  1. 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.

  2. Hi Team,
    Can you please provide an API to get Login History of all users.

    The data is already available in Xero's Dashboard but there is no API associated for the same.

    It will help us to track our users in more better way.

  3. 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.

  4. We would like xero to build an API to extract the report called "Expenses by supplier". Currently to extract spend by supplier we have to extract all payments and bills and build this back up ourselves.

  7. Our main use case for webhooks is to indicate whether we need to refresh the data. Because of this, we don't need an update for every change that a customer makes. If we could respond to a webhook message indicating that we didn't want to receive any more requests for a period of time (1 hour, 6 hours, 1 day etc) then that would save processing and bandwidth on both sides.

  9. In the organisations settings API, it does not send through the PAYGW period for Australian entities. In our app, the user currently has to manually choose this in our app, whereas it could be automatic if it was added to the API.

  10. Working for an organization currently migrating from MYOB to Xero - their decision.

    Replicating existing custom application is problematic due to apparent glaring deficiencies in the Xero API compared to MYOB, despite Xero's age advantage.

    An example is MYOB's Account Activity Summary End-Point - called AccountRegister - which lists activity by account by month.

    This end-point allows for a fast and simple process to compare Budget values to Actual values, without being forced to trawl through all the transactions, and all of the issues that can cause that to be incorrect.

    It seems inconceivable that such a basic end-point is…

  11. I'd like to build an automation to enter various comments (of my choosing) in the discuss tab in Xero depending upon what the AI finds in the transaction. The current APIs don't allow for comments to be entered in the discuss tab in Xero.

  12. So we collect a lot of prepayments in our work, and those require a customized branding theme to act as a receipt as they are unlike the regular invoice payments.

    Hopefully in future, there will be a way to apply a branding theme to a specific PrepaymentID via the API too.

    Thanks!

  13. I wanted to inquire if there are any plans or possibilities to expose APIs for wip and staff capacities in XPM. Such an API could be incredibly valuable for integrating with our internal tools and streamlining workflows.

  14. Through Xero API, invoices and bills can be created or updated with up to 7 decimal places while payment transactions can only be created or updated with up to 6 decimal places, it would be great that payments transactions could also be created/updated with 7 decimals

  17. 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.

  18. 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 appropriate
