Trigger e-Invoice via API
We create invoices in Xero using Custom Connector for a number of customers, depending on customer requirements after creating the invoice we either trigger the email of the invoice (as per https://developer.xero.com/documentation/api/accounting/invoices/#emailing-an-invoice) or bring a copy of the invoice PDF back to the customers other system for sending from there.
Now that e-Invoicing has been introduced in NZ our customers want to start sending invoices as eInvoices but this can't be achieved via the API currently.
This idea was first shared on the developer uservoice more than 3 years ago https://xero.uservoice.com/forums/5528-accounting-api/suggestions/46554133-trigger-e-invoice-via-api

Hi Sarah, appreciate you raising the idea here to get attention. That said, the Developer forums where this was originally is the best place to share and receive any updates on API related requests.
I've made sure to share your feedback with the appropriate team who are looking into an update. They'll share as soon as they have news for you all on that original link. Thanks
