List a member's timesheet entries

fieldtask_list_timesheet_entries

Read-only

Permissions: members:read, timesheets:read
REST equivalent: GET /public/v1/timesheets/entries
Safe retries: Reads only; safe to repeat

fieldtask_list_timesheet_entries lets an AI client list one member's individual timesheet entries over a range of 1–31 days, ordered by start time. Each entry has its start and end time and, where available, the job it was recorded against.

Use it for "what did Alex work on on Tuesday?". For "how many hours", the client should use fieldtask_get_timesheet_range instead.

Same checks and results as REST GET /public/v1/timesheets/entries.

Permissions

Permissions the connection must hold for the tool to appear and run.
Permission	Dependency in the permission map
`members:read`	No dependencies
`timesheets:read`	Depends on `members:read`

Job names on entries also need jobs:read. Without it, every entry's job is null. The tool appears only where FieldTask has enabled timesheet reads.

How the client uses it

FieldTask's tool description tells the client to:

resolve the person with fieldtask_list_members and use their member ID;
follow cursors with the same member, dates and page size;
use fieldtask_get_timesheet_range for worked hours, and not add up paged entries as a total.

Entries keep their full start and end times, even where they extend beyond the range, so adding them up can give a different figure from the report.

Example prompts

You ask	What the client typically does
"What did Alex work on on 2 November?"	Calls `fieldtask_list_members`, then this tool with `start_date` and `end_date` both `2026-11-02`, and lists the jobs.
"Show Alex's time entries this week."	Calls this tool for the week's dates and follows `page.next_cursor` until `page.has_more` is `false`.
"List every entry Alex has this year."	Splits the period into ranges of up to 31 days, and shorter ones if a range has too many entries.

Arguments

fieldtask_list_timesheet_entries arguments
{
  "member_id": "33333333-3333-4333-8333-333333333333",
  "start_date": "2026-11-02",
  "end_date": "2026-11-08",
  "page_size": 50
}

member_id, start_date and end_date are required. The dates follow the same rules as timesheet totals.
page_size is 1–100 and defaults to 25. To keep results within MCP's size limit, a page can hold fewer entries than page_size while page.has_more is still true.
To read the next page, the client passes page.next_cursor back as cursor with every other argument unchanged. Cursors expire within 24 hours.

A range can contain at most 5,000 entries for the member. If it has more, the call fails with report_too_large on every page. A smaller page_size doesn't help; the client must use a shorter range.

Times are in UTC. job is null when the entry has no job, the connection lacks jobs:read, job details aren't published, or the job is no longer available. Entries don't include approval status, pay, location tracking, idle time or edit history. See Which entries are returned.

Tool annotations

Tool annotations your client receives.
Annotation	Value	Meaning
`destructiveHint`	`false`	Never modifies or removes existing records.
`idempotentHint`	`true`	Repeating the same call has no further effect.
`openWorldHint`	`false`	Works only within FieldTask.
`readOnlyHint`	`true`	Only reads data.
