Ability to download all attachments for a batch of invoices or bills via the API.
Dear Xero Team,
I would like to suggest a feature for the Xero API that would help finance teams save time and improve efficiency.
Current Situation:
When processing batch payments, supporting documents (invoices and receipts) must be downloaded individually for each bill, which is time-consuming for organisations with many suppliers.
Suggested Improvement:
It would be very useful to have the ability to download all attachments for bills in a batch payment at once, ideally as a single zip file or in a structured folder.
Benefits:
1. Saves time and reduces manual work
2. Ensures all supporting documents are archived before payments
3. Minimizes risk of missing documentation for audits or internal records
Thank you for considering this suggestion. It would be a valuable addition for finance and accounting teams using Xero.

Hi Hannah, while we appreciate your sharing your feedback here, requests for Xero's API are best shared on our Developer idea forum here.
I've taken a quick look but it doesn't appear this specific request has been raised yet I'd recommend starting a new idea for this there, where we have experts and there may be other users of the API that would like to support your idea.
