[Xero Integration] - First time setup

In our system, you can set up the link between your Xero account, and your Pabau CRM clinic. This integration will allow you to receive all of your invoices that are generated in Pabau CRM, to your Xero account. This includes any changes made to those invoices, as well as payments.

The sync between Pabau CRM and your Xero account is an automatic set-and-forget process, which has to be established once, the reason being that you have to establish the first authorization link that will grant Pabau CRM the necessary permission to do the sync.

To set up the Xero integration, follow the steps below:

  1. Login in Xero;

  2. Create a new Xero application, by visiting My apps on Xero

  3. Log in with your credentials (if asked);

  4. You will be redirected to this page:

*You can safely ignore any previously related apps to Pabau CRM, or delete them.

5. Now you will see this small window pop-up:

6. Fill in the pop-up form with the details listed below (make sure to pay close attention):

NOTE: Do not use PabauCRM2.0 for the app name, that's just an example, please use any name instead!

Important: Regarding OAuth 2.0 redirect URI: https://crm.pabau.com/modules/xero/authenticate.php - crm.pabau.com is dynamic, and depends on your account's URL. For example, if the URL you see in the address bar is clinic.pabau.me, then the URL you need to use is https://clinic.pabau.me/modules/xero/authenticate.php


7. After filling in the form, click on the Create App button;

8. You will now be redirected to the newly created App details page, which looks like in the screenshot below:
