This article is for admins who use third-party apps with Gusto and developers who want to build on the Gusto application programming interface (API).
We work with many types of apps, including accounting, applicant tracking, performance management, time tracking, and business operations software.
You can find all of Gusto's integrated apps online or in the App directory of your Gusto account.
We’ve spent more than 10 years building modern payroll, benefits, and HR solutions for more than 300,000 U.S. employers. We’re opening our API to more customers. You can view all our API documentation online, including instructions for accessing each API.
We offer two ways to partner using our API:
Build an application: Create an integration between your software and our external API to help solve problems for shared customers. We feature every integrated partner in our in-app directory and website. Learn more.
Gusto Embedded Payroll: With Gusto Embedded Payroll, you can build customizable payroll experiences into the core software your businesses already use—vertical software as a service (SaaS) platform, point of sale, or ecommerce platform.
Note: We currently do not support API access for Gusto customers who want to connect their own company systems directly to their Gusto account. We hope to offer this in the future and appreciate your patience.
