    It is not clear if QuickBooks Online SDK (aka QBO XML SDK (SOAP)) is the old QBSDK for QB Online. I do know that QBSDK13 does not support QBOE anymore but we have many QBOE programs using QBFC12 and earlier. Please respond if we need to convert our programs by March 15, 2014. This would be a lot of work.

    I second – Jack

    Also see forum – https://intuitpartnerplatform.lc.intuit.com/questions/801058-migration-details-quickbooks-online-sdk-to-quickbooks-online-rest-api-v3

    It seems an analysis our many of our customers, it would be a challenge getting them moved over.

    Who can I call to discuss this?

    @Jack – Yes, you will need to migrate to the QuickBooks Online REST API v3

    @Rajeev – I’ve gotten your comments, forum posts, email and voice mail …I’ll setup a meeting to discuss.

    I also agree that the time frame is unrealistic. This will be antagonistic to our mutual customers. Please reconsider the time frame.

    Hi All,
    I wanted help regarding quickbooks online sdk. I have downloaded the sdkJavav3SDK2.0.3 and using it to fetch the data from particular company. I have used OAuthAuthorizer, DataService, Customer, QueryResult, etc. for it. But on executing the code I am getting following exception:
    “Exception in thread “main” com.intuit.ipp.exception.FMSException: javax.net.ssl.SSLPeerUnverifiedException: peer not authenticated”
    Can please someone put some light on it? I have used the approach given in one of the blogs: Created a dummy app first and then a company with data. Using app id i got the keys and secrets from
    https://appcenter.intuit.com/Playground
    Then tried connecting it through code.

      Yogini, Due to the technical complexity of your question it is best if you post to our live community to get the best answer.

    I’m using the QBO XML SDK to simply integrate with one client’s QBO company. It’s not meant to be a SaaS solution, so it wouldn’t be appropriate for the Intuit App Center. What are my options? According to Intuit, I can’t keep using the QBXML SDK, but I can’t really use the new REST API because it involves publishing an app to the App Center. Help!!!!

    @Mitch, please see the slide, in this post: https://developer.intuit.com/blog/2013/12/19/2014-roadmap-and-migration-dates-for-existing-developers

    You will fall in the 3rd column. You’ll connect via the QuickBooks Online REST API v3 but not go on Apps.com.

    @Mitch & Yogini, If you are still struggling, you may want to consider using a third party developer library that has already done the work implementing OAuth and can handle the HTTP communications for you. For instance, the QuickBooks ADO.NET Provider by http://www.rssbus.com has an implementation for the new QBO V3 API that will handle the OAuth portion and exposes the available Entities and Transactions as if they were tables in a database. It can be used both from Desktop Applications and from Web Applications / Websites.

    Is there any way to apply for a SOAP API extension?

  10. David Leary Avatar

    @chrisdroge – I just sent you an email

  11. Neil Britto Avatar

    Is there any way to extend this deadline?

    Thank you David.

    It is March 15, 2014 already. Seeing QuickBooks QBO XML server still response requests. Why QuickBooks sent me email to migrate to V3?

    How can we test that our changes are working properly without connecting to our production version of QBO?

      @torkelsonb – You can create a test QuickBooks Online instance and get a developer subscription here: https://developer.intuit.com/docs/0025_quickbooksapi/0010_getting_started/0020_connect/create_sample_quickbooks_data
