FreshBooks API
The FreshBooks API is a RESTful web service that allows developers to programmatically interact with FreshBooks, a cloud-based accounting and invoicing software for small businesses and freelancers. It enables integration of FreshBooks data and functionality into custom applications, such as automating invoicing, managing clients, tracking expenses, and syncing financial data with other business tools.
Developers should learn the FreshBooks API when building applications that need to automate accounting workflows, integrate with FreshBooks for small business clients, or create custom financial dashboards. Specific use cases include developing plugins for e-commerce platforms to generate invoices automatically, building mobile apps for expense tracking, or creating reporting tools that pull data from FreshBooks for analytics.
