1. ... make transaction data available via the API

   It appears that there are two key things missing from the current version of the Xero API:

   The Tables part of the API does not currently have a connection to the Nominal Ledger (Account) Transactions

   The Reports part of the API connects to several of the standard reports, but doesn’t connect to the Account Transactions report.

   Either of these would allow a full list of transactions to be accessed via the API.

2. Open up the Pay Run (Global) to the API

   It is currently not possible to get/post/push data related to the payrun for the global edition. This limits integration with systems who can help with the administration of the payroll.

3. Return TrackingOptionId from GET BankTransactions

   TrackingCategories returns IDs for both categories and options as follows

   <TrackingCategory>
   <Name>My Category</Name>
   <Status>ACTIVE</Status>
   <TrackingCategoryID>a020cd2b-31ac-49a4-b459-f8ffbe854e7c</TrackingCategoryID>
   <Options>
   <Option>
   <TrackingOptionID>dc167d85-6c3a-4261-b7f9-4fda00c2e38d</TrackingOptionID>
   <Name>My Option</Name>
   </Option>

   GET BankTransactions with a bank transaction id specified returns both the category id and name, but only the option name (no id).

   <Tracking>
   <TrackingCategory>
   <Name>My Category Name</Name>
   <Option>My Option Name</Option>
   <TrackingCategoryID>23333b58-b938-479c-9bdd-5a599bec698c</TrackingCategoryID>
   </TrackingCategory>
   </Tracking>

   I want to know, what is the format for the data to be updated in the requests, for both content type xml/text and application/json.

   xml_string and url, I given is below:

   xmlstring='<Option><Name>S11963</Name></Option>'
   url = 'https://api.xero.com/api.xro/2.0/TrackingCategories/{TrackingCategory}/Options'

   where Tracking_Category='620815a2-a7c6-4b85-8b01-ffb254ab34ad'

   Error: <ApiException xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">\r\n <ErrorNumber>500</ErrorNumber>\r\n <Type>UnknownErrorException</Type>\r\n <Message>An error occurred in Xero.

5. Allow Custom URL Schemes

   Currently the URL elements of various Xero resources appear to reject URLs that do not fit the http or https scheme. It would be very helpful if this barrier was removed.

   Both OS X and iOS are seeing an explosion of applications that implement custom URL schemes as a way to hook or callback. https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/iPhone/Conceptual/iPhoneOSProgrammingGuide/Inter-AppCommunication/Inter-AppCommunication.html

   My personal use case is a custom built warehouse management system. Our established application is hosted on premises, with client runtimes on OS X and iOS. We're integrating as a private app to Xero and will be pushing in contacts, payables and sales. All of these will retain supporting detail in our existing system. Allowing a URL to our custom scheme could give Xero interfaces 1-click navigation back into corresponding records in our system.

8. 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-Since then only those new Tasks will be returned.

   This would greatly reduce the number of API calls made each polling event (and keep within our current rate limits)

   Alternatively, could support /tasks to be returned across all Projects (with projectId as a field) still with the 'If-Modified-Since' support

10. Extend Bank Transfer transactions API so that all fields available through Xero's UI are also supported through API

    Currently only 4 fields are supported through the API for Bank Transfers transactions – Amount, From Bank Account, To Bank Account & Date.

    It would be great if the remaining fields that are available via Xero's UI could also be supported in the API:
    API - namely:
    - From Account: Accounts Export Branch
    - To Account: Accounts Export Branch
    - Reference
    - 2 Amount fields (if From & To bank accounts are in different - currencies).

15. prepayment

    Update documentation for Prepayment allocations. In current documentation you get the feeling that prepayment can have allocation only on Invoice, but if you send CreditNote or another Prepayment it works correctly.

    It would be awesome to write this down in documentation and next time name the element TransactionID, or somehow so you don't think only Invoice is supported.

18. Supply <Attachments> elements in standard endpoints when `page` is given

    Currently, it seems that you need to make a separate call to get <Attachments>. Being able to get this supplied on the standard invoices/bank transactions/manual journals/credit notes endpoints when page is given would help lower the number of API calls without much increasing the amount of data sent.
