I've gotten frustrated with the .NET DevKit and am now considering switching my app over to XML. But I'm still having trouble figuring out how to perform very basic queries.
How can I retrieve a QBD Sales Order by the order number? This is the "Sales Order Number" in the QBD UI, "RefNumber" in the SDK, and "DocNumber" in IPP.
Just in case somebody needs me to explain the use case for looking up a record by the human-readable unique ID: I'm integrating with a system where we don't have the luxury of storing a QB transaction ID after importing a sales order. So if that system wants to query QB later to check the status of a sales order, it needs to do so by that system's unique order #.
I already have links to all the documentation; thanks. I just need to know how to perform this query. Similarly, I need to do it for Invoices and POs.
I need the same thing for Items, the use case being that if we're importing items from another system, we need to query the QB item list by name to see if we already have that item in QB.
For ITEMS, you can use ItemConsolidated and a NameContains filter. For example, the XML would look something like:
POST https://services.intuit.com/sb/itemconsolidated/v2/<realmID>
...
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ItemConsolidatedQuery xmlns="http://www.intuit.com/sb/cdm/v2"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.intuit.com/sb/cdm/v2 RestDataFilter.xsd ">
<NameContains>Your item name goes here</NameContains>
</ItemConsolidatedQuery>
It won't be perfect, because Intuit only supports "NameContains" (the item name contains the string you specify) rather than "NameEquals", but you can then loop through what you get back and filter it client-side from there.
For SALES ORDERS, unfortunately, Intuit Data Services doesn't support querying by DocNumber at this time.
Instead, a work-around for your situation might be to query for all sales orders, and then cache the Id and DocNumber value of each in your application. When you need to look something up, look up the Id in the cache, and then query by Id value. It's not pretty... but it's really the only way you can do what you're describing.

I am trying to extract a large amount of details out of our Eloqua system using it's API and got this API to work perfectly for single IDs: https://docs.oracle.com/en/cloud/saas/marketing/eloqua-rest-api/op-api-rest-1.0-data-contact-id-get.html
The problem is that I need to run this for a large number of IDs and it will require alot in order to run it for the entire population. Is there any bulk APIs that can extract all of the following details out of Eloqua/Contact for the entire population? I don't see any on that pages documentation that meet this need under the Bulk section.
contactid, company, employees, company_revenue, business_phone, email_address, web_domain, date_created, date_modified, address_1, address_2, city, state_or_province, zip_or_postal_code, mobile_phone, first_name, last_name, title
It's a multi-step process with the Bulk API, typically in the following fashion:
Get a list of the current internal field names - useful for creating your export definition
Create an export definition and post it here. There is a useful example on the page, you do not need a filter criteria. Store the export ID somewhere
Using your export definition id, create a sync. It will gather the data in the background and prepare it for you. Take note of the sync ID provided in the initial response.
Check on the sync status with your sync ID here. It should only take a couple of minutes - and there is a callback url option as well in the previous step, if you don't want to keep polling.
Once your data is ready, use that sync id and request the data. Depending on how many rows were retrieved, you might need to paginate through the results using the offset query param. By default it will give you JSON, but I usually choose CSV (specify in the header).
If you need updated data, feel free to create a new sync using the same export definition id. You do not need to create a new export definition each time.
I'm trying to fetch details from VSTS using VSTS query API. So to get all Portfolio Epics I created a custom query and used its ID to get that in JSON format. the query looks like this
https://dev.azure.com/{organization}/{project}/{team}/_apis/wit/wiql/{id}?api-version=5.0-preview.2
But the issue is its not giving me many details about each of the work items in JSON. It only lists the ID and URL. Like this
WorkItems:[
{ID:234,URL:"workitemurl"},
{ID:235,URL:"workitemurl"},
{ID:236,URL:"workitemurl"},
...
]
So if I need more details about an item I need to execute those individual URl for each PE and thus I can get its details. instead of I am just checking is there is any way of getting an ID (keyedinID of each work item along with the ID and URL) like this. Please note KID is a field if we execute the URL separately. So to avoid that extra process, I would like to get that along with the WorkItems.
WorkItems:[
{ID:234,URL:"workitemurl",KID:002},
{ID:235,URL:"workitemurl",KID:023},
{ID:236,URL:"workitemurl",KID:033},
...
]
So how can we make this possible?
The Web UI uses a different API to get query results (/_api/_wit/_query), which allows query+data in a single pass. This is an old __v5 type call, which means it's considered internal.
The proper way to do this now is to first do the query as you're doing it right now and then call /_api/wit/workitems?ids=1,2,3,4 using the IDs from the references you got from the first call. That will also allow you to load the details dynamically and in small batches which will result in a more responsive UI.

I want to generate an IDOC file to make shop orders availabe to the R/3 SAP System. My question is concerning BELNR in E2EDK01. As we dont have the possibility to use Webservices and BAPI, we only make the data available via files.
Actual questions are:
Do i yet need a [BELNR] in the IDOC file?
If yes, where to get this [BELNR] from?
E2EDK01-BELNR is the order number of the ordering party, normally it is not needed, but useful.
Example:
The customer sends an order and is unsure if the order received you. So he sends the order again. Now you have two similar orders. You can't know, if there are two similar orders or if you have two idocs for the same order.
If E2EDK01-BELNR is filled with the order number of the customer system, you can decide how to proceed (e.g. ignore the 2nd idoc).
If I understand your question correct, you create the order out of your shop system. You could offer an (optional) field like 'Your order number' and use this. If the same order number (per customer) is used again you can make a warning ("Order X is already ordered").
If you don't want this field you could use the session id to identify double postings.
I wrote a program that downloads orders from a website and creates invoices using the SDK.
A few products are listed as Groups in QuickBooks, so when adding them to the invoice, I can't list the price.
If IList.Item(x).Type = 2 Then
Dim ORInvoiceLineAddListElement2 As IORInvoiceLineAdd
ORInvoiceLineAddListElement2 = newInvoice.ORInvoiceLineAddList.Append()
ORInvoiceLineAddListElement2.InvoiceLineGroupAdd.ItemGroupRef.FullName.SetValue(IList.Item(x).FullName)
ORInvoiceLineAddListElement2.InvoiceLineGroupAdd.Quantity.SetValue(IList.Item(x).Quantity)
'ORInvoiceLineAddListElement2.InvoiceLineGroupAdd.Desc.SetValue(IList.Item(x).DESC)
End If
This will input into QuickBooks just fine, however, the price will be based on a retail customer, even if the customer class is set to wholesale. I know that the customer class is correct because everything else shows up correctly in the generated invoice.
Any suggestions on what i could try to get this group item priced correctly?
Thanks for your help!!!
QuickBooks Class codes have nothing at all to do with pricing. They have no effect what-so-ever on pricing in any form or manner.
What makes you think setting the Class should change pricing in any way?
I was having the same issue. what is happening is the Group line items are being assigned the Default Price from the Items table. shouldn't have anything to do with the Class. I did find the following support answer which seems to apply to both Desktop and Online versions of QuickBooks:
"The SDK does not currently support adjusting the price of group items when adding an invoice, even though the default UI in QuickBooks allows this. You can modify an invoice and change the line item amounts, so you would need to first call create the add, read the response to get the transaction id and edit sequence, then do an Invoice Mod request on the invoice to set the rates that you want."

I am using the Twitter Search API and I can't understand the id field of a tweet.
For example here is one: <id>tag:search.twitter.com,2005:1990561514</id>. The real ID is the final number part, right? Why doesn't Twitter already provide this in a single element? And, why is there a year of 2005on the ID field? Is that the ID of that year and the following year tweets get an ID recounted to zero? Is the ID indexed to the year?
I am asking all this stuff, because I am going to use the option of since_id to retrive new tweets. If the ID isn't really unique and depends on the year, it won't work as expected.
Thanks.
The tag is unique - but parts of it are redundant.
tag:search.twitter.com,2005:1990561514
Obviously, search.twitter.com is the URL from where you requested the document.
The ,2005 is constant. As far as I can tell, it has never changed since the service was launched. While there's no official documentation, I would guess that it refers to the ATOM specification namespace - http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom"
Finally, the long number is the Tweet's status ID. It will always be unique and can be used for the since_id.
What you will need to do is split the string, and just use the number after the colon as your ID.
I believe you are doing something wrong. If you look at all of the example results from the Twitter Search API, none of the id fields are formatted like this one you are showing.
For example:
http://search.twitter.com/search.json?q=%40twitterapi%20-via
Also, if you check out the example requests page, you will see that all of the id fields have normal formats, i.e.:
"id":122032448266698752
Update:
Now that I know you are using the atom feed, I can see where the seemingly oddly formatted element comes from. See this article on avoiding duplicates in atom feeds. Another helpful article.
Basically, atom feeds REQUIRE a unique id for each element in a feed. Some feeds use the "tag" scheme to ensure uniqueness. This format is actually pretty common in atom feeds and many frameworks use it by default. For instance, the RoR AtomFeedHelper (which might even be what Twitter uses) specifies the default format to be:
"tag:#{request.host},#{options}:#{request.fullpath.split(".")}"
