  title: hakuna Time Tracking Absences Timer API
  description: 'The hakuna REST API provides programmatic access to the hakuna time-tracking and personnel-management platform: the running timer, time entries, absences, projects, tasks, clients, users, and account-wide company settings. Personal endpoints act in the context of the authenticated user; management endpoints require an admin token and the organization endpoint requires an organization-level token. All requests and responses are JSON. Generated by the API Evangelist enrichment pipeline from the published API documentation; not an official hakuna machine-readable specification.'
