--- title: "List all journal entries" method: GET path: "/quickbooks-desktop/journal-entries" --- # List all journal entries `GET /quickbooks-desktop/journal-entries` Returns a list of journal entries. Use the `cursor` parameter to paginate through the results. ## Query parameters - `ids` string[] — Filter for specific journal entries by their QuickBooks-assigned unique identifier(s). **IMPORTANT**: If you include this parameter, QuickBooks will ignore all other query parameters for this request. **NOTE**: If any of the values you specify in this parameter are not found, the request will return an error. - `refNumbers` string[] — Filter for specific journal entries by their ref-number(s), case-sensitive. In QuickBooks, ref-numbers are not required to be unique and can be arbitrarily changed by the QuickBooks user. **IMPORTANT**: If you include this parameter, QuickBooks will ignore all other query parameters for this request. **NOTE**: If any of the values you specify in this parameter are not found, the request will return an error. - `limit` integer — The maximum number of objects to return. Accepts values ranging from 1 to 150, defaults to 150. When used with cursor-based pagination, this parameter controls how many results are returned per page. To paginate through results, combine this with the `cursor` parameter. Each response will include a `nextCursor` value that can be passed to subsequent requests to retrieve the next page of results. - `cursor` string — The pagination token to fetch the next set of results when paginating with the `limit` parameter. Do not include this parameter on the first call. Use the `nextCursor` value returned in the previous response to request subsequent results. - `updatedAfter` string — Filter for journal entries updated on or after this date/time. Accepts the following ISO 8601 formats: - **date-only** (YYYY-MM-DD) - QuickBooks Desktop interprets the date as the **start of the specified day** in the local timezone of the end-user's computer (e.g., `2025-01-01` → `2025-01-01T00:00:00`). - **datetime without timezone** (YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm:ss) - QuickBooks Desktop interprets the timestamp in the local timezone of the end-user's computer. - **datetime with timezone** (YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm:ss±HH:mm) - QuickBooks Desktop interprets the timestamp using the specified timezone. - `updatedBefore` string — Filter for journal entries updated on or before this date/time. Accepts the following ISO 8601 formats: - **date-only** (YYYY-MM-DD) - QuickBooks Desktop interprets the date as the **end of the specified day** in the local timezone of the end-user's computer (e.g., `2025-01-01` → `2025-01-01T23:59:59`). - **datetime without timezone** (YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm:ss) - QuickBooks Desktop interprets the timestamp in the local timezone of the end-user's computer. - **datetime with timezone** (YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm:ss±HH:mm) - QuickBooks Desktop interprets the timestamp using the specified timezone. - `transactionDateFrom` string, date — Filter for journal entries whose `date` field is on or after this date, in ISO 8601 format (YYYY-MM-DD). **NOTE:** QuickBooks Desktop interprets this date as the **start of the specified day** in the local timezone of the end-user's computer (e.g., `2025-01-01` → `2025-01-01T00:00:00`). - `transactionDateTo` string, date — Filter for journal entries whose `date` field is on or before this date, in ISO 8601 format (YYYY-MM-DD). **NOTE:** QuickBooks Desktop interprets this date as the **end of the specified day** in the local timezone of the end-user's computer (e.g., `2025-01-01` → `2025-01-01T23:59:59`). - `entityIds` string[] — Filter for journal entries associated with these entities (customers, vendors, employees, etc.). - `accountIds` string[] — Filter for journal entries associated with these accounts. - `refNumberContains` string — Filter for journal entries whose `refNumber` contains this substring. **NOTE**: If you use this parameter, you cannot also use `refNumberStartsWith` or `refNumberEndsWith`. - `refNumberStartsWith` string — Filter for journal entries whose `refNumber` starts with this substring. **NOTE**: If you use this parameter, you cannot also use `refNumberContains` or `refNumberEndsWith`. - `refNumberEndsWith` string — Filter for journal entries whose `refNumber` ends with this substring. **NOTE**: If you use this parameter, you cannot also use `refNumberContains` or `refNumberStartsWith`. - `refNumberFrom` string — Filter for journal entries whose `refNumber` is greater than or equal to this value. If omitted, the range will begin with the first number of the list. Uses a numerical comparison for values that contain only digits; otherwise, uses a lexicographical comparison. - `refNumberTo` string — Filter for journal entries whose `refNumber` is less than or equal to this value. If omitted, the range will end with the last number of the list. Uses a numerical comparison for values that contain only digits; otherwise, uses a lexicographical comparison. - `currencyIds` string[] — Filter for journal entries in these currencies. - `includeLineItems` boolean — Whether to include line items in the response.

For public custom fields visible in the UI, such as those added by the QuickBooks user, this is always "0". For private custom fields that are only visible to the application that created them, this is a valid GUID identifying the owning application. Internally, Conductor always fetches all public custom fields (those with an `ownerId` of "0") for all objects. - `name` string, required — The name of the custom field, unique for the specified `ownerId`. For public custom fields, this name is visible as a label in the QuickBooks UI. - `type` 'amount_type' | 'date_time_type' | 'integer_type' | 'percent_type' | 'price_type' | 'quantity_type' | 'string_1024_type' | 'string_255_type', required — The data type of this custom field. - `value` string, required — The value of this custom field. The maximum length depends on the field's data type. - `nextCursor` string, nullable, required — The `nextCursor` is a pagination token returned in the response when you use the `limit` parameter in your request. To retrieve subsequent pages of results, include this token as the value of the `cursor` request parameter in your following API calls. **NOTE**: The `nextCursor` value remains constant throughout the pagination process for a specific list instance; continue to use the same `nextCursor` token in each request to fetch additional pages. - `remainingCount` number, nullable, required — The number of objects remaining to be fetched. - `hasMore` boolean, required — Indicates whether there are more objects to be fetched. --- [API](https://skmtc.net/conductor-is/apis/conductor-api.md) · [All operations](https://skmtc.net/conductor-is/apis/conductor-api/llms.txt) · [OpenAPI document](https://skmtc-service-staging.skmtc.workers.dev/v1/apis/conductor-is/conductor-api/revisions/0b07b3ebe160/schema)
