OpenAPI Specification

sevdesk-invoice-api-openapi.yml Raw ↑
openapi: 3.0.3
info:
  title: sevdesk CheckAccount Invoice API
  description: 'The sevdesk API is a RESTful interface to the sevdesk cloud accounting and invoicing platform. Every function and every piece of data available in the sevdesk web application can also be driven through this API - contacts, invoices, orders, credit notes, vouchers (receipts), bank check accounts and transactions, parts (inventory), and tags. All requests are authenticated with a per-administrator API token, passed as the value of an `Authorization` header. Nested resources can be pulled in with the `embed` query parameter.


    This OpenAPI document is a grounded, representative subset authored by API Evangelist from sevdesk''s official OpenAPI specification (openapi 3.0.0, reported API version 2.0.0, served at https://my.sevdesk.de/api/v1). The paths, HTTP methods, operationIds, and the apiKey security scheme are taken directly from the official specification; request and response schemas here are simplified representations of the far richer official models. See review.yml for confirmed-vs-modeled detail.'
