Getting HCSS API Credentials

To use the HCSS Web Edition Pre-Bill Module in EWBills, you’ll first need API credentials from HCSS. These credentials allow EWBills to securely retrieve timecard data from your HeavyJob Web Edition account.

Steps to Obtain API Credentials

  1. Contact HCSS Support
    Reach out to HCSS and request API credentials for use with EWBills.

  2. Request the Following Scopes:
    When submitting your request, be sure to ask for access to these minimum scopes:

    • heavyjob:read

    • timecards:read

    • dis:read 
      (Setup read access is only required if you want to pull rates from the Pay Class in HCSS)

  3. Record Your Credentials Securely
    HCSS will provide a Client ID and Client Secret. Store these securely—you’ll need them later during EWBills setup.

✅ Once you have your credentials, you’re ready to request activation of the module in EWBills. See Activating the HCSS Web Edition Pre-Bill Module in EWBills for the next steps.
