Authorizations
Section titled “Authorizations”Parameters
Section titled “Parameters”Header Parameters
Section titled “Header Parameters”The end user whose QuickBooks company file this request uses. Conductor-End-User-Id is accepted as an alias.
Example
eu_01j9x4m6v4c8k2t7q0r5s3w1zbHow long to wait for QuickBooks, in seconds (1–300). Conductor-Timeout-Seconds is accepted as an alias. Default 90, or 60 for the health check. If the request has not been sent by then it is canceled (504 REQUEST_TIMEOUT_NOT_SENT); if it was sent it keeps running (504 QBD_REQUEST_TIMEOUT).
Example
90Send respond-async to get 202 Accepted with a request resource immediately instead of waiting for QuickBooks.
Example
respond-asyncAsync only: the latest time, in seconds from now (10 to 86400), the request may still be sent to QuickBooks. Default 3600.
Example
3600Makes a write safe to retry. Repeating a key with the same request attaches to or replays the original instead of creating a second one. 1–255 printable ASCII characters, retained 7 days. Reusing a key with a different request returns 422 IDEMPOTENCY_KEY_REUSED.
