Expose the Online invoicing URL via the Xero API
Xero has recently released online invoicing functionality within the main application (http://help.xero.com/#OnlineInvoices).
Be able to retrieve the online invoicing URL via the Xero API.
Note that this URL is only generated when the invoice is emailed within the Xero application. Exposing this field will be of limited value until further work is done to be able to email an invoice from Xero via the API (but that is a separate issue).

Hi everyone,
It’s been a long time coming but it’s finally here, the online invoice url is now available via the API!

Thanks for your patience.

We could really use an ETA on this feature. It's been a request for a long time now.

Is there any update on the first step of returning the URL when it is present?
This is actually all our application needs!

Returning when present is an excellent interim step, thanks for looking into that as a way to move this feature request along.

Seems like a very useful feature which should be a snap to add to the API. Can we have it?

I need to link to the Xero invoice. Seems it only works if the most recent company in Xero is the one we are linking to. Would this feature solve this issue?

+ 1. Enable us to automate invoice send out which is a very time consuming thing for us at the moment.

I agree with Anton; exposing this field (read only) would be precisely what developers need to create compelling functionality around payment reminders etc until the more complex ability to email an invoice is available.
