FreshBooks

FreshBooks small-business invoicing

FreshBooks is the small-business accounting and invoicing platform — built for service-business owners (consultants, agencies, contractors) who need invoicing and bookkeeping without the QuickBooks complexity. Tiny Command exposes three actions, no triggers (FreshBooks webhooks for invoice-paid, client-created, expense-created are configured per-account in admin Webhooks; point at a Tiny Command webhook trigger URL): Create Client (the customer record — name, email, billing address, currency, tax fields), Create Invoice (with line items, tax, due date, optional auto-send-email toggle), List Invoices (with filters by status, client, date range). The connection uses FreshBooks OAuth. The client-then-invoice pattern is the standard workflow shape: lookup the FreshBooks client by email first (via List Clients HTTP action), Create Client if not found, then Create Invoice referencing the client ID. FreshBooks's account_id maps to the FreshBooks UI's "business" — multi-business users need the right account_id per call (the picker handles this at action setup).

Before you build

Three things worth knowing.

Filter at the trigger

Tiny Command counts a run the moment a trigger fires. Filtering early means only matching events spend your usage budget.

Authorize once, reuse anywhere

Connect FreshBooks once and every workflow on your account can use its triggers and actions. You don't have to re-auth per workflow.

No JSON to read

Every FreshBooks field shows up in the visual picker for downstream nodes. The raw payload is there for power users, optional for everyone else.
