Recurring Invoices

Pause a recurring invoice

Scopeinvoices:write

Deprecated. Use PUT /v1/companies/{company_id}/recurring-invoices/{recurring_invoice_id}/status with {"status": "PAUSED"}, which behaves identically.

Stops automatic generation, keeping the schedule configuration intact.

POST
/v1/recurring-invoices/{recurring_invoice_id}/pause

Authorization

AuthorizationBearer <token>

Keys are prefixed beel_sk_, and each one carries the scopes it was created with: a key short of the scope an operation needs is answered 403. The scope an operation requires is shown next to its title, and the full catalogue lives in the Scopes reference.

Keys are created from the BeeL dashboard. They are secret credentials: do not share them or commit them to source control.

In: header

Path Parameters

recurring_invoice_idstring
Formatuuid

Header Parameters

Idempotency-Key?string

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.

StatusCodeWhen
400INVALID_IDEMPOTENCY_KEYThe key breaks the format rules above.
409IDEMPOTENCY_KEY_PROCESSINGThe first request is still in flight. Wait and retry with the same key.
409IDEMPOTENCY_KEY_MISMATCHThe key was already used with a different body. Use a new key.

Skip the next generation POST

**Deprecated.** Use `POST /v1/companies/{company_id}/recurring-invoices/{recurring_invoice_id}/skip`, which behaves identically. Skips the next scheduled generation and advances the generation date to the following period. Nothing is issued.

Resume a paused recurring invoice POST

**Deprecated.** Use `PUT /v1/companies/{company_id}/recurring-invoices/{recurring_invoice_id}/status` with `{"status": "ACTIVE"}`, which behaves identically. Resumes automatic generation of a paused template and recalculates the next generation date from today.
