jobcan-lambda

Simple AWS Lambda function to record your work attendance to Jobcan. This enables you to build a GPS-based automatic attendance recording system using IFTTT.

Installation

• Create two AWS Lambda functions
  • jobcanStart
  • jobcanEnd
• Set env var JOBCAN_ADIT to work_start and work_end respectively
• Create Amazon API Gateway to trigger the functions
• Create IFTTT applets to call the API
  • Note that you have to send credential as body

Usage

Below is an example body to send.

{
  "credential": {
    "client_id": "your-company-name",
    "account_type": "staff",
    "login_id": "[email protected]",
    "password": "yoursecretpassword"
  }
}

Note

Currently, once your API endpoint exposed, anyone around the world can invoke the function without any limitation. You might want throttling and/or authentication to call the API.
