Understanding Namely API

Namely provides a REST API for employee data, time off, and org structure. Mid-market focused HRIS. Authentication uses OAuth 2.0. Note: Namely was acquired by UKG in 2023 and may have reduced API support going forward.

Key Integration Use Cases

• Employee data sync: Pull employee records, employment details, and org structure.
• Time-off data: Access leave requests and policy information.
• Payroll data: Basic payroll run data available in some configurations.

Integration Methods

Direct API

Namely's API requires per-customer OAuth setup. Their data model is straightforward but the platform's future direction is uncertain given the UKG acquisition.
