Does fmAccounting Link (QuickBooks Online Edition) Support Webhooks?
Yes - fmAccounting Link (QuickBooks Online Edition) currently supports the following QuickBooks Online event triggers:
- Customers: create and update
- Invoices: create and update
- Payments: create and update
You can easily add support for additional event triggers by following the pattern we have used in our FileMaker scripts.
If you are new to webhooks we recommend using the free OttoFMS product from Proof+Geist. Once installed you can register a new webhook url in a few minutes - see the QuickBooks Online Webhooks using OttoFMS guide for instructions on setting up OttoFMS webhooks for fmAccounting Link (QuickBooks Online Edition).
We also include PHP files that can be used for receiving the QuickBooks Online webhooks for the FileMaker Data API. You can get further details and instructions on setting these up in our QuickBooks Online Webhooks Using PHP guide.
You can also use Claris Connect Webhooks instead of the supplied PHP webhook files. If you are a Claris Connect customer you can setup Webhooks in Claris Connect to receive incoming updates from QuickBooks Online. Using OttoFMS and Claris Connect is usually a much simpler process than using the supplied PHP files for the FileMaker Data API as you don't need to worry about hosting the files and dealing with web servers, PHP configuration changes, port forwarding etc.
Please visit the QuickBooks Online Webhooks using Claris Connect App guide for instructions on setting up Claris Connect Webhooks for QuickBooks Online, and the QuickBooks Online Webhooks using OttoFMS guide for instructions on setting up OttoFMS webhooks for QuickBooks Online.
