The Harvest agent connector is a Python package that equips AI agents to interact with Harvest through strongly typed, well-documented tools. It's ready to use directly in your Python app, in an agent framework, or exposed through an MCP.
Connector for the Harvest time-tracking and invoicing API (v2). Provides read access to time tracking data including users, clients, projects, tasks, time entries, invoices, estimates, expenses, and more. Harvest is a cloud-based time tracking and invoicing solution that helps teams track time, manage projects, and streamline invoicing.
The Harvest connector is optimized to handle prompts like these.
The Harvest connector isn't currently able to handle prompts like these.
uv pip install airbyte-agent-harvest
Connectors can run in open source or hosted mode.
In open source mode, you provide API credentials directly to the connector.
from airbyte_agent_harvest import HarvestConnector
from airbyte_agent_harvest.models import HarvestPersonalAccessTokenAuthConfig
connector = HarvestConnector(
auth_config=HarvestPersonalAccessTokenAuthConfig(
token="<Your Harvest personal access token>",
account_id="<Your Harvest account ID>"
)
)
@agent.tool_plain # assumes you're using Pydantic AI
@HarvestConnector.tool_utils
async def harvest_execute(entity: str, action: str, params: dict | None = None):
return await connector.execute(entity, action, params or {})
In hosted mode, API credentials are stored securely in Airbyte Cloud. You provide your Airbyte credentials instead.
If your Airbyte client can access multiple organizations, also set organization_id.
This example assumes you've already authenticated your connector with Airbyte. See Authentication to learn more about authenticating. If you need a step-by-step guide, see the hosted execution tutorial.
from airbyte_agent_harvest import HarvestConnector, AirbyteAuthConfig
connector = HarvestConnector(
auth_config=AirbyteAuthConfig(
customer_name="<your_customer_name>",
organization_id="<your_organization_id>", # Optional for multi-org clients
airbyte_client_id="<your-client-id>",
airbyte_client_secret="<your-client-secret>"
)
)
@agent.tool_plain # assumes you're using Pydantic AI
@HarvestConnector.tool_utils
async def harvest_execute(entity: str, action: str, params: dict | None = None):
return await connector.execute(entity, action, params or {})
