When I Work

When I Work is an employee scheduling and workforce management platform serving over 200,000 workplaces in industries such as restaurants, retail, healthcare, and hospitality. The platform provides a REST API that enables developers and integration partners to manage shifts, schedules, users, time clock records, attendance, and team communication programmatically. API access is restricted to the Premium plan tier, which also includes webhook support and SAML/SSO capabilities. Authentication follows a token-based model where a private developer key and user credentials are exchanged for a bearer token used in subsequent requests. When I Work also publishes webhooks for real-time event notifications, making it suitable for building payroll, HR, and operations integrations.
