Add an API endpoint for starting and stopping project timers, and getting the current time
There are currently endpoints for adding time logging to Xero, but not for interacting with the running timers.
It would be really helpful to be able to do this, so that I (and others) could have external tools (in my case a StreamDeck) able to start and stop timers.
I would also like to be able to request information on what the timer is currently on in order to get live feedback.

Show more love on Practice Manager API
The Job returned by the XPM API v3.1 is not consistent, for example:
01. Jobs - GET - Current -> contained <WebUrl>
02. Jobs - GET - Staff ID -> does not have <WebUrl>Also, I find it a little puzzling, on how all other "Schedule Information" fields such as Start Date, Due Date, Partner, Manager, and even all Assigned Staffs are included in GET Current Jobs, but Priority is not..
Could the Practice Manager API have a little bit more love from Xero? I really suspect that the XPM API is built by completely separate team, because even by…

Enable Bank feeds to public
Allow bank feed to be retrieved via Xero API. All I want to do is allow my staff to see what payments have been received in the last day so they can release equipment. Very basic. But I go through paying the subscription and setting up the whole thing just to find that obvious and needed option is not available?? If I try to setup an API with the NAB thats going to be a nightmare. Its all there in Xero - if we log in we can see it. So why not allow access with an API?

include the optionID in the "Get budgets" operation
According to the developer reference here https://developer.xero.com/documentation/api/accounting/budgets
The get budgets operation should include both the tracking category option name and ID.Currently, only the name comes through which means we are forced to name match unless we validate the names via a seperate API call before trusting that budgets are for specific options.
This method we are forced to use does not account for name collisions.

Update Repeating invoices via the API
It's great that we can create and delete repeating invoices via the API, but we also need the ability to update them, especially options such as ApprovedForSending, Next Invoice Date, and Due Date.

Provide a start and end date for budgets in the "Get Budgets" operation
We are currently implementing a feature where we bring in divisional budgets.
The companies we import into our product have data for a specific date range and we wish to filter out budgets for selection that do not have a date range that overlaps with the rest of the company data.
Without the ability to do this our users will have to pick from any budget that is filtered by a tracking category option and if they choose one that doesn't overlap we will have to either
- not connect the invalid budget in the first place and provide feedback as…

Send Remittance Advice via API
I would love to be able to send a remittance advice via API. There are a couple of scenarios where this is would be useful:
1. Monitoring the bank feed for reconciled payments and sending the Remittance ass appropriate
2. Generating a payment file from a list of invoices that are being paid and sending the remittance as appropriate3 votes -

budget upload to Xero API
It would be great to have an budget upload API.
I'm using G-Accon to push data in Xero, it would be great to be able to push budgets too.
Currently, Xero's budget manager is a bit rigid in its layout. However with G-Accon I could use a custom layout, or for example narrow down for a departmental budget, and then push to Xero.3 votes -
Include Contact field in Journal Report API
When running the Journal Report API, Contact should be included in the resulting fields. We want to be able to see contacts by Account for our planning system.

Create more granular accounting scopes (eg: Sales - Invoice only)
Right now there is a very wide range of APIs wrapped up in the "accounting.transactions" scope, with no way to provide more granular access within these APIs (https://developer.xero.com/documentation/guides/oauth2/scopes#organisation-scopes).
This means that it's not possible to grant access to something quite narrow without also granting access to other things that are often not needed. For example, you cannot grant permission to creating/manipulating Sales Invoices without also giving access to all Bank Transactions at the same time.
This problem is perhaps accentuated for Custom Connections, which are designed to be used for "in house" integrations, as ALL developers with access…

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 -
enable creation of invoices from accepted quotes via API
Once a quote has been ACCEPTED it would be very useful to then turn this into an Invoice via the API, as per the manual user task of pressing the "Create Invoice" in the Xero web portal.

Ability to configure the email (to, subject & message) when creating repeating invoices via the API
It's great to see that creating and deleting repeating invoices is now available in the API. However, there was one crucial thing that was missed: There is no ability to create/define the EMAIL MESSAGE that gets sent with the repeating invoice.
The documentation mentions “You can use the API to trigger the email of an approved repeating sales invoice out of Xero by setting the ApprovedForSending to true and the status to AUTHORISED.”
The API has the fields SendCopy, MarkAsSent and IncludePDF, but there is no ability to define the actual content of the email.
This has somehow been missed.

Sync 0.00 value invoices and credit notes from Stock&Buy to Xero
Sync 0.00 value invoices and credit notes from Stock&Buy to Xero
Some online orders will be synced to S&B with 0.00 value to ensure our stock are correct. We will add the sales invoices into Xero base on these orders fortnightly statement. These 0 value invoices can be synced to Xero, but the refunds can't. This will cause the inventory difference between S&B and Xero.
Thank you.

Enhance endpoints such as Invoices to allow filtering on LineItems sub fields
For performance purposes and to keep the amount of data in transit down, it would be good to enhance the Invoices and other endpoints to allowing filtering on LineItems.
For instanced, AccountCode, ItemCode or TrackingCategories.
This will allow devs to query a smaller subset rather than pull all invoices.

Add batch support to the Assets API
CURRENTLY
The Assets API only allows POST requests of one Asset at a time.
ISSUE
If you need to create a lot of assets, that's a lot of POST requests.
SOLUTION
Support batch POST requests e.g. Payload = { Assets: [ ...assets ] }
