Connection management in Developer Portal
With the upcoming changes to the developer program and connection-based billing, I’ve run into a practical issue: there’s currently no clear way to determine which connections are still active versus legacy or unused.
In most cases, there’s a single connection per Xero tenant. However, edge cases do occur, for example when a tenant wasn’t correctly disconnected, resulting in multiple connections tied to the same tenant across different users. Over time, these can accumulate, and it becomes difficult to identify which ones are actually in use.
Would it be possible to introduce a “Last Used” or “Last Request” field for each…

CIS
CIS annual statements - it would be very helpful if we could bulk email ALL subcontractors at the end of the tax year. Most lose monthly emailed statements so ask for an annual statement so they can do their returns and its time consuming to go in and individually, download statement, print to PDF and then email each person one at a time. Can you make a function like with the monthly CIS returns where you can email ALL subcontractors at once please ! :)

Add an RSS feed to https://developer.xero.com/changelog
Adding an RSS/Atom feed to https://developer.xero.com/changelog allows for much greater visibility of changes when they happen.
Instead of that one random time we stumble across the changelog page, or having to schedule a time to check it every x days/weeks - we can just subscribe to the feed and get updates as they're posted.

Improve Error Handling in Batch Requests – Identify Which Records Succeeded or Failed
When creating multiple records in a single API request (e.g., contacts or invoices), if some records succeed and others fail, the response only includes information about the failed records.
There is no indication of which records were successfully processed, making it difficult to reconcile results and handle retries programmatically.
It would be highly beneficial if the API could return a structured response that includes both:
A list of successful records (with IDs)
A list of failed records (with error messages)
This enhancement would significantly improve error handling and make batch operations more reliable and developer-friendly.

Webhook or redirect url for when a user disconnects your connected app
Other platforms have webhooks or redirect urls for when a user manually disconnects the app from their (Xero) side.
Currently we will just get an
invalid_granterror without knowing if its due to the user disconnecting, or if something has gone wrong and a token refresh failed - requiring the user to reconnect.This is very useful to determine if the disconnection is intentional, especially when the billing isnt attached to the connection status.
Its also important to know so we can send the correct emails etc

An Enterprise Xero Platform for Larger Clients
An Enterprise Xero Platform for larger clients to transfer to instead of having to go to another Accounting Platform. So you can transfer them to this 'level' of Xero and the transactions etc flow with it.

Support for retrieving files from a specific folder
In the API documentation, under the Files API, it describes the ability to retrieve a list of files from a specified folder, e.g.
GET https://api.xero.com/files.xro/1.0/Folders/414b3040-2829-4385-b458-3ead98fc69ca/Files
This functionality doesn't seem to be currently supported on the Net or NetStandard libraries.

Bugfix for C# SDK - Journal endpoint is missing page
A simple fix maybe - you do not seem to have implemented Page() on the JOURNAL endpoint in C#. The other endpoints all have it - and offset is a little mysterious.

Global Search Ability money idea
Hi Xero, In ten years time, wish new management will delegate a new project for their own benefits: implement "combinatorial search terms like google drive" in your global search function in Xero Practice Manager. Combinatorial search terms are like " Client first name , last name and ITR 2017" to instantly bring up search result showing "income tax returns 2017 for John Doe".
I wish your "Jobs" function in Xero Practice Manager allows attaching "attachments" to each job similar to Gmail for better workflow management.
Please share management to implement for your own benefits.
2 votesThis sounds like a cool idea that a third party developer could build on top of our API.
It’s not something we’d consider building and releasing as a Xero product though

Official Perl Library
Originally I started using the CPAN Net::Xero module but found that while I could get things working that this was difficult to work with.
I have started trying to create a more comprehensive library ( https://github.com/pscott-au/CCP-Xero ) which I would like to evolve to the point of being officially supported. I expect to draw on the DTD specs to create object representations of the Xero objects and continue to refine the implementation to level comparable with that of other platforms.
If I continue to refine this implementation would Xero consider including in their list of SDK's - if so what…3 votes

to have an "activity" button or tab, that shows in descending order all the activity you have done on Xero for the day (like a history tab),
Make it 'clickable' so you can go back to transactions that may need editing, or to remember how you handled a credit note etc. This would be great for people not that familiar with Xero.
1 voteThis is a great idea for the Xero product and you should definitely raise your idea here https://community.xero.com/business/topic/23/

Windows executable uploads invoice to xero
I want a windows executable that takes a csv file in a particular format and uploads it to Xero.
I can then simply configure third party software such as excel to simply execute the executable and upload an invoice.
I shouldnt have to goto the trouble of writing a heap of code to achieve this.

Simplify Testing - Endpoint to reset all demo account data
In order to build solid, tested systems, we need to run end-to-end tests on our apps.
Proposal - Create a custom endpoint only for "Demo Accounts" that will flush every bit of data.
It's easier to create data in xero than to delete it. This will allow a reset before integration tests are run. We can then seed new data and run tests as expected.
This will also allow projects with multiple developers to get their own test accounts setup and more easily match the rest of the team's.
Please vote this up.

Publish transition document from XeroAPI.Net to Xero-Net
We have coded our interface to Xero using the XeroAPI wrapper.
I am keen to use the new wrapper but have no idea how many changes I would have to make to switch over. Basically i am happy with XeroAPI but want Paged queries for Invoices.
I'd like a document with some code examples that outlined the differences so that I can decide what effort would be required to switch over.

have a SoapUI project with all the API calls INCLUDING the initial authorization.
Would love to have a SoapUI project that has examples of calls of all the APIs. This should include the initial authorization steps. A huge benefit is this shows actual REST calls and is completely language independent. It would be a huge help for those of us getting started. It would also be very easy to update as the underlying API's change.
2 votesWe have no plans to create a SoapUI project but you can easily import our OpenAPI specs to get up and running quickly. https://github.com/XeroAPI/Xero-OpenAPI
Alternatively, we do have collections for Postman and Insomnia:

support in XeroAPI.Net for VS 2012 App Store projects
Support in XeroAPI.Net for VS 2012 App Store projects
Even though you can build App Store solutions with this XeroAPI.Net library and they run, they fail certification because the cryptography calls used are not part of the windows store API. A proper additional target platform build is required.
