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.

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 -

Get, Post and Delete project Expenses
Currently, project endpoints are only available for projects, tasks and time. Unfortunately, expense for projects aren't available. Projects are an important feature for many businesses including construction and I've had numerous clients request this. This information can only be pulled via a detailed project report but the layout and format are very limited. So if the client would like to integrate the data to a CRM or format it a particular way they aren't able to.

Search for a purchase order number using the API which includes a forward slash
We are creating purchase orders in Xero which have a purchase order in the format of: 'ABCDE/123'. These are coming from DataBuild. When using the PurchaseOrders API endpoint, we are unable to search for purchase orders due to the forward slash character. Have tried using various escape characters in the API call, but it does not work. The Xero API Explorer also fails when running the same call against the PurchaseOrders endpoint, yet the purchase order exists in Xero. We would like to be able to search for purchase orders using escape characters.

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 -

create new endpoint for "Copy to Bill"
there's an article for "Creating Bills from Purchase Orders" (https://central.xero.com/s/article/Creating-bills-from-purchase-orders), however I can't find endpoint for this action in accounting API (https://xeroapi.github.io/xero-node/accounting/index.html#api-Accounting).
Update the status using updatePurchaseOrder (https://xeroapi.github.io/xero-node/accounting/index.html#api-Accounting-updatePurchaseOrder) won't let user create a bill in xero by default.
Fyi, this is my case detail : (https://central.xero.com/s/case?caseId=5003m00001DLY6B)
Thanks

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…

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.

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.
