No, you don't have to use your IO Shield. It won't harm the hardware if you skip it.

It simply secures the ports onto the motherboard, which isn’t a major issue unless you’re using it. Sure, the design looks somewhat unappealing with that opening there—I’d avoid leaving it exposed if possible.

I didn't have a matching piece, so I skipped using one.

Used? Then check back and request a return from the seller for an Io shield.

Using a different setup wouldn't harm your motherboard.

It won't work, but if you got it brand new, request an IO shield.
