Redmine — connecting

Server address, login and password — connecting Redmine

The Redmine connector shows tasks from your projects and lets you comment, change status, log time (worklog) and attach files.

How to connect

  1. In the app: Settings → Organizations → organization → Integrations → "+" → Redmine (or choose Redmine at the first sign-in).
  2. Enter the server address — the URL of your Redmine, for example https://redmine.example.com.
  3. Enter the login and password of your Redmine account.
  4. Tap Connect — the tasks will appear in the list.

The "Tasks" block on the "My stats" screen

Redmine is the only tracker for which the app shows a block with tasks on the "My stats" screen: assigned to me, closed, watching, overdue, created by me. The app requests the counters directly from Redmine. For other trackers this block is hidden — their API does not provide cheap counters filtered by the current user.

Auto-pause

Redmine is the only tracker where auto-pause works: if the app detects no movement during a GPS session for the set time, the server automatically pauses the session and sends a note about the pause to Redmine. When movement resumes, the session continues and a note about the resumption is added to the task.

Error 422 "Issue is invalid"

If sending time returns 422, this is not an app failure but a refusal by Redmine itself.

  • Cause. The Time tracking module is not enabled in Redmine for the task's project.
  • Fix. Redmine administrator: Project → Settings → Modules → check "Time tracking". Then send again.
  • What the app does. An entry with error 422 is not retried in a loop — Taskloc shows the reason and keeps the time saved in Taskloc.

What is not supported

  • Redmine wiki, forums, documents (tasks only).
  • Redmine 3.x and below (4.x+ is recommended).

Troubleshooting

  • The task list is empty — check that your Redmine account has permission to view tasks in the projects you need.
  • Connection error — make sure the server address is reachable from the device and starts with https://.
  • Time is not logged — enable the "Time tracking" module in the Redmine project settings (see above).
