- Understanding Xero Integration Permissions
Our Xero integration operates under specific read-only permissions that determine which data is accessible and visible within the application. When connecting to Xero, the integration requests access to read settings and contacts. These permissions ensure that our application can access essential financial data while maintaining security and data integrity. The read-only nature of these permissions means that while we can retrieve and display your Xero data, we cannot make any modifications to your Xero account.
