Your questions, answered
What is the Shyfter API actually for?
The API (Application Programming Interface) allows Shyfter to "talk" to your other software. Specifically, it automates the exchange of data (performances, new employees, schedules) to your payroll software, ERP, or internal reporting tools without any manual entry.
Is activating the API secure?
Absolutely. Security is at the heart of our infrastructure. Every exchange is encrypted, and you maintain full control over who can read or modify your HR data.
Do I need to be a developer to use the API?
To generate your API key in the Shyfter settings: no, it’s very simple. However, to connect Shyfter to custom software or an internal tool, a developer (or automation expert) is required to configure the data calls.
What types of tools can I connect Shyfter to?
You can connect the API to payroll software, Business Intelligence (BI) tools, or any custom internal platform.
What are the security requirements for using the API?
Security is paramount: two-factor authentication (2FA) is mandatory for all users accessing the OPEN API platform.
