Long lived tokens for testing purposes
Our challenge is with our test and verification setup: we have 4 stages of pre-production environments and every environment runs CI (Jenkins) with full tests each night and relevant tests with each code push. With this setup it is very challenging to share and update shared refresh tokens.
We would like long lived tokens (access and/or refresh) for testing purposes only.
Other services we work with have been able to change settings on app/client id level.1 vote -
Add If-Modified-Since optional parameter to Xero Projects APIs
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-Sincethen only those new Tasks…1 vote -
allow control for the default email when sending invoices
When sending an invoice through Xero.com the format includes a "Pay Now" button. I wanted this when sending an invoice through the API.

automatically insert a Pay Now button when an invoice is emailed to a customer via the API POST function
Currently the Xero API allows us to trigger the emailing of a Xero invoice to the customer via a POST command.
If a Payment Service is already set up in Xero, the emailed invoice should automatically include the Pay Now button.

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.

deferred
Our business uses deferred income, and my accounts person makes an excel sheet everything month to calculate it (I only discovered this the other day)
Having revied the invoice API, it would be awesome if
1) A field called diferredincome to the invoice item, so that we can flag an invoice on creation as diferred, and export that information via the api. The field value would be number of months. E.g. a difered invoice over a year would have the value of 12.
2) Create a diferred income report using this data.
3) Create the journal entried for the diferred…

Customisation of packing slip
There needs to be a simple way of customising the inbuilt packing slip (and accessing it) rather than having to go in and change the view.
Or can you please amend it to at least include a signatory section for the recipient to sign as Proof of Collection and change the name to Delivery Note.

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.

The Assets API only allows POST requests of one Asset at a time.

Contact search should be case insensitive via API
While creating the sales invoice via API, usually we check if the contact is already created or not, to search the contact the name/keyword must be used in the same case that is available on Xero, if its different then it will not search.
1 voteHi Swapnil,
Thanks for the post.
We currently have a work around for the issue you are currently facing which may be of use.
It is possible to include ToLower() in the where clause when quering the endpoint. ie. ?Name.ToLower()=="{name}’
See the following commultiy thread for more information: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/60265042/can-xero-contacts-be-filtered-by-name-case-insensitive
