Security Notice

Read-write server — can create invoices and modify accounting data. Use OAuth2 with minimum required scopes — do not request full accounting scope if read-only access is sufficient for your use case. Community-maintained, not an official Xero product despite the XeroAPI GitHub organization. Verify the specific GitHub repository is actively maintained before deploying in production. OAuth2 tokens expire and require refresh — handle token rotation in production deployments.

Xero MCP connects AI agents to your Xero accounting system via OAuth2 for financial queries and workflow automation. Read-write access enables invoice creation alongside data retrieval. Community-maintained server, free to install. Requires active Xero subscription and OAuth2 setup through Xero developer portal. Use minimum OAuth scopes for your use case — avoid full accounting write access unless necessary.

About Xero MCP

The Xero MCP server connects AI agents to your Xero accounting system through OAuth2 authentication, enabling both data retrieval and write operations. Agents can query the chart of accounts, pull invoice lists and status, access bank transaction data for reconciliation, generate P&L and balance sheet reports, and create new invoices through natural language commands. The server is community-maintained and free to install, but requires an active Xero subscription and OAuth2 credentials configured through the Xero developer portal. Because it provides read-write access, OAuth2 scope management is critical — request only the minimum scopes required for your workflow. The community origin means verifying active maintenance of the specific repository before production deployment is important. For global businesses, Xero's international availability makes this a stronger choice than QuickBooks MCP for non-US markets.
