Give both times or neither: with both, they must be on quarter hours and the hours are worked out from them; with neither, an entry that has times keeps its start and its end moves to match the hours (rounded up to a quarter). Fails with 409 if it has been invoiced, its week is locked by approval, the times overlap another entry that day, or a timer is running and times are given. The hours of a running entry can’t be changed.

object
The day the time was worked, as yyyy-MM-dd.
Hours worked, as a decimal: 1.5 is an hour and a half.
The time of day the work started, as HH:mm:ss. Give both times or neither; with both, they must be on quarter hours and the hours are worked out from them. With neither, a timed entry keeps its start and moves its end to match the hours, rounded up to a quarter.
The time of day the work ended, as HH:mm:ss. Must be after the start time.

Section titled “Responses”OK
Shorthand for the overwhelmingly common ServiceResponse<TData, ErrorResponse>.
C# cannot alias an open generic, so this is expressed as a subclass rather than a using alias.
object
True when the call succeeded and TData? ServiceResponse<TData, TError>.Data is populated.
Payload on success; default on failure.
object
The day the time was worked, as yyyy-MM-dd.
Hours worked, as a decimal: 1.5 is an hour and a half.
The time of day the work started, if recorded.
The time of day the work ended, if recorded.
When the running timer started, counted back from its start time. Empty when no timer is running.
Whether a timer is running on the entry.
True once the entry is on a sent invoice, or its week is approved, and it can’t be changed.
Whether the time can be billed.
The hourly rate the entry is billed at, in the account’s currency. Only shown to people who may see that amount.
Whether the entry is on an invoice.
The invoice the entry is on, if any.
When the entry was created. Untimed time is stacked in this order when a day is converted.
Error on failure; default on success. Always serialized, per TData? ServiceResponse<TData, TError>.Data.
object
Stable, machine-readable error identifier (for example account.not_found).
Clients branch on this, never on string ErrorResponse.Message.
Human-readable description of what went wrong. Safe to surface to a User.
Optional per-field validation failures, keyed by field name. Null (and omitted from JSON) for errors that are not validation failures.
Optional machine-readable facts about the failure that a client renders rather than parses
out of string ErrorResponse.Message — e.g. plan.limit_reached’s limit, count and
planName. Null (and omitted from JSON) for errors that carry none.
