Just putting the finishing touches on my semi auto build. Eventually, I'd like to put an Atlas on it, but for now I just want to get my Harris (which I share between 2 other rifles with sling studs) onto the rail. Don't want to do QD cause my other two rifles don't have rail's to mount onto. Was looking at KAC-KNIGHTS ARMAMENT RAS BIPOD ADAPTER RAIL but was wondering if there were better options. Will accept solutions that mount directly to keymod or a rail.

I use a YHM adapter on a Seekins railed HS stock. It seems to be contoured well for the shape of the Harris saddle. I think I spent $32 on it.
Anybody know which one the DPMS SASS comes with?
Novekse troy trx swivel stud. Fits perfect in the keymod slot.
^^ THIS!! ^^
For <$10, this is the way to go if you have a KEYMOD rail (it'll be ~$17 shipped). If you are stuck with a picatinny rail and only a complete adapter will work, then the YHM (which IS the DPMS SASS adapter IIRC) is a good and fairly inexpensive way to go.
Noveske Low Profile Sling Swivel Stud Mount Troy TRX TRX Alpha Is this the part you mean?
Edit: I'll be damned if I can find one in stock anywhere.

Good heavens!! Whatever you do, don't start telling people that...somebody might believe it and then...well...there goes my reputation otherwise!!
I wasn't sure if Noveske would have them in stock or not, but I'm glad they got you sorted out...with FREE S&H on top of it. Can't beat that!!
Shipped out just now, so it was in stock.
I'd also take a look at the Odin Works low profile bipod adapters.

Edit.....Looks like you found what you were looking for, but I will leave this up for anyone else looking for adapters.

Here is a link to an AR15.com thread with more discussion regarding Harris bipod adapters. It appears Impact Weapons Components may be making/offering an alternative keymod stud adapter to directly attach a Harris bipod relatively soon. I called the company and was told cost was going to be under $10.
According to the thread, more information with respect to availability will be forthcoming sometime in March.

This worked PERFECTLY, looks a bit nicer than the ones that have to use a spacer, and was MUCH cheaper than those options as well.

^^^^^ this!
Glad you got it and that it meets your requirements! They are nice little pieces of kit indeed!
This is what I have on my Colt M4 and IMHO it as good as a Harris.

Here we go with another recommendation of cheap, chinese knock-off products to folks. UTG/Leapers/etc. make some of the worst garbage I have seen and their bipods, having witnessed a good many of them @#$% the bed over the years, pale in comparison to the Harris offerings in terms of long-term durability, robustness of construction/materials, etc. (not to mention, try breaking one and then asking about getting it repaired/replaced).
If they work for you...great. But be aware...they are a $40 mistake waiting for an opportunity to crash and burn at an inopportune moment, especially under any rough use afield.
Just my 2¢: If you buy a cheap bipod and it breaks, and then you have to buy a second one, you have spent as much as a Harris. Plus your supporting an American company, which doesn't hurt. And if you're out shooting at match and it goes out that's time and money wasted.
That was only my suggestion. I also have two other Harris's that I can use and a Caldwell that swivels. The el cheepo one is much easier to attach to my hand guard.
