Stitch is an ETL that provides an integration with Xero accounting software:
https://www.stitchdata.com/integrations/xero/
I intended to use Stitch to allow the users of my app to connect their account with Xero, allowing us to store their Xero information for later analysis.
I was wondering if there is a way of setting and managing multiple Xero accounts with the same Stitch account, programatically (via an API, not via a UI).
I have seen the docs and they explain how to manually connecting your Stitch account with your (one) Xero account by manually authorizing:
https://www.stitchdata.com/docs/integrations/saas/xero#add-stitch-data-source
But I need to support multiple Xero accounts and to be able to set them up through my program.
the Xero API does support this. However depending on how the Stitch XeroAPI integration is setup they may only be allowing access to one org at a time. If you do request this feature and they decide to add it, we will work closely with them on the XeroAPI side.
Good luck. If you decide to build some kind of integration yourself shoot us a message at api#xero.com and we will help you through.

I have successfully setup my account on whatsapp developer app by meta and can send messages to 5 free users. Now the question is how can I go live with the app. I have no verified business manager account, is that necessary?
What will I need to do after verification of business account? Do I need to generate permanent access token and it would work fine?
Plus I need to know how can I send messages to groups on whatsapp?
Yes, you need to become a verified business account and all would work as you saw with the demo account, with no restriction on the number of destinations.
First 1000 conversations/month it's free, you can check details here: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/whatsapp/pricing/
Bear in mind, you will NOT be able to message groups with the WA Cloud API. If you need to, you will need to rely on custom APIs that do that. There are some available, see the one shown here:

We are working on a system which retrieves data from customers' Shopify shops and provides some services based on this data. In order to make it as convenient as possible for an end-user we would like to update this data on a daily\weekly\monthly basis.
For now we only came up with a solution of implementing unlisted app, prompt a user to provide all necessary permissions for the app to access their shops and fetch the data. But the token we get doesn't seem to be valid for a long time and we probably won't be able to reuse it a day later.
We appreciate it if you can share any success cases of implementing this kind of approach.
You provide an App to the merchant they can install using oAuth. When the merchant is prompted to approve the App, Shopify will then provide your App with a long-lived access token you can use as much as you want, for as long as you want. I use a custom App from my Partner App dashboard to create these kinds of one-off Apps. It is superior to the one where the merchant has to tick off scopes and permissions IMO.
There are two kinds of token you can ask for and receive. One is considered for offline access, or long-lived. It works for everything. It is for webhooks as an example, or other access where no person is involved. But, there is also, online access tokens! Say a person clicks into the App from Shopify to do some work. You can request an online token for them to do their thing, and that token is only good for say 24 hours.
So you have options!
I'm currently running an online community, we're now launching another community and actually intend to launch several over the course of the next months. Each community has their own auth0 client, as well as other settings such as, which features are activated per community, what are their Twitter/FB accounts, which API should it connect to, etc.
Right now this is still hardcoded, now I'm thinking to retrieve this all via API but I'm not sure how safe this to retrieve these all from the client? Ultimately these things end up in the client anyway via the node environment variables, so it shouldn't make a difference, should it?
I'm new to Xero API's and I'm trying to understand a thing.
In my Company we currently have various different “organisations” within Xero, and this number will be growing in the near future.
We also have a 3rd party web application we use for technical and management data – to which we now would like to add financial data, mostly in the form of exported Xero reports.
We had been looking at the API functionality – however as I understand it Xero is unable to grant a subset of permissions to API calls – i.e. anyone with API access would have the same level of access a standard user – so aside from being able to pull the reports we require, they would also have access to all other data, such as transactional data, account numbers, creation and deletion of invoices etc. etc. Please can you confirm whether this would be the case?
In short terms: we need to restrict the API calls to the reports only, is this possible?
If not, does Xero have a functionality where reports can be automatically exported to an external location – such as a cloud service or an FTP site or similar?
Many thanks in advance
You're correct. Once you connect an app to the API it has access to all the accounting endpoints. Payroll endpoints are the only ones that require additional scopes.
And no, unfortunately there's no way to schedule report exports either. Sorry!
Under "Scopes" the API documentation says "...the Create/Modify Surveys scope is available to Free (Basic) plans", but later contradicts that in the table showing "Platinum/Enterprise" as the minimum plan for the Create/Modify Surveys scope.
I am developing an application for a client that I believe has a Platinum account. However, I myself only have a Basic account and am reluctant to invest in a Platinum account for this small development project.
The client requires the creation a tool that generates surveys via the API, which seems pretty straightforward, except that I am unable to do so with my account. Is there some way my client can allow my account to access a development app on their account so I can test survey creation? Or could I do so myself with a Basic or Select account?
The Create/Modify Surveys scope will be moved down to the SELECT plan. Also, we will be providing developers time-limited full access to all the endpoints (except feature endpoints like benchmarks which requires the user to have bought the benchmark) when accessing their own account.
This should be available within a week or two. Check back at your app and the docs at https://developer.surveymonkey.com/ soon to see when the changes have been released.
Let us know if you have any more questions!
