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.

Aged Receivables/Payables by all contacts in API
Be able to get aged Receivables and Payables for all contacts via the API and not have to call them one at a time!!!!
Surely this would be a massive help to your own API given I'm sure multiple people are just smashing the API by making call after call to get all the contacts out!!!

Allow querying the MFA state for users via the API
It's great that xero supports MFA and I would like to query which users have MFA enabled (or more importantly which don't) and import into our SOC so we can ensure that all accounts are protected.
Given how big a target a finance platform like Xero is for business email compromise and phishing scenarios and how critical MFA is in preventing these attacks - being able to collect this information and easily catch unprotected accounts is very useful.

Xero Projects API - bill line items
Note - you need a projects API section now it has been released.
To enable full use of OCR apps with Projects there needs to be the ability to post bill line items to projects as expenses. Without this functionality any business that wants to automate their billing and approval process cannot use Xero projects (without manual intervention in Xero).
As an exmaple - I currently have a client looking to do this with 50 active staff. This would be £250pm or £3,000pa potential Xero fees lost as they would use a different app that does both.

Bank rules in the API
Please allow me to list, get, post, and delete bank rules in the API. We manage several Organizations and we're copying around these rules by hand right now. It's annoying, expensive, and prone to mistakes. I'd LOVE to just write a script to do it.

Expose employee cost rate data through an API endpoint
Currently, we can enter employee cost rate data into Xero, but this data is not available back to us through the API. This limits our company's ability to accurately track project profitability, especially through more sophisticated solutions using BI tools outside of Xero. A simple solution would be to expose this data through the Projects endpoint (
Usertable) or another Xero API endpoint (Accounting?). Such a limitation has sparked recent conversation in our LT to migrate away from Xero as our company grows > 50 employees. Without this data available in the API, messy workarounds are implemented externally.18 votes -
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…

Reconciliation API
It is very important to add an API that would allow us to pull the reconciliation data in order to connect it to our customized platform where we can add more AI logic which will make reconciliation much faster and easier.
We can pull all bills and invoices, and it would be great if we can integrate the reconciliation of Xero in order. this way our developers can implement the logic that works for our business15 votes -

Webhook payload update to decrease API calls
We use Xero Invoice Webhook to create the electronic invoices needed to comply with Argentina tax laws.
We have discovered some updates that could be made to the invoice webhook in order to dramatically decrease the API calls we send to Xero (to get the invoices details).I think this updates will also benefit the implementation of e-invoice in USA, AU and NZ.
The two updates are very simple. Just add to the invoice webhook payload the following data:
1 -invoice type (in order to avoid API call for bills)
2- nvoice status (in order to avoid API calls for draft…8 votes -

Request multiple ManualJournalIDs with a single call
We have over 100k Journals. If something changes, I may need to look at a few hundred ManualJournalIDs on Xero. Right now, I have to either page through 100,000 at 100 per page (takes about 4 hours), OR request them one at a time.
It would be great if there was some way to pass a list of up to 100 ManualJournalIDs at a time to Xero, and get the details for them.

API Health Check
With Microservices now being all the rage, applications consuming Xero APIs need to be able to deal with their availability/non-availability. A "health-check" similar to the Java Microprofile Health service (see https://github.com/eclipse/microprofile-health) would support to enabling/disablng functionality related to Xero APIs based on the result these "health-checks". As a result user interfaces could enable or suppress functionality that requires the use of Xero APIs depending on these health-checks.

Enhance API to include Invoice Created By information
Created by is an important audit field and minimally allows the broader organization to know who to go to for questions...E.g. Think PM getting Invoice questions from customers and then needs to speak with whomever created the invoice to review.
Additionally, this impacts many 3rd party integration tools such as Breadwinner that aim to surface Xero data into other systems. The better enabled integration partners are, the more successful Xero will be in growing with customers and entering larger companies.
Enhancement / Use Case:
Enable API to be able to include the name of the person creating an invoice via…6 votes -
Payments API HasAttachments
Hi there,
Currently, there is no way to determine via the API if a payment has an attachment. We are able to retrieve any attachments via using the BankTransactions endpoint (using the payment ID).
For completeness, we need to be able to have the HasAttachment attribute accessible when returning a list of payments - the only way to do this currently is to retrieve the BankStatements/ID/Attachments endpoint for EVERY single payment - which is a pretty big use of resources.
Alternatively (a breaking change) - can we either be able to retrieve Payments via the BankTransactions end point. Adding "HasAttachments"…

Add more objects to Zapier
You've already created an app on Zapier, well done. But the app is very limited (Invoices, etc). Please add more object types. If most of your object types were there, we could integrate much easier with Xero. And Xero's technical cred would increase dramatically if the ease of moving Journals, Payments, etc were simply creating new Zaps.
