  2. .NET SDK has removed "JOBKEEPER" as an Allowance item. However, when retrieving Pay Items, an archived item with that type is retrieved, meaning the retrieval of pay items fails via the SDK.
    Should be able to filter out archived items when retrieving data.

  3. It would be great to support compression e.g. gzip for API response payloads. Currently including the Accept-Encoding header within requests does not result in any resource size reduction.

  4. In XPM you can create a time entry for a Job you are not assigned to. However this is not possible if we are making the time entry through the API.

    The API should offer that possibility as it is the same as in the browser.

    The API is not allowed to reproduce the same behaviour as in the the portal which is a bug.

  6. The Projects endpoint of the Xero Projects API does not include the OpenDate and ClosedDate as fields.

    These are useful for users to report with and should be included.

  9. 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-Since then only those new Tasks…

  11. It appears that there are two key things missing from the current version of the Xero API:

    The Tables part of the API does not currently have a connection to the Nominal Ledger (Account) Transactions

    The Reports part of the API connects to several of the standard reports, but doesn’t connect to the Account Transactions report.

    Either of these would allow a full list of transactions to be accessed via the API.

  13. Why Office 365 backup? Well, to put it simply, taking initiatives necessary to secure important organizational information is important to the survival of any organization. Attackers often target the information that is most sensitive and would fetch them the highest ransom. If recent trends and researches on these trends are anything to go by then these attacks are getting more sophisticated with each passing day.

    The best way to protect the data most important to you is to be in complete control of it yourself. EdbMails Office 365 backup is a one stop solution that not only helps you create…

  14. Currently only 4 fields are supported through the API for Bank Transfers transactions – Amount, From Bank Account, To Bank Account & Date.

    It would be great if the remaining fields that are available via Xero's UI could also be supported in the API:
    API - namely:
    - From Account: Accounts Export Branch
    - To Account: Accounts Export Branch
    - Reference
    - 2 Amount fields (if From & To bank accounts are in different - currencies).

  17. I want to create a tracking option ((i.e) Add tracking option) under the respective tracking category, using Xero tracking category API for my organisation. But while creating data using 'put' Requests method, it is not creating.

    Category}/Options'

  18. When paying a Bill in Xero you can check a box "Pay by Check". This will add a new "check" to the list of checks and the user can print these checks and mail them.

    Would be helpful to allow this via the Payment API endpoint

  19. Be able to filter by fields inside an object which has lists. Such as Invoice's Line Items.
    These fields contain important information such as tracking category, amounts, totals which would be a good functionality if one is able to filter using these information so to create more detailed reports
