Harvest
Add Harvest to your product for your customers, and give your AI agents governed access to it.
Embed a Harvest integration so your customers can log and read their own tracked time from inside your product instead of switching tools at the end of the day. Every account has its own projects, tasks, and clients, so mapping is configuration per customer rather than code. fastn handles per-customer OAuth, pagination, and API upkeep.
In your product
Embedded for your customers. Per-tenant auth, no per-customer code, maintained by fastn.
Let customers log time against their own projects and tasks from inside your product.
Read time entries so your product can report effort per project or per client.
List projects, tasks, and clients so users pick the right combination without leaving your product.
Trigger your product when a time entry is created or a project is closed.
For your AI agents
Governed, audited access for the agents you build, through the MCP server.
An agent reads logged time and summarises where a week went.
An agent creates a time entry against the right project within governed permissions.
An agent flags projects with no time logged recently so an owner can check in.
Example prompt
Show time logged against this client last month by project and flag anything with no entries in two weeks.
Set up Harvest in 4 steps
- 01Open the Harvest connector from your fastn dashboard.
- 02Have each customer authorise their own Harvest account with OAuth.
- 03Map the projects, tasks, and clients your product uses, then enable actions and triggers.
- 04Call them from your product, or expose them to an agent through the MCP server.
Why teams use the Harvest integration
What you get by embedding it with fastn instead of building it yourself.
- Ship a Harvest integration without building it. Your customers connect their own Harvest account inside your product and work their work items, assignees and due dates there, with no per-customer code on your side.
- Handle the part that actually costs time: every team configures its own fields, statuses and workflow stages. fastn owns the auth, token refresh, rate limits, pagination and breaking-change fixes, so a Harvest update is not your on-call problem.
- One integration serves your product and your agents. The same governed Harvest connection powers in-product features and gives AI agents scoped, audited access, so you keep work items in step with what happens in your product without wiring it twice.

Harvest integration FAQ
How do I add a Harvest integration to my product?
Enable the Harvest connector in your fastn dashboard, then let each customer authenticate their own Harvest account. fastn handles the OAuth flow, token storage and refresh per tenant, so there is no Harvest client code in your app and no per-customer branch in your codebase. Setup is 4 steps.
Do my customers each connect their own Harvest account?
Yes. Every connection is scoped to the individual customer, so each authorises their own Harvest account and only ever sees their own work items, assignees and due dates. That per-tenant isolation is the point of an embedded integration: you support the long tail of customer setups without maintaining an integration per customer.
Can AI agents use this Harvest integration?
Yes. The same connection is exposed to your agents through the fastn MCP gateway, with permissions scoped per tenant and every call audited. An agent reads logged time and summarises where a week went.
Who maintains the Harvest integration?
fastn does. When Harvest changes an endpoint, deprecates a field or alters its auth, the fix lands in the connector rather than in your backlog, and your customers' connections keep working.
Can my product create and update work in Harvest automatically?
Yes. Items can be created, updated, assigned and transitioned from your product, and changes made in Harvest can trigger your workflows in return.
Does it adapt to each team's own Harvest setup?
Yes. However a team has configured Harvest, whether that is custom fields, statuses and workflow stages or its own calendars and working hours, those are mapped per customer, so an unusual setup works without custom code from you.
What can I build with the Harvest integration?
A common starting point: log time against their own projects and tasks from inside your product. Teams also use it for the other use cases listed above, and expose it to agents for governed reads and writes.
How much does the Harvest integration cost?
It is included. Pricing is based on connected accounts, not on how many connectors you enable, so adding Harvest does not change your per-connector cost. You can start free with 3 connected accounts.
