It accepts an array of IDs so you can batch the request into a single call, which is significantly faster. ## OpenAPI ````yaml GET /quickbooks-desktop/inventory-assembly-items/{id} openapi: 3.1.0 info: title: Conductor API version: 0.0.1 servers: - url: https://api.conductor.is/v1 security: - BearerAuth: [] paths: /quickbooks-desktop/inventory-assembly-items/{id}: get: summary: Retrieve an inventory assembly item description: >- Retrieves an inventory assembly item by ID. **IMPORTANT:** If you need to fetch multiple specific inventory assembly items by ID, use the list endpoint instead with the `ids` parameter.

When updating this object, you must provide the most recent `revisionNumber` to ensure you're working with the latest data; otherwise, the update will return an error. example: '1721172183' name: type: string description: >- The case-insensitive name of this inventory assembly item. Not guaranteed to be unique because it does not include the names of its hierarchical parent objects like `fullName` does. For example, two inventory assembly items could both have the `name` "Deluxe Kit", but they could have unique `fullName` values, such as "Assemblies:Deluxe Kit" and "Inventory:Deluxe Kit". example: Deluxe Kit fullName: type: string description: >- The case-insensitive fully-qualified unique name of this inventory assembly item, formed by combining the names of its hierarchical parent objects with its own `name`, separated by colons. For example, if an inventory assembly item is under "Assemblies" and has the `name` "Deluxe Kit", its `fullName` would be "Assemblies:Deluxe Kit". **NOTE**: Unlike `name`, `fullName` is guaranteed to be unique across all inventory assembly item objects. However, `fullName` can still be arbitrarily changed by the QuickBooks user when they modify the underlying `name` field. example: Assemblies:Deluxe Kit barcode: type: - string - 'null' description: The inventory assembly item's barcode. example: '012345678905' isActive: type: boolean description: >- Indicates whether this inventory assembly item is active. Inactive objects are typically hidden from views and reports in QuickBooks.

Not case-sensitive. example: Parent:Child:Grandchild required: - id - fullName additionalProperties: false description: >- The parent inventory assembly item one level above this one in the hierarchy. For example, if this inventory assembly item has a `fullName` of "Assemblies:Deluxe Kit", its parent has a `fullName` of "Assemblies". If this inventory assembly item is at the top level, this field will be `null`. example: id: 80000001-1234567890 fullName: Assemblies sublevel: type: number description: >- The depth level of this inventory assembly item in the hierarchy. A top-level inventory assembly item has a `sublevel` of 0; each subsequent sublevel increases this number by 1. For example, an inventory assembly item with a `fullName` of "Assemblies:Deluxe Kit" would have a `sublevel` of 1. example: 1 sku: type: - string - 'null' description: >- The inventory assembly item's stock keeping unit (SKU), which is sometimes the manufacturer's part number. example: MPN-123456 unitOfMeasureSet: type: - object - 'null' properties: id: type: - string - 'null' description: >- The unique identifier assigned by QuickBooks to this object.

This can be overridden at the transaction-line level. Default codes include "Non" (non-taxable) and "Tax" (taxable), but custom codes can also be created in QuickBooks. If QuickBooks is not set up to charge sales tax (via the "Do You Charge Sales Tax?" preference), it will assign the default non-taxable code to all sales. example: id: 80000001-1234567890 fullName: Non salesDescription: type: - string - 'null' description: >- The description of this inventory assembly item that appears on sales forms (e.g., invoices, sales receipts) when sold to customers. example: High-quality steel bolts suitable for construction salesPrice: type: - string - 'null' description: >- The price at which this inventory assembly item is sold to customers, represented as a decimal string. example: '19.99' incomeAccount: type: object properties: id: type: - string - 'null' description: >- The unique identifier assigned by QuickBooks to this object.

When the sum of `quantityOnHand` (current inventory) and `quantityOnOrder` (pending purchase orders) drops below this threshold, QuickBooks will notify users that more units need to be built or assembled. This helps ensure adequate inventory levels for inventory assembly items. example: 10 maximumQuantityOnHand: type: - number - 'null' description: >- The maximum quantity of this inventory assembly item desired in inventory. example: 200 quantityOnHand: type: - number - 'null' description: >- The number of units of this inventory assembly item currently in inventory. `quantityOnHand` multiplied by `averageCost` equals `totalValue` for inventory item lists. To change the `quantityOnHand` for an inventory assembly item, you must use an inventory-adjustment instead of updating the inventory assembly item directly. example: 150 averageCost: type: - string - 'null' description: >- The average cost per unit of this inventory assembly item, represented as a decimal string. example: '16.50' quantityOnPurchaseOrder: type: - number - 'null' description: >- The number of units of this inventory assembly item that have been ordered from vendors (as recorded in purchase orders) but not yet received. example: 10 quantityOnSalesOrder: type: - number - 'null' description: >- The number of units of this inventory assembly item that have been sold (as recorded in sales orders) but not yet fulfilled or delivered to customers. example: 10 externalId: type: - string - 'null' description: >- A globally unique identifier (GUID) you, the developer, can provide for tracking this object in your external system.
