QuickFile PowerShell API example:

Register your App

1. Register for an API key by creating an App: QuickFile > Account Settings > 3rd Party Integration > API
2. Click Create a new App.

Gather your account details

In order to authenticate, you'll need some details. If you didn't make a note of these details when you created the app, follow:

1. Navigate to Account Settings > 3rd Party Integration > API
2. At the top, to the right of the "Create a new App" button will be your "Account API KEY".
3. Find your application in the list (probably only one) and to the right click the blue question mark.
4. Make a note of your AppID. NOTE: THIS IS DIFFERENT TO YOUR ACCOUNT API KEY.
5. Get your account number from the top right of the QuickFile browser window (below your company name).

Authenticating.

1. Copy the contents of QuickFile_Example.ps1 into a new PowerShell editor session (e.g. ISE or VS Code) or clone the repo to your computer.
2. Complete your details for $AccountNumber, $ApplicationID and $Api_Key. For example:

   $AccountNumber  =  "123456789"
   $ApplicationID  =  "de3aab49-22e4-14e2-3ef2-a4ef88da81d0"
   $Api_Key  =  "9A22339C-622F-AF2A-D"
   

3. Modify the Endpoint parameter according to the QuickFile API Endpoint documentation. For example: $Endpoint = "https://api.quickfile.co.uk/1_2/system/getaccountdetails"
