QuickBooks Overview#

The QuickBooks API allows for streamlined financial management within Pipedream's ecosystem, enabling automated accounting and data syncing across various platforms. With this API, you can manipulate invoices, manage sales receipts, handle expenses, and synchronize customer data. It's a robust tool for financial oversight and automation that can save time and reduce errors for businesses of all sizes.

Trigger Code#

import common from "../common/base.mjs";
import sampleEmit from "./test-event.mjs";

export default {
  ...common,
  key: "quickbooks-new-invoice-updated",
  name: "New Invoice Updated",
  description: "Emit new event when an invoice is updated.",
  version: "0.0.3",
  type: "source",
  dedupe: "unique",
  methods: {
    ...common.methods,
    getQuery(lastDate) {
      return `select * from Invoice Where Metadata.LastUpdatedTime >= '${lastDate}' orderby Metadata.LastUpdatedTime desc`;
    },
    getFieldList() {
      return "Invoice";
    },
    getFieldDate() {
      return "LastUpdatedTime";
    },
    getSummary(item) {
      return `New Invoice Updated: ${item.Id}`;
    },
  },
  sampleEmit,
};

Trigger Configuration#

This component may be configured based on the props defined in the component code. Pipedream automatically prompts for input values in the UI and CLI.

Label	Prop	Type	Description
QuickBooks	`quickbooks`	`app`	This component uses the QuickBooks app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`

Trigger Authentication#

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

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

com.intuit.quickbooks.accountingopenidprofileemail
