  1. Add the ability to filter by Updated Date on Files API

    This should be similar to the Modified After parameter for invoice requests. The UpdatedDateUTC field is available int the body of the file response and users would like the ability to filter on this.

    This is in lieu of webhooks notifying users of the file API of changes, which is a separate requested feature.

  2. IncludeOnline for files API

    Currently there is no option to include the files to be sent in email to customer with object e.g. Invoice.

    Attachments API has an option includeonline to specify if we want to send the attachments in the email to the customer.

    Also there is an issue to include multiple files via the attachments API. I have added 2 files via the attachments API to invoice only one of them is showing as included online but other file need to be manually included via Xero GUI

  4. option to switch off the new "file details" when viewing a document (previously known as files)

    I would really appreciate a toggle off function for the new "file details" that pops up when clicking on a file (now known as document).

    This function doesn't suit how some of use files for our clients and it reduces the capacity of what we can view on screen and then requires us to click "back to list". A toggle off feature allows it to be optional for everyone.

    Thank you

  5. Include content-disposition header in response on GET Files/{FileId}/Content

    When downloading files via the GET Files/{FileId}/Content, there is no way to know the filename without first getting the details of the file via
    GET Files/{FileId}/

    This means 2 calls must be made when downloading files.

    As a suggestion, to reduce pressure on the servers, the Xero API should include the content-disposition and content-type headers on GET Files/{FileId}/Content

    This would be similar how we need to include those fields on POST.

    This means we could simply parse these headers to find out the file name, reducing pressure on the xero api servers.
