Frequently Asked Questions about OneDrive + Xero integrations

New to automation with Zapier? You're not alone. Here are some answers to common questions about how Zapier works with OneDrive and Xero

How does the integration between OneDrive and Xero work?

Our integration allows you to automate workflows between OneDrive and Xero by creating 'Zaps'. These Zaps can include triggers and actions such as uploading files to a specific OneDrive folder whenever a new invoice is created in Xero.

Can I store my Xero invoices automatically in OneDrive?

Yes, you can set up a Zap where the creation of a new invoice in Xero triggers an action that automatically uploads a PDF of the invoice to a designated folder in OneDrive.

What are some common triggers for using OneDrive with Xero?

Common triggers include actions like creating or updating an invoice, receiving a payment, or adding a new contact in Xero. These can trigger actions such as saving documents or updating files in OneDrive.

Is it possible to update files in OneDrive when changes occur in Xero?

Absolutely, our integration allows you to set up Zaps where updates in your Xero data trigger modifications or updates to corresponding files stored on OneDrive.

How can I manage duplicates when integrating OneDrive with Xero?

We recommend setting filters within your Zaps that check for existing entries before creating new ones. For example, verify if an invoice file already exists in OneDrive before uploading another copy.

Are there any file size limitations when transferring documents from Xero to OneDrive using Zapier?

When transferring documents from Xero to OneDrive, keep file size limitations of both services in mind. While our platform doesn't impose extra limits, ensure individual file sizes adhere to both OneDrive’s upload limits and any API restrictions from Xero.

What should I do if my Zap doesn’t seem to be working as intended between Xero and OneDrive?

First, check if all settings and authentication details are correct. Ensure both apps are connected properly. You may also review logs within our platform for any error messages that could provide insights into adjusting your Zap configuration.
