For Agents
Manage CrewTraka crews and project records - employees, day cards, diary notes, defects, allowances, clients, and companies - and pull weekly CSV summaries. Use it to integrate construction workforce data with payroll, accounting, or BI systems.
Install Jentic One Beta
Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the CrewTraka API, or any other public or private API you need. You set the rules, the agent never sees your credentials, and every call is logged.
Two steps, two machines. Install the instance in a safe environment, then register your agent from wherever it runs.
Step 1: Jentic One Host machine
# On the machine that will host your Jentic One instance:
curl -fsSL "https://jentic.com/install.sh?src=apis&api=%2Fapis%2Fcrewtraka.com%2Fcrewtraka" | shStep 2: Agent machine
# On the machine where your agent runs (keep this separate from the instance):
curl -fsSL "https://jentic.com/install.sh?src=apis&api=%2Fapis%2Fcrewtraka.com%2Fcrewtraka" | sh
jentic register # connects your agent to your Jentic One instanceJentic One is in public beta. The setup above keeps your agent separate from the instance, which is what you want before using real credentials: an agent running as the same OS user as Jentic One can read its stored keys directly. Just evaluating? A single local install is fine to start. See the secure deployment guide for the tiers.
What an agent can do with CrewTraka API.
Create, update, and remove allowance records used to compensate crew members on a project
Capture day cards through /api/daycard for who worked where and on what task each day
Log diary notes against a project to record on-site observations and decisions
GET STARTED
Use for: Create a day card recording which crew worked on which job today, Log a defect discovered on a construction site, List all employees in my CrewTraka company, Add a new client to CrewTraka
Not supported: Does not handle payroll processing, accounting ledgers, or document storage beyond attachments - use for construction crew, day card, and defect management only.
Jentic publishes the only available OpenAPI specification for CrewTraka API, keeping it validated and agent-ready. CrewTraka is a workforce management platform aimed at construction and field-services companies, covering crew scheduling, day cards, diary notes, defects, allowances, and project paperwork. The API exposes the same data model the dashboard uses through a token-authenticated REST interface, including a 7-day summary CSV export that mirrors the weekly view used by site supervisors.
Track defects discovered on site with full CRUD on the /api/defect collection
Maintain client and company records that day cards and projects are linked to
Export the rolling 7-day workforce summary as CSV for payroll or reporting
Patterns agents use CrewTraka API for, with concrete tasks.
★ Daily site reporting from a mobile capture tool
Push day cards, diary notes, and defects from a custom site-capture app into CrewTraka so the dashboard reflects what actually happened on site that day. POST /api/daycard records the crew and tasks, POST /api/diary captures qualitative notes, and POST /api/defect logs anything that needs rework or a follow-up.
On submission of the mobile site report, call POST /api/daycard with the crew and tasks, POST /api/diary with the note, and POST /api/defect for each issue captured.
Payroll export to an accounting system
Feed payroll by exporting the rolling 7-day workforce summary as CSV through GET /api/7-day-summary/export-csv on a schedule, or by paging GET /api/daycard and GET /api/allowance for richer detail. The integration maps employees to their payroll IDs and posts the records into the accounting tool of choice.
Run a weekly job that calls GET /api/7-day-summary/export-csv, parses the CSV, and posts each row as a timesheet entry into the downstream payroll system.
Defect and snag-list management
Maintain a live snag list for each project by listing defects with GET /api/defect, attaching site notes through GET /api/diary, and updating defect status with PUT /api/defect/{id} as items are remediated. The agent or supervisor can then close the loop by deleting the defect once it has been signed off.
Page GET /api/defect filtered by project and status, then PUT /api/defect/{id} with status='resolved' for each item that has been signed off this week.
Agent-driven foreman copilot through Jentic
A foreman can ask a Jentic-orchestrated agent 'log today's day card for crew B on the Smith Street job' and the agent posts the right record without the foreman opening the dashboard. Jentic searches for the day card operation, loads /api/daycard, and executes the create call with the token kept in the vault.
Through Jentic, run search('create a CrewTraka day card'), load POST /api/daycard, and execute it with crew, project, and task fields parsed from the foreman's voice command.
27 endpoints — jentic publishes the only available openapi specification for crewtraka api, keeping it validated and agent-ready.

What agents get from Jentic-routed access to this vendor.
Setup
Wiring CrewTraka by hand means managing its API token in the Authorization header and mapping shift-card, defect, and diary calls across a 27-endpoint construction surface. Through Jentic you install once, import CrewTraka from the API Directory, store the token once, and your agent calls it.
Permission scoping
CrewTraka posts day cards, defects, and diary entries through collection paths and the request body rather than URL resource ids, so scope the agent to the operations it needs, such as creating a day card or reading employees. Exporting the weekly summary stays out unless you include that operation.
Credential isolation
Your CrewTraka token is stored once, encrypted, by your own Jentic One instance and applied as the Authorization header at execution time. It never enters the agent's prompt, logs, or context.
Intent-based discovery
Agents search Jentic by intent such as 'create a CrewTraka day card' or 'export a weekly timesheet', and Jentic returns the matching CrewTraka operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right endpoint without browsing the reference docs.

Specific to using CrewTraka API through Jentic.
Why is there no official OpenAPI spec for CrewTraka API?
CrewTraka publishes a swagger schema at api.dash.crewtraka.com but does not distribute a maintained OpenAPI specification for external consumption. Jentic generates and maintains this spec so that AI agents and developers can call CrewTraka API via structured tooling. It is validated against the live API and kept up to date. Get started with Jentic One, the self-hosted execution layer.
What authentication does the CrewTraka API use?
The API uses a token passed in the Authorization header as an apiKey scheme, typically formatted as 'Token <key>'. Through Jentic, the token is stored encrypted in the vault and applied to every call to https://api.dash.crewtraka.com so it never enters the agent's prompt.
Can I create a day card with the CrewTraka API?
Yes. POST /api/daycard creates a new day card and accepts the crew, project, and task fields. Update one with PUT /api/daycard/{id}, fetch one with GET /api/daycard/{id}, and remove one with DELETE /api/daycard/{id}.
How do I export a weekly timesheet from CrewTraka?
Call GET /api/7-day-summary/export-csv to download the rolling 7-day workforce summary as CSV. The output mirrors the weekly view in the CrewTraka dashboard and is suited for posting into payroll or accounting systems.
What are the rate limits for the CrewTraka API?
The published OpenAPI spec does not declare rate limits. Limits are enforced by the CrewTraka platform per tenant, so check response headers and confirm with your CrewTraka admin. Build retries around HTTP 429 responses, particularly on bulk GET /api/daycard and GET /api/defect pulls.
How do I log a day card through Jentic?
Install Jentic with pip install jentic, then async-search for 'create a CrewTraka day card'. Jentic returns POST /api/daycard with its schema; load it and execute with the crew, project, and task fields. Jentic injects the Authorization token from the vault automatically.
Can I limit what my agent is allowed to do with the CrewTraka API?
Yes. Because you run Jentic One yourself, your own rules decide which CrewTraka operations and credentials the agent may use, so you can grant only the calls it needs, such as creating a day card with POST /api/daycard or reading staff with GET /api/employee, while withholding others. Since CrewTraka posts day cards, defects, and diary entries through collection paths and the request body rather than per-resource URL ids, you scope by operation rather than by record. Higher-impact calls like exporting the weekly summary with GET /api/7-day-summary/export-csv or deleting a defect stay off unless you explicitly include them.
