PAYHAWK DEVELOPER API

Develop on top of the platform finance teams trust

The API is mainly used for accounting and ERP integrations that pull in data from Payhawk on a periodic basis or in real time. The data can include expenses, bank statements including all the fields such as amounts, VAT rates, categories, descriptions, custom fields, etc. The API can also be used to update data, such as custom fields.

Yes, the API is free to use for all Payhawk accounts.

The API is limited to 15 requests per second, which should be suitable for all use cases.

The key can be found in the Payhawk Portal under Account -> Settings. If the key is not yet activated, contact us at partners@payhawk.com.

The URL is https://api.payhawk.io/api/v3. The rest of the path is then added, depending on the requests, for example, expenses - /api/v3/accounts/{accountId}/expenses.

Yes. The full list of webhooks can be seen in the documentation under IWebhookSubscription -> eventType

By design, we return up to 1000 items per request to avoid timeouts. To request the next 1000, use the skip and take parameters.

These functionalities are not available through the API. The user, not the system or an accountant, should perform actions such as creating an expense. The API actions are performed on behalf of the system.
