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.

Quick facts

• Apideck serviceId: digits
• Unified API: Accounting
• Auth type: oauth2
• Status: beta
• Gotchas: page
• Digits docs: https://digits.com
• Homepage: https://www.digits.com/

At a glance

• Implementation difficulty: moderate — Self-service signup and sandbox — app approval required before other organisations can install your app
• Vendor partnership required: no — No partner programme, certification or marketplace listing to complete — a free developer account is all you need.
• Apideck-managed credentials: available — OAuth consent shows "Apideck" as the requesting application. Register your own Digits app for production.
• Account type required: Digits account (the connecting organisation's own Digits ledger)
• Consumer access level: Any user who can authorise third-party access to the Digits organisation — Digits documents no minimum role.
• Sandbox: available (signup) — Free, resettable Developer Sandbox with demo data, one per developer account. No live bank connections, and collaborator invites are disabled.
• Costs: No cost for API access — Digits charges no fees, usage paywalls or marketplace commissions (verified June 2026).
• Rate limits: 180 requests/minute per client ID and 60 requests/minute per access token. Approved production apps can request higher limits.
• Authentication: Authorization Code flow.
• Webhooks: No webhooks — neither native nor virtual; poll for changes. Digits has a webhook contract of its own, but it is in private beta and unused here.

Important to know:

• Connecting your own Digits businesses works from day one. Installing your app into any organisation outside your own requires Digits to approve it first, requested by email.
• The Digits Connect API launched publicly in October 2025 and its surface is still expanding, so expect capability to grow between releases.
• Uninstalling your app from an organisation revokes its tokens — that connection stops working until the consumer authorises again.

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:

1. Which Apideck unified API covers Digits (Accounting)
2. The correct serviceId to pass on every call (digits)
3. 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, or apideck-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

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.
