Digits (via Apideck)
Access Digits through Apideck's Accounting unified API — one of 34 Accounting connectors that share the same method surface. Code you write here ports to Access Financials, Acumatica, banqUP and 30 other Accounting connectors by changing a single serviceId string. Apideck handles auth, pagination, rate limiting, and retries so you don't write per-tenant Digits plumbing.
Beta connector. Digits is currently in beta on Apideck. Expect partial resource coverage and occasional mapping gaps. Always verify coverage (see below) and fall back to the Proxy API for unsupported operations.

When to use this skill
Activate this skill when the user explicitly wants to work with Digits — for example, "create an invoice in Digits" or "reconcile payments in Digits". This skill teaches the agent:
- Which Apideck unified API covers Digits (Accounting)
- The correct
serviceIdto pass on every call (digits) - Digits-specific auth and coverage caveats
For the full method surface (parameters, pagination, filtering), use your language SDK skill:
apideck-node,apideck-python,apideck-dotnet,apideck-java,apideck-go,apideck-php, orapideck-rest
For the raw OpenAPI spec:
- Accounting: https://specs.apideck.com/accounting.yml · API Explorer
Minimal example (TypeScript)
import { Apideck } from "@apideck/unify";
const apideck = new Apideck({
apiKey: process.env.APIDECK_API_KEY,
appId: process.env.APIDECK_APP_ID,
consumerId: "your-consumer-id",
});
// List invoices in Digits
const { data } = await apideck.accounting.invoices.list({
serviceId: "digits",
});
Portable across 34 Accounting connectors
The Apideck Accounting unified API exposes the same methods for every connector in its catalog. Switching from Digits to another Accounting connector is a one-string change — no rewrite, no new SDK.
// Today — Digits
await apideck.accounting.invoices.list({ serviceId: "digits" });
// Tomorrow — same code, different connector
await apideck.accounting.invoices.list({ serviceId: "access-financials" });
await apideck.accounting.invoices.list({ serviceId: "acumatica" });
This is the compounding advantage of using Apideck over integrating Digits directly: code against the unified Accounting API once, gain access to every connector in it. New connectors Apideck adds become available to your app without code changes.
Digits via Apideck Accounting
Digits is a modern US-focused accounting platform built for real-time financial visibility, popular with startups and venture-backed companies. Apideck coverage focuses on reporting and ledger views.
Entity mapping
| Digits entity | Apideck Accounting resource |
|---|---|
| Account | ledger-accounts |
| Journal Entry | journal-entries |
| Customer | customers |
| Vendor | suppliers |
| Dimension | tracking-categories |
| P&L, Balance Sheet | profit-and-loss, balance-sheet |
Coverage highlights
- ✅ Ledger accounts (chart of accounts)
- ✅ Journal entries
- ✅ Customers, suppliers
- ✅ Financial reports (P&L, Balance Sheet)
- ✅ Dimensions (tracking categories)
- ❌ Invoices, bills, payments — Digits is primarily a reporting/analytics layer on top of QuickBooks/Xero; transactional writes go through those source systems
- ❌ AI-driven insights — Digits' signature feature; proprietary, not exposed
Auth notes
- Type: OAuth 2.0, managed by Apideck Vault
- Workspace binding: one Digits workspace per connection.
- Upstream source: Digits typically syncs from QuickBooks or Xero. For transactional writes, use those connectors directly; use Digits for unified reporting views.
Example: fetch P&L for the quarter
const { data } = await apideck.accounting.profitAndLoss.get({
serviceId: "digits",
filter: { start_date: "2026-01-01", end_date: "2026-03-31" },
});
Escape hatch: Proxy API
When an endpoint isn't covered by the Accounting unified API, use Apideck's Proxy to call Digits directly — Apideck injects auth headers and handles token refresh. Set x-apideck-downstream-url to the target endpoint on Digits's own API:
curl 'https://unify.apideck.com/proxy' \
-H "Authorization: Bearer ${APIDECK_API_KEY}" \
-H "x-apideck-app-id: ${APIDECK_APP_ID}" \
-H "x-apideck-consumer-id: ${CONSUMER_ID}" \
-H "x-apideck-service-id: digits" \
-H "x-apideck-downstream-url: <target endpoint on Digits>" \
-H "x-apideck-downstream-method: GET"
See Digits's API docs for available endpoints.
Sibling connectors
Other Accounting connectors that share this unified API surface (same method signatures, just change serviceId):
access-financials (beta), acumatica (beta), banqup (beta), campfire (beta), clearbooks-uk (beta), dualentry, exact-online, exact-online-nl (beta), and 25 more.
