As of November 2018, Xero is deprecating support for XSD schemas. We are moving ahead with OpenAPI Spec 3 files which are available on Github.
This repository contains a set of XSD schemas that can be used with the Xero API. Xero provide online accounting software for businesses. For more information on connecting to the API, see the Xero Developer Centre.
Add this dependency to your POM.xml
<dependency>
<groupId>com.github.xeroapi</groupId>
<artifactId>xeroapi-schemas</artifactId>
<version>1.0.0</version>
</dependency>
We've added support for maven build automation. A pom.xml file in the root defines how to generate Java classes from the XSD files in this project. To generate you Java classes, open your terminal app and change to the directory containing the pom.xml file and run the following command
mvn clean install A new target directory will be created along with subfolders. Look in the generated-source subfolder for your Java classes.
Please Note These XSD schemas are provided as a guide for the XML that is read/written to the Xero API 'as is' for information purposes only.
Xero does not commit to ensuring these schemas are always kept up to date, but does accept contributions and amendments to ensure they are as accurate as possible.
