Send an invoice by email
Scopeinvoices:writeSends the invoice by email, attaching its PDF by default. When no recipient is given, the addresses configured on the customer are used.
API Key authentication.
Format: Authorization: Bearer beel_sk_<key>
Scopes: API Keys use the same scopes as OAuth2 tokens. Each key is created with
specific scopes that limit which endpoints it can access. The required scope for each
endpoint is documented in the operation's security section under OAuth2.
Obtaining Keys: API Keys are managed from the BeeL dashboard
Security: API Keys are secret credentials. Do not share them or store them in source code
In: header
Path Parameters
NIF (company) the operation acts on. It is the only source of context: the account that owns it is derived from it, and the BeeL-Active-Company header plays no part. A NIF you do not reach answers 403, and so does a NIF that does not exist, so the existence of a NIF in another account is never disclosed.
uuidInvoice ID
uuidHeader Parameters
Idempotency key to prevent duplicates in sensitive operations.
- Any unique client-generated string (e.g. an order id). A UUID also works but is not required
- Allowed characters: letters, digits,
_and-(max 255 chars) - If the same key is sent twice, the result of the first operation is returned
- Keys expire 24 hours after processing
The key is scoped per user and environment, and bound to the request body, so retrying after a network timeout replays the stored response instead of repeating the operation.
| Status | Code | When |
|---|---|---|
400 | INVALID_IDEMPOTENCY_KEY | The key breaks the format rules above. |
409 | IDEMPOTENCY_KEY_PROCESSING | The first request is still in flight. Wait and retry with the same key. |
409 | IDEMPOTENCY_KEY_MISMATCH | The key was already used with a different body. Use a new key. |
^[a-zA-Z0-9_-]+$length <= 255If not specified, uses the customer's email
CC recipients. Copied addresses count as recipients of the message: they are subject
to the same sending restrictions and to the same quota as the addresses in recipients.
When omitted, the CC addresses configured in the sender's email defaults apply; send an
empty array to deliver the message without any copy.
Email subject (optional, if not specified uses a default)
1 <= length <= 200Custom message (optional, added before standard message)
1 <= length <= 2000trueAttach a ZIP archive (suplidos_<invoice-number>.zip) containing the PDFs of the source invoices referenced by the invoice's SUPLIDO consolidation lines (source_invoice_ids). Each PDF inside the ZIP is named <invoice-number>_<issuer-tax-id>.pdf. Requires attach_pdf: true (the ZIP accompanies the invoice PDF). Access to sources owned by managed accounts is re-checked at send time with the same rules as issuing; the request fails with an actionable error — never a partial ZIP — if the invoice has no consolidation sources (ATTACH_SOURCE_INVOICES_NO_SOURCES), a source is not reachable (ATTACH_SOURCE_INVOICE_UNAVAILABLE), a source has no generated PDF (ATTACH_SOURCE_PDF_MISSING), or the ZIP exceeds the size limit (ATTACH_SOURCE_ZIP_TOO_LARGE).

}Export the invoices of a company POST
Produces a spreadsheet with the invoices of this company, either the ones named in `invoice_ids` or the ones matching `filters` (max 5000). The format travels in the body, so adding a new one never adds a route. The file is returned inline.
Send several invoices in one email POST
Sends one email carrying the PDFs of several invoices of this company as attachments. At least one recipient is required: no address is inferred from any profile.
