Use this API in your project

Start working with "Accounting API" right away by using this ready-to-use mock sample. API mocking can greatly speed up your application development by removing all the tedious tasks or issues: API key provisioning, account creation, unplanned downtime, etc.
It also helps reduce your dependency on third-party APIs and improves your integration tests' quality and reliability by accounting for random failures, slow response time, etc.

Description

Introduction
The Xero Accounting API is a RESTful web service and uses the OAuth (v1.0a) protocol to authenticate 3rd party applications. The Accounting API exposes accounting and related functions of the main Xero application and can be used for a variety of purposes such as creating transactions like invoices and credit notes, right through to extracting accounting data via our reports endpoint.

Paylocity API

paylocity.com
For general questions and support of the API, contact: [email protected]
Overview
Paylocity Web Services API is an externally facing RESTful Internet protocol. The Paylocity API uses HTTP verbs and a RESTful endpoint structure. OAuth 2.0 is used as the API Authorization framework. Request and response payloads are formatted as JSON.
Paylocity supports v1 and v2 versions of its API endpoints. v1, while supported, won't be enhanced with additional functionality. For direct link to v1 documentation, please click here. For additional resources regarding v1/v2 differences and conversion path, please contact [email protected].
Setup
Paylocity will provide the secure client credentials and set up the scope (type of requests and allowed company numbers). You will receive the unique client id, secret, and Paylocity public key for the data encryption. The secret will expire in 365 days.
Paylocity will send you an e-mail 10 days prior to the expiration date for the current secret. If not renewed, the second e-mail notification will be sent 5 days prior to secret's expiration. Each email will contain the code necessary to renew the client secret.
You can obtain the new secret by calling API endpoint using your current not yet expired credentials and the code that was sent with the notification email. For details on API endpoint, please see Client Credentials section.
Both the current secret value and the new secret value will be recognized during the transition period. After the current secret expires, you must use the new secret.
If you were unable to renew the secret via API endpoint, you can still contact Service and they will email you new secret via secure email.
When validating the request, Paylocity API will honor the defaults and required fields set up for the company default New Hire Template as defined in Web Pay.
Authorization
Paylocity Web Services API uses OAuth2.0 Authentication with JSON Message Format.
All requests of the Paylocity Web Services API require a bearer token which can be obtained by authenticating the client with the Paylocity Web Services API via OAuth 2.0.
The client must request a bearer token from the authorization endpoint:
auth-server for production: https://api.paylocity.com/IdentityServer/connect/token
auth-server for testing: https://apisandbox.paylocity.com/IdentityServer/connect/token
Paylocity reserves the right to impose rate limits on the number of calls made to our APIs. Changes to API features/functionality may be made at anytime with or without prior notice.
Authorization Header
The request is expected to be in the form of a basic authentication request, with the "Authorization" header containing the client-id and client-secret. This means the standard base-64 encoded user:password, prefixed with "Basic" as the value for the Authorization header, where user is the client-id and password is the client-secret.
Content-Type Header
The "Content-Type" header is required to be "application/x-www-form-urlencoded".
Additional Values
The request must post the following form encoded values within the request body:
granttype = clientcredentials
scope = WebLinkAPI
Responses
Success will return HTTP 200 OK with JSON content:
{
"access_token": "xxx",
"expires_in": 3600,
"token_type": "Bearer"
}
Encryption
Paylocity uses a combination of RSA and AES cryptography. As part of the setup, each client is issued a public RSA key.
Paylocity recommends the encryption of the incoming requests as additional protection of the sensitive data. Clients can opt-out of the encryption during the initial setup process. Opt-out will allow Paylocity to process unencrypted requests.
The Paylocity Public Key has the following properties:
2048 bit key size
PKCS1 key format
PEM encoding
Properties
key (base 64 encoded): The AES symmetric key encrypted with the Paylocity Public Key. It is the key used to encrypt the content. Paylocity will decrypt the AES key using RSA decryption and use it to decrypt the content.
iv (base 64 encoded): The AES IV (Initialization Vector) used when encrypting the content.
content (base 64 encoded): The AES encrypted request. The key and iv provided in the secureContent request are used by Paylocity for decryption of the content.
We suggest using the following for the AES:
CBC cipher mode
PKCS7 padding
128 bit block size
256 bit key size
Encryption Flow
Generate the unencrypted JSON payload to POST/PUT
Encrypt this JSON payload using your own key and IV (NOT with the Paylocity public key)
RSA encrypt the key you used in step 2 with the Paylocity Public Key, then, base64 encode the result
Base64 encode the IV used to encrypt the JSON payload in step 2
Put together a "securecontent" JSON object:
{
'secureContent' : {
'key' : -- RSA-encrypted & base64 encoded key from step 3,
'iv' : -- base64 encoded iv from step 4
'content' -- content encrypted with your own key from step 2, base64 encoded
}
}
Sample Example
{
"secureContent": {
"key": "eS3aw6H/qzHMJ00gSi6gQ3xa08DPMazk8BFY96Pd99ODA==",
"iv": "NLyXMGq9svw0XO5aI9BzWw==",
"content": "gAEOiQltO1w+LzGUoIK8FiYbU42hug94EasSl7N+Q1w="

Webhooks
Webhooks allow you to build or set up Envoice Apps which subscribe to invoice activities.
When one of those events is triggered, we'll send a HTTP POST payload to the webhook's configured URL.
Webhooks can be used to update an external invoice data storage.
In order to use webhooks visit this link and add upto 10 webhook urls that will return status 200 in order to signal that the webhook is working.
All nonworking webhooks will be ignored after a certain period of time and several retry attempts.
If after several attempts the webhook starts to work, we will send you all activities, both past and present, in chronological order.
The payload of the webhook is in format:
