The Harvest to Clockify Migrator is a free addon that lets you import your Harvest account history directly into your Clockify workspace. 

Note

This feature is available on all Clockify plans, including the Free plan. 

Install the Harvest addon

You can migrate your data using the Harvest addon in two different methods depending on your preference:

  • Harvest API: The main path that securely connects your Harvest account directly to Clockify using an access token.
  • Harvest CSV exports: An alternative method where you manually upload your Harvest export files directly into the system.

Both options are available within the Harvest addon.

Install addon #

  1. Go to marketplace.cake.com
  2. Look for Harvest to Clockify Migrator
  3. Click Install from the sidebar
  4. Select your workspace
  5. Tick the box to agree to the Privacy policy

You should now see the addon on your Clockify sidebar and by going to Workspace settings > Integrations & addons.

A single email match is preselected for you automatically, but you will need to manually confirm any team members matched by name only.

Import data using CSV files #

You can generate a detailed CSV report from Harvest and import it into Clockify.

13. Click Close migration when everything looks good on the import summary table

Tip

You must upload the detailed time report to use this method, but the expenses, clients, and contacts files are optional.

Supported data types #

To help you prepare your workspace, here is a breakdown of what moves over during the migration and what stays behind.
