Shapes

Sync Shapes people data and time off to automate HR-driven IT provisioning and lifecycle workflows

Shapes is an AI-native HR platform covering people directory, time off, attendance, workflows, performance, analytics, surveys, and documents. Connecting Shapes to Harmony syncs employee data and approved time off into Harmony, so IT provisioning, offboarding, and routing can be driven by the same source of truth HR uses.

What the Shapes integration enables

Capability
