Projects

The Project Object

Projects are structured entities that allow you to manage and track financials, resources, and tasks related to specific client engagements or internal initiatives.

Note: QuickBooks Online serves Projects from a separate Intuit API that does not expose record timestamps, so created_at and updated_at are always null for QuickBooks Online projects. Filtering or sorting QuickBooks Online projects by those fields will not match any records — use start_date, due_date, or completed_date instead. QuickBooks Online also requires the project-management.project OAuth scope and a Silver or higher Intuit partner tier; connections without that entitlement report Projects as skipped rather than returning an empty list.

Properties

idstring

The Rutter generated unique ID of the project.

platform_idstring

The platform specific ID of the project.

completed_datestringnullable

The date the project was actually completed. Null while the project is still open.

due_datestringnullable

The date the project is due to be completed.

start_datestringnullable

The date the project started or is scheduled to start.

namestring

The name of the project.

statusstring

Status of the project.

completion_ratenumbernullable

How complete the project is, as a percentage from 0 to 100. Null if the platform does not track completion.

prioritynumbernullable

The priority level of the project, as a platform-defined integer. The set of values and their ordering are platform-specific — QuickBooks Online reports 1, 2, or 3. Null if the platform does not track priority.

project_categorystringnullable

The category of the project.

created_atstringfilterablenullable

The ISO 8601 timestamp that the project was created.

updated_atstringfilterablenullable

The ISO 8601 timestamp that the project was last updated.

last_synced_atstringfilterable

The ISO 8601 timestamp when the project was last synced by Rutter.

Request Parameters

    access_tokenstringqueryRequired

    The access token of the connection.

    cursorstringqueryOptional

    Used to paginate to the next batch of objects. Should be a copy of the next_cursor value from the previous response.

    limitintegerqueryOptional

    Used to limit the number of returned objects. Defaults to 50.

    filterstringqueryOptional

    Not currently supported on Sage Intacct or Sage Business Cloud. Used to specify a filtering criteria for response objects. Refer to Filtering Objects to understand the syntax for the filtering criteria. The filtering syntax only supports fields decorated with a filterable tag in the response object.

    Filterable fields: created_at, updated_at, last_synced_at.

    sortstringqueryOptional

    Used to sort the response objects, e.g. last_synced_at ASC. If a value is provided but ASC or DESC is not, defaults to ASC. If omitted, defaults to updated_at DESC. Supports only fields decorated with a filterable tag in the response object except on Sage Intacct and Sage Business Cloud. For those platforms, only updated_at_min, updated_at_max and last_synced_at_min fields are supported and not deprecated.

    Sortable fields: created_at, updated_at, last_synced_at.

    expandenumqueryOptional

    Include platform specific data (includes additional fields not provided by the Rutter object).

    Must beplatform_data.
    last_synced_at_minintegerqueryOptional

    Deprecated - use filter instead. Used to filter objects with a last_synced_at value greater than or equal to the supplied value. Should be a Unix time in milliseconds.

    updated_at_maxintegerqueryOptional

    Deprecated - use filter instead. Used to filter objects with a updated_at value less than or equal to the supplied value. Should be a Unix time in milliseconds.

    updated_at_minintegerqueryOptional

    Deprecated - use filter instead. Used to filter objects with a updated_at value greater than or equal to the supplied value. Should be a Unix time in milliseconds.

    force_fetchenumqueryOptional

    Used to force a response even if the underlying connection has not finished its initial sync.

    One oftrue or false.
