Campfire

Campfire (via Apideck)

Access Campfire through Apideck's Accounting unified API — one of 34 Accounting connectors that share the same method surface. Code you write here ports to Access Financials, Acumatica, banqUP and 30 other Accounting connectors by changing a single serviceId string. Apideck handles auth, pagination, rate limiting, and retries so you don't write per-tenant Campfire plumbing.

> Beta connector. Campfire is currently in beta on Apideck. Expect partial resource coverage and occasional mapping gaps. Always verify coverage (see below) and fall back to the Proxy API for unsupported operations.

When to use this skill

Activate this skill when the user explicitly wants to work with Campfire — for example, "create an invoice in Campfire" or "reconcile payments in Campfire". This skill teaches the agent:

1. Which Apideck unified API covers Campfire (Accounting)
2. The correct serviceId to pass on every call (campfire)
3. Campfire-specific auth and coverage caveats

For the full method surface (parameters, pagination, filtering), use your language SDK skill:

• [apideck-node](../../skills/apideck-node/), [apideck-python](../../skills/apideck-python/), [apideck-dotnet](../../skills/apideck-dotnet/), [apideck-java](../../skills/apideck-java/), [apideck-go](../../skills/apideck-go/), [apideck-php](../../skills/apideck-php/), or [apideck-rest](../../skills/apideck-rest/)

For the raw OpenAPI spec:

• Accounting: https://specs.apideck.com/accounting.yml · API Explorer

Minimal example (TypeScript)

import { Apideck } from "@apideck/unify";

const apideck = new Apideck({
  apiKey: process.env.APIDECK_API_KEY,
  appId: process.env.APIDECK_APP_ID,
  consumerId: "your-consumer-id",
});

// List invoices in Campfire
const { data } = await apideck.accounting.invoices.list({
  serviceId: "campfire",
});

Portable across 34 Accounting connectors

The Apideck Accounting unified API exposes the same methods for every connector in its catalog. Switching from Campfire to another Accounting connector is a one-string change — no rewrite, no new SDK.

// Today — Campfire
await apideck.accounting.invoices.list({ serviceId: "campfire" });

// Tomorrow — same code, different connector
await apideck.accounting.invoices.list({ serviceId: "access-financials" });
await apideck.accounting.invoices.list({ serviceId: "acumatica" });

This is the compounding advantage of using Apideck over integrating Campfire directly: code against the unified Accounting API once, gain access to every connector in it. New connectors Apideck adds become available to your app without code changes.

Campfire via Apideck Accounting

Campfire is a modern accounting platform designed for fast-growing companies with multi-entity and multi-dimensional tracking needs. Very broad Apideck coverage.

Entity mapping

| Campfire entity | Apideck Accounting resource | |---|---| | Invoice | invoices | | Bill | bills | | Bill Payment | bill-payments | | Credit Note | credit-notes | | Payment | payments | | Journal Entry | journal-entries | | Account | ledger-accounts | | Customer | customers | | Supplier | suppliers | | Item | invoice-items | | Department | departments | | Subsidiary | subsidiaries | | Tracking Category | tracking-categories | | Bank Feed Account | bank-feed-accounts | | Bank Feed Statement | bank-feed-statements | | Company Info | company-info | | P&L, Balance Sheet | profit-and-loss, balance-sheet |

Coverage highlights

• ✅ Full CRUD on invoices, bills, payments (incl. bill payments)
• ✅ Credit notes
• ✅ Journal entries
• ✅ Departments, subsidiaries, tracking categories (deep multi-dim support)
• ✅ Bank feeds
• ✅ Financial reports (P&L, Balance Sheet)
• ⚠️ Revenue recognition — not in unified; use Proxy
• ❌ Audit trail detail beyond updated_at — use Proxy

Auth notes

• Type: API key, managed by Apideck Vault
• Organization binding: one Campfire organization per connection.
• Multi-entity: subsidiaries exposed as a first-class resource; scale to dozens of entities per org.

Example: list bills with department filter

const { data } = await apideck.accounting.bills.list({
  serviceId: "campfire",
  filter: { department_id: "dept_marketing" },
});

Escape hatch: Proxy API

When an endpoint isn't covered by the Accounting unified API, use Apideck's Proxy to call Campfire directly — Apideck injects auth headers and handles token refresh. Set x-apideck-downstream-url to the target endpoint on Campfire's own API:

curl 'https://unify.apideck.com/proxy' \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer ${APIDECK_API_KEY}" \
  -H "x-apideck-app-id: ${APIDECK_APP_ID}" \
  -H "x-apideck-consumer-id: ${CONSUMER_ID}" \
  -H "x-apideck-service-id: campfire" \
  -H "x-apideck-downstream-url: " \
  -H "x-apideck-downstream-method: GET"

See Campfire's API docs for available endpoints.

Sibling connectors
