API Token and secret about quickeebooks

[ruckus]

Hi Tim,

You'll need to create an application which integrates with Intuit Data Services (its free to create an app but you later pay a small connection fee per client, I think its $5/month?).

See the documentation here:

https://ipp.developer.intuit.com/0010_Intuit_Partner_Platform/0050_Data_Services

When you register and create your app you will receive YOUR access token & secret. That is, you put your token & secret in the OAuth consumer call:

qb_oauth_consumer = OAuth::Consumer.new(your_consumer_key, your_consumer_secret, ..... )

The other component is the OAuth token that you get from each of your connected users, which they supply to you during the connection process, see:

https://ipp.developer.intuit.com/0010_Intuit_Partner_Platform/0025_Intuit_Anywhere

Step 2 is where you get the access token from Intuit - which you then use in your app. Once you have a connected users token & secret and with YOUR token & secret they all come together like:

token = OAuth::AccessToken.new(qb_oauth_consumer, user_access_token, user_access_secret)

At this point you can use the "token" object to make authenticated calls.

Get started by creating your App Profile: https://ipp.developer.intuit.com/0010_Intuit_Partner_Platform/0025_Intuit_Anywhere/0020_Connect/Create_An_App_Profile

I hope this helps.

Cheers,
/Cody

Thanks for the response Cody, and the steps to help get connected!!

I know I shouldn't be asking you Quickbooks questions, however I have had
trouble getting support with them. :) However for some reason I can't see
the Create an App button within my profile, do you know if there is
something I need to setup before I am allowed to create apps?The only menu
items I have are Launch my apps, Manage my apps, Edit Company Settings,
Manage Users.

Little lost to where to create apps within the app center??

Thanks again!
Tim.

No problem.

So when I go to: https://workplace.intuit.com/Account/Logon?startWithLogOn=true

and then log-in I am taken to https://workplace.intuit.com/Home/DevHome and my screen looks like: http://cl.ly/image/2Y0M410g2l2O and one can create new apps by clicking on the "Create" tab.

Do you not see this?

You should be able to create new apps - there is no holding period or anything.

Yeah that's weird, whenever I login my account it goes to
https://workplace.intuit.com/Home/MyApps instead of
https://workplace.intuit.com/Home/DevHome.

Here is a screen shot of my menu bars (Not sure if it will come through on
this github email).

Do you have any good contacts at Quickbooks I could ask. I noticed several
other people have had the same issue.

Did you create your account from here:

https://ipp.developer.intuit.com/0010_Intuit_Partner_Platform/0025_Intuit_Anywhere/0010_SignUp/0010_Register_With_IDN

and then the next section titled "Create an Intuit App Center Account" (see navigation on left)?

Give that a shot.

As for contacts at Intuit - no I dont have any. I've used the developer forums in the past, and they're alright. Fortunately I have not had to contact Intuit Support but from what I have heard, yes, it can be byzantine.

Thanks for your help Cody!! I finally keep playing around with it and
creating accounts with multiple login details and now it shows that same
top menu bar that you showed me! Not sure what I did to make it work, but
it works! :)

Thanks, and I look forward to using your gem that you have created.

First of all, thanks alot Ruckus for all your help through this code. I'm able to connect with my app in QuickBooks and complete the authorization. I wasn't able to redirect back to my application after authorization but I added oauthcall back url to my app's method. Now is working. Next, I'll save the user details, token etc into my app's DB but two more things I need to retrieve User's INVOICE and CONTACTS from their QuickBooks account. I tried your code "Quickeebooks::Online::Service::Invoice" but its not working for me, asks for two parameters and I mention key and secret but doesn't work. I copied this plugin into my app/lib as well. Seems like it can read Library quickbook->online>services>invoice but not retrieving any data. I'm sure I'm missing something?

Can you help me with it? I'll be grateful to you :-)

Thanks.

[shamabbas]

I guess problem was, Instead of realmId I was using real_id. :-) Now seems to be working.
Thanks :-)
