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
