HR systems

Learn how to set up your HR system integration with Swarmia.

Why connect your HR system

• Sync time off periods to get more accurate developer effort metrics.

• Improve Swarmia's contributor data quality by syncing employee data.

• Show time off in the work log for team visibility.

Choose how to connect

Swarmia offers two ways to bring HR data in. When a direct integration is available for your HR system, it's the best option — Swarmia connects to your provider over OAuth, with no third-party data processor in between. For everything else, Swarmia uses Merge.dev, a universal HR connector that covers a wide range of providers.

Through Merge.dev

Merge.dev is a universal HR connector that supports a wide range of providers. Use it when your HR system doesn't have a direct integration yet.

HR system integrations are part of the Enterprise plan. If you're on a different plan, your CSM or account manager can enable the feature for your organization. If neither is an option, you can still get the same improvements in developer effort accuracy by importing time off data via CSV or pushing it in through the Time off API.
