Authentication#

Xero Accounting uses OAuth authentication. When you connect your Xero Accounting account, Pipedream will open a popup window where you can sign into Xero Accounting and grant Pipedream permission to connect to your account. Pipedream securely stores and automatically refreshes the OAuth tokens so you can easily authenticate any Xero Accounting API.

Pipedream requests the following authorization scopes when you connect your account:
