Invoices - anny

Create, send, and manage invoices through the admin API. For general conventions, see JSON-API Conventions. For authentication, see Authentication.

Prerequisites

Bearer token with admin access + ?o={organization_id}

Invoice Actions

Cancel an Invoice

POST /api/v1/invoices/{invoice_id}/cancel?o={org_id}

Creates a credit note and voids the invoice.

Mark as Paid

Mark a SENT invoice as paid without processing a payment:

PUT /api/v1/invoices/{invoice_id}/set-paid?o={org_id}

{
  "send_notification": true
}

Set send_notification to true to email the customer a payment confirmation.

Change Recipient

Transfers an invoice to a different customer. This cancels the original invoice and creates a new copy for the new recipient:

POST /api/v1/invoices/{invoice_id}/change-recipient?o={org_id}

{
  "customer_id": "new-customer-uuid"
}

Creating an Invoice

All examples below assume BASE_URL = https://{your-domain}/api/v1.

Find a Customer by Email

GET {BASE_URL}/customers?o={org_id}&filter[email]=jane@example.com&include=address

The email filter performs an exact (case-insensitive) match.For a fuzzy name/email/phone search, use the search filter instead:

GET {BASE_URL}/customers?o={org_id}&filter[search]=jane&include=address

Filter by Custom Field

Custom fields are referenced by their UUID. See Custom Field Filters for the full syntax and supported operators.

GET {BASE_URL}/customers?o={org_id}&filter[custom_fields][{FIELD_UUID}][f_id]={FIELD_UUID}&filter[custom_fields][{FIELD_UUID}][o]==&filter[custom_fields][{FIELD_UUID}][v]=Premium

For checkbox fields, pass true / false as the value. For multi-select fields, the in operator accepts comma-separated values.

Create a Customer (if not found)

POST {BASE_URL}/customers?o={org_id}

{
  "data": {
    "type": "customers",
    "attributes": {
      "given_name": "Jane",
      "family_name": "Doe",
      "email": "jane@example.com",
      "company": "Acme Inc",
      "locale": "de",
      "mobile": "+4917612345678"
    }
  }
}

Required: email, localeCreate the customer’s address as a separate resource:

POST {BASE_URL}/addresses?o={org_id}

{
  "data": {
    "type": "addresses",
    "attributes": {
      "name": "Jane Doe",
      "street_address": "Hauptstraße 42",
      "zip_code": "50667",
      "city": "Köln",
      "country_code": "DE"
    },
    "relationships": {
      "addressable": {
        "data": { "type": "customers", "id": "{customer_id}" }
      }
    }
  }
}

Create the Invoice (draft)

POST {BASE_URL}/invoices?o={org_id}

{
  "data": {
    "type": "invoices",
    "attributes": {
      "currency": "EUR",
      "recipient": "Acme Inc\nJane Doe\nHauptstraße 42\n50667 Köln",
      "calculate_from_net": true
    },
    "relationships": {
      "customer": {
        "data": { "type": "customers", "id": "{customer_id}" }
      }
    }
  }
}

Customer linking

Method	When to use
`relationships.customer` in the request body	Manual invoices — pass the customer ID directly
`relationships.reference` (order, subscription, booking pass)	Backend derives customer from the referenced entity
Neither	Create without a customer; link one later via PATCH

When the invoice is sent, the backend snapshots recipient and buyer_data from the customer so the invoice stays valid even if the profile changes later.

Attributes

Attribute	Type	Required	Notes
`currency`	string	yes	e.g. `"EUR"`, `"USD"`
`recipient`	string	no	Free-text address block; auto-filled from customer on send if blank
`invoicing_party`	string	no	Your company’s address block
`calculate_from_net`	boolean	no	Default `false`. Set `true` when entering net amounts
`issued_at`	date	no	Required when status ≠ `draft`
`due_date`	date	no
`notes`	string	no	Appears on the invoice
`vat_number`	string	no
`is_quote`	boolean	no	Set `true` to create a quote instead
`number`	string	no	Must be unique within org if provided

Add Line Items

POST {BASE_URL}/items?o={org_id}&calculate_from_net=true

{
  "data": {
    "type": "items",
    "attributes": {
      "title": "Consulting — March 2026",
      "quantity": 10,
      "single_net_amount": 150.00,
      "tax_rate": 19
    },
    "relationships": {
      "document": {
        "data": { "type": "invoices", "id": "{invoice_id}" }
      }
    }
  }
}

Attribute	Type	Required	Notes
`title`	string	yes	Max 185 chars
`quantity`	integer	yes
`tax_rate`	number	yes	≥ 0 (e.g. `19` for 19%)
