it easier than ever to stay on top of those activities completed in Basecamp.

How it works

When integrated, these activities from Basecamp will automatically display on your timeline within Timely:

  • When you mark a ToDo as completed

  • When you submit a comment on a given board/topic

  • When you add a new message to a board *this is specific to the “Message” widget that can be added to boards

  • When you answer a question posed by a “Check-in” widget *this is specific to the "Check-in" widget that can be added boards

Basecamp memories reflect the activities completed in the tool along with the time they were captured - they aren't meant to capture time spent in Basecamp. For that helpful context, you'd want to make sure you have our companion Memory app installed on your device. The integrations and Memory work in concert to ensure a complete view of your day is captured!
