Xero API Integration Skill

Secure, read-only integration with Xero accounting software for financial data extraction and analysis.

When to Use

Activate this skill when the task requires:

• Extracting financial data from Xero
• Generating accounting reports
• Analyzing transaction history
• Auditing chart of accounts
• Reviewing asset registers

⚠️ CRITICAL CONSTRAINT

READ-ONLY OPERATION

• Only read scopes are authorized
• NEVER modify any Xero data
• All changes are recommendations only

OAuth 2.0 Authentication

Rate Limiting

Best Practices:

• Implement exponential backoff
• Cache responses where appropriate
• Use pagination efficiently
• Monitor rate limit headers

Error Handling

Security Requirements

1. Token Storage

- Encrypt tokens at rest - Never log access tokens - Secure refresh token storage

1. API Calls

- HTTPS only - Validate SSL certificates - Log API calls (not tokens)

1. Authorization

- Request minimal scopes - Verify tenant access - Handle revocation gracefully

Output Data Structure

  accounts: Account[];

  reports: {
    trialBalance: Map<FY, Report>;

Financial Year Handling

// Australian Financial Year: 1 July - 30 June
function getFinancialYear(date: Date): string {
  const month = date.getMonth(); // 0-11
  const year = date.getFullYear();

  if (month >= 6) { // July onwards
    return `FY${year}-${(year + 1).toString().slice(2)}`;
  } else {
    return `FY${year - 1}-${year.toString().slice(2)}`;
  }
}

// FY2024-25: 1 Jul 2024 - 30 Jun 2025
