allow control for the default email when sending invoices
When sending an invoice through Xero.com the format includes a "Pay Now" button. I wanted this when sending an invoice through the API.

Add If-Modified-Since optional parameter to Xero Projects APIs
We are trying to sync customer's Tasks across Xero Projects, currently we have to poll for all Tasks on each Project. Some customers are using 200+ 'active' (state= INPROGRESS) projects, however they are only adding 5-10 Tasks a day spread across these projects.
If we were able to query the /projects endpoint with a 'If-Modified-Since' parameter (or header) and the result only contained projects either updated direct or those that had associated Tasks added/edited, then we would only need to call /projects/:id/tasks for those ProjectId's, likewise if this endpoint also could be queried with
If-Modified-Sincethen only those new Tasks…1 vote -
Long lived tokens for testing purposes
Our challenge is with our test and verification setup: we have 4 stages of pre-production environments and every environment runs CI (Jenkins) with full tests each night and relevant tests with each code push. With this setup it is very challenging to share and update shared refresh tokens.
We would like long lived tokens (access and/or refresh) for testing purposes only.
Other services we work with have been able to change settings on app/client id level.1 vote -

Short-term cash flow - include draft invoices
I love the new cash flow feature, but I would love the option (a tick box that you could turn on and off) to include draft invoices.
When I set up a client we sent 3 invoices. I usually send the first, and make the next two as drafts. But this means these are not included in the cash flow projection.
I would love to be able to see these included or at least an option to choose to see them included.

Allow API Access to run the Bank Reconciliation Report
In lieu of being able to interact with the Bank Feed information directly via the API - it would be useful to be able to run the Bank Reconciliation Report directly from the API.
The use case in mind is:
I would like to set up a proactive notification when there are incoming amounts that are not reconciled in Xero in order to prompt someone to go in to Xero and manually reconcile those items. This will help prevent our customers from getting automated invoice reminders when they've paid.
We're not at the point yet where someone is in Xero…

Expose the new Expense feature via the API
Xero previously had an Expense Claims public API available (https://api.xero.com/api.xro/2.0/ExpenseClaims)
However since 2018, a new Xero Expense product has replaced Expense Claims and any new organisation is forced on the new expense product. This new expense product currently has no available API.
This is a regression as the previous API allowed developers to build integration with the Xero's expense features, however it is now not possible anymore.
There is an existing trello card for this feature however I do not understand why it is still in the "nice to have" column although the number of votes is higher…

update repeating invoices when an inventory item price is updated
Currently when an inventory item's price has been updated, the updated pricing does not automatically apply to repeating invoices. Would love for an option to update be available.

Include pagination for inventory items
Currently the GET /Items API method does not support any pagination request parameters.
This implies that we have to get all Items in one API call if we want to read all items, for instance during an initial historical sync.
This is highly inefficient and will lead to issues for Xero accounts having a lot of items.Adding pagination parameters will help to reduce the payload returned by this API method, which I believe to be in the interest of both Xero and the Xero API users ...
Thanks in advance for looking into this.

Query exchange rate through the API
The exchange rates are automatically calculated in Xero and not available for query. I want to use the same exchange rates in a third-party software (otherwise the reported money amounts will not match), so I need a way to query the exchange rates that were valid on a certain invoice date.

Provide API for retrieving Uncoded Statement Lines
Bank Reconciliation is necessarility a collaborative effort when multiple people have company cards and not everyone is great at uploading their statements.
We have been using a Python mechanize script to scrape xero and download uncoded statement lines, recognise transactions by the last 4 digits of the card numbers, and post that to slack to nag the respective company card holders, and that's been working ok for the past year...
We know how difficult it can be to change your minds on the necessity of API endpoints like bank statement line import and reconciliation via the API, or adding improvements…

Contact Bank Details (all fields) to be able to be updated via API
At the moment, contact bank details fields need to be updated through the front-end UI, only the BSB and Account number can be updated via API. Just wondering if Xero can add all fields to the Update contact details API function?
"BatchPayments": {
"BankAccountNumber": "0000007",
"BankAccountName": "XXXXX",
"Details": "SQUAD",
"Code": "",
"Reference": ""

Get mapping of companies with all embedded integrations
Suppose, I have more than 500 companies to manage and each one uses different integrations eg: routable, adp, toast, square etc. How can I see which company is associated with how many integrations. I want to have a report or api that can provide me that information.
Otherwise, there might be a possibility that for example: "Company A" in Xero might accidently or by human error be connected to "Company C" in routable instead of "Company A". Having some kind of metric can help in auditing/correcting such things else it could be a recipe for disaster.
