List all sales-tax codes

Authorizations

Authorization

string

header

required

Your Conductor secret key using Bearer auth (e.g., "Authorization: Bearer {{YOUR_SECRET_KEY}}").

Headers

Conductor-End-User-Id

string

required

The ID of the EndUser to receive this request (e.g., "Conductor-End-User-Id: {{END_USER_ID}}").

Query Parameters

ids

string[]

Filter for specific sales-tax codes by their QuickBooks-assigned unique identifier(s).

IMPORTANT: If you include this parameter, QuickBooks will ignore all other query parameters for this request.

names

string[]

Filter for specific sales-tax codes by their name(s), case-insensitive. Like id, name is a unique identifier for a sales-tax code.

IMPORTANT: If you include this parameter, QuickBooks will ignore all other query parameters for this request.

limit

integer

The maximum number of objects to return.

IMPORTANT: QuickBooks Desktop does not support cursor-based pagination for sales-tax codes. This parameter will limit the response size, but you cannot fetch subsequent results using a cursor. For pagination, use the name-range parameters instead (e.g., nameFrom=A&nameTo=B).

When this parameter is omitted, the endpoint returns all sales-tax codes without limit, unlike paginated endpoints which default to 150 records. This is acceptable because sales-tax codes typically have low record counts.

Required range: x > 1

status

enum<string>

default:

active

Filter for sales-tax codes that are active, inactive, or both.

Available options:

Filter for sales-tax codes updated on or after this date and time, in ISO 8601 format (YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm:ss). If you only provide a date (YYYY-MM-DD), the time is assumed to be 00:00:00 of that day.

updatedBefore

string

Filter for sales-tax codes updated on or before this date and time, in ISO 8601 format (YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm:ss). If you only provide a date (YYYY-MM-DD), the time is assumed to be 23:59:59 of that day.

nameContains

string

Filter for sales-tax codes whose name contains this substring, case-insensitive. NOTE: If you use this parameter, you cannot also use nameStartsWith or nameEndsWith.

Filter for sales-tax codes whose name starts with this substring, case-insensitive. NOTE: If you use this parameter, you cannot also use nameContains or nameEndsWith.

nameEndsWith

data

object[]

required

The array of sales-tax codes.

data.createdAt

string

required

The date and time when this sales-tax code was created, in ISO 8601 format (YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss±hh:mm). The time zone is the same as the user's time zone in QuickBooks.

data.description

string | null

required

A description of this sales-tax code.

data.id

string

required

The unique identifier assigned by QuickBooks to this sales-tax code. This ID is unique across all sales-tax codes but not across different QuickBooks object types.

data.isActive

boolean

required

Indicates whether this sales-tax code is active. Inactive objects are typically hidden from views and reports in QuickBooks. Defaults to true.

data.isTaxable

boolean

required

Indicates whether this sales-tax code is tracking taxable sales. This field cannot be modified once the sales-tax code has been used in a transaction.

data.name

string

required

The case-insensitive unique name of this sales-tax code, unique across all sales-tax codes. This short name will appear on sales forms to identify the tax status of an item.

NOTE: Sales-tax codes do not have a fullName field because they are not hierarchical objects, which is why name is unique for them but not for objects that have parents.

data.objectType

string

required

The type of object. This value is always "qbd_sales_tax_code".

Allowed value: "qbd_sales_tax_code"

data.revisionNumber

string

required

The current QuickBooks-assigned revision number of this sales-tax code object, which changes each time the object is modified. 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.

data.salesTaxItem

object | null

required

The sales-tax item used to calculate the actual tax amount for this sales-tax code's transactions by applying a specific tax rate collected for a single tax agency. Unlike salesTaxCode, which only indicates general taxability, this field drives the actual tax calculation and reporting.

data.updatedAt

string

required

The date and time when this sales-tax code was last updated, in ISO 8601 format (YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss±hh:mm). The time zone is the same as the user's time zone in QuickBooks.

objectType

string

required

The type of object. This value is always "list".

Allowed value: "list"

url

string

required

The endpoint URL where this list can be accessed.
