list_organisationsread-only

List the accounting organisations (Xero, Sage, Reckon, or QuickBooks) connected to the authenticated Boxkite account.

start_exportcan modify

Starts a read-only export of one accounting organisation's data (Xero, Sage, Reckon, or QuickBooks). Costs $39 per organisation: when payment is outstanding the response is status 'awaiting_payment' with a Stripe checkoutUrl for the user to complete in a browser, and the export begins once that payment settles. This is not a status endpoint: it reports only the state at creation, and repeat calls

list_exportsread-only

List one-off exports (newest first), optionally for one organisation. Use this to find an export after payment and to poll its status until it is 'ready'. Side-effect free: it never starts a new export or charges anything. Each entry carries progress, parkedUntil and pollAfterSeconds.

get_export_statusread-only

Reports the state of one export: status (queued | running | ready | failed) and whether its download is available yet. Also returns progress {discovered, transferred, percent}; parkedUntil; and pollAfterSeconds, the interval after which this status is expected to have changed. A large export runs for hours, so pollAfterSeconds can be a long interval. parkedUntil is a timestamp, present whenever wo

get_export_manifestread-only

See what an IN-PROGRESS export contains so far (entities included, per-entity record/file counts, and per-file checksums), growing as discovery and downloading proceed. The per-file list is paged: check filesPage.hasMore and pass fileOffset to walk it. Once the export finishes, this returns status 'complete' with a pointer instead of a list, because the full manifest travels inside the ZIP as mani

get_export_mappingread-only

For an IN-PROGRESS export, get the mapping of each file discovered so far to the accounting object it represents or is attached to (e.g. which invoice a receipt PDF belongs to). Paged (default 200 files, max 500): check filesPage.hasMore and pass fileOffset for the next page; the `objects` map covers only the files on the current page. Once the export finishes, this returns status 'complete' with

get_download_urlread-only

Returns a short-lived signed URL for the export ZIP, valid within the export's 7-day retention window, along with byteSize (the archive's size in bytes, null if unavailable) and fileCount. These archives range from a few MB to several GB. The archive contains the exported files plus manifest.json (every file with its sha256) and Info/ (the file-to-Xero-object mapping).
