Retrieving an Invoice as PDF in QuickBooks API V3

Question

Will retrieving Invoice documents as PDFs be available in QuickBooks API V3? If so, will QuickBooks Desktop be supported as well? In V2 (Intuit Data Services), only QuickBooks Online was supported.

It is not available in v3 yet. Currently only in v2. It will be supported eventually but not in the next 6 months. You can of course use v3 and v2 only to save an invoice as pdf if necessary.

Thanks Jarred. What about PDFs for QB Desktop in V3? – ihoka Jun 20 '13 at 07:38
I was referring to both QBO and QBD. – Jarred Keneally Jun 20 '13 at 10:43

    $dataService->throwExceptionOnError(true);

    $invoice = $dataService->FindById("Invoice", $invoiceId);

    $filename = "$customerEmail.pdf";

    $pdfData = $dataService->DownloadPDF($invoice, null, true);

    // Send the file to the browser.
    header('Content-Type: application/pdf');
    header('Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary');
    header('Accept-Ranges: bytes');
    header('Content-Disposition: inline; filename="' . $filename . '"');

    echo $pdfData;
