How to Access QB Synced Data?


I have customer they use QB then they sync using QB Sync Manager, How I can access the synced data? and the synced data we can view it online using QB online?


Solution

  • Intuit offers a REST API that you can use to access data synced via Sync Manager. Essentially Sync Manager places a copy of the person's QuickBooks data into the cloud, and exposes that data via a REST API.

    But -- you should know that Sync Manager has been deprecated. Intuit is no longer allowing new apps to be created for Sync Manager. If you are an existing app, you can use the existing (deprecated, legacy) APIs:

    If you're building a new app, you should NOT be using Sync Manager to read QuickBooks desktop data. Instead, you should be using the QuickBooks SDK:

    Also, note that Sync Manager has absolutely nothing to do with QuickBooks Online. QuickBooks Online is a completely separate product, with a completely separate set of APIs (the REST v3 APIs). Sync Manager does not enable you to access QuickBooks desktop data from within QuickBooks Online.
