Namely is a mid-market Human Capital Management (HCM) platform combining HR, payroll, onboarding, benefits administration, time and attendance, performance management and applicant tracking, delivered as a multi-tenant SaaS on customer subdomains. It publishes a public developer portal on Stoplight carrying a Swagger 2.0 contract for its REST API v1 (39 paths, 54 operations, 95 schemas) covering employee profiles, the tenant-specific profile field schema, groups and teams, job titles and tiers, company resources, the social home feed, notifications and reports. Alongside the REST API, Namely runs a SCIM 2.0 provisioning surface acting as the source of record for identity providers such as Okta, and supports SAML 2.0 single sign-on as a service provider. Authentication is either a 3-legged OAuth 2.0 authorization code grant for partner integrations or a Personal Access Token for a customer's own integrations, both minted inside the customer's own tenant. Namely merged into the combined Vensure Employer Solutions / PrismHR organisation in September 2022.
