1. Get your RescueTime account name:
![]() |
| Setting account name and profile visibility |
- Login to RescueTime
- Go to "Profile / Edit" page
- Set your account name, or copy the existing one to clipboard
- Set your profile visibility to "Visible"
- Don't close RescueTime window
- Paste account name to RescueTime authentication form on 9facts (open it in a new window)
2. Create a new RescueTime Data API Key:
![]() |
| Creating a new Data API key |
- Go to "Setup Data API" page on RescueTime
- Create a new key there (see the screenshot for details)
- Go to "Key Management" page
- Expand a new key entry here
- Copy the value of "Full key" to clipboard
- Switch back to 9facts window again
- Paste the key to RescueTime authentication form on 9facts
- Click "Save".
3. Verify your RescueTime account name (unfortunately, it's impossible to do this via RescueTime API):
![]() |
| Verifying your account |
- Copy the verification key provided by 9facts to clipboard (it is bold)
- Don't close 9facts window
- Go to "Profile / Edit" page on RescueTime
- Paste it to "Role" field (see the screenshot)
- Go back to 9facts window
- Click "Verify". Your RescueTime identity must be verified at this point. If it isn't, please contact us.
- Go to "Profile / Edit" page on RescueTime
- Set your "Role" back to the original (or any desirable) value.
That's it. A lot of steps, but this should be done just once.
