Xero

🚀 Quickstart

Connect to Xero with Nango and see data flow in 2 minutes.

Create the integration

In Nango (free signup), go to Integrations -> Configure New Integration -> Xero. Nango doesn’t have a Nango-managed OAuth app for Xero yet. You’ll need to set up your own by following the setup guide linked below. After that, make sure to add the OAuth client ID, secret, and scopes in the integration settings in Nango.

Authorize Xero

Go to Connections -> Add Test Connection -> Authorize, then log in to Xero. Later, you’ll let your users do the same directly from your app.

Call the Xero API

Let’s make your first request to the Xero API. Replace the placeholders below with your Environment API key, integration ID, and connection ID:

cURL
Node

curl "https://api.nango.dev/proxy/api.xro/2.0/Contacts" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer <NANGO-API-KEY>" \
  -H "Provider-Config-Key: <INTEGRATION-ID>" \
  -H "Connection-Id: <CONNECTION-ID>"

Install Nango’s backend SDK with npm i @nangohq/node. Then run:

import { Nango } from '@nangohq/node';

const nango = new Nango({ apiKey: '<NANGO-API-KEY>' });

const res = await nango.get({
    endpoint: '/api.xro/2.0/Contacts',
    providerConfigKey: '<INTEGRATION-ID>',
    connectionId: '<CONNECTION-ID>'
});

console.log(res.data);

Or fetch credentials with the Node SDK or API.✅ You’re connected! Check the Logs tab in Nango to inspect requests.
