QuickBooks Estimate to Invoice

The API
QuickBooks
didn't build.

Every approved estimate still requires a manual click in QuickBooks to become an invoice. There's no API for it. Clickr wraps that exact action into a single REST call. Send a txnId, get a converted invoice back.

How it works

Not magic.
Browser automation.

01

Your code calls our API

POST to our endpoint with an estimate ID. From curl, Zapier, n8n, your app, or a Claude agent — anywhere that speaks HTTP.

POST /v2/.../estimates/convert-to-invoice

02

We handle QuickBooks

Clickr logs into QuickBooks as you, opens the estimate, and clicks Convert to Invoice. MFA? We handle that natively.

03

You get the result

A clean JSON response comes back with the new invoice ID confirming the conversion. Your workflow continues automatically.

{ "status": "converted", "invoiceId": "..." }

Claude Code & AI agents

Give your Claude
agent access
to QuickBooks.

Every Clickr endpoint is a standard REST call - trivial to wrap as a Claude tool, an MCP server, or an n8n AI node. Your agent can convert estimates on approval, create invoices from emails, and query billing data without touching a browser.

Agent converts estimate to invoice when a job is marked approved in your CRM

Claude creates invoices from incoming email or Slack approval messages

Pull open estimates to answer billing questions from your team

Chain with QuickBooks Webhooks to react to invoice status changes

How does Clickr convert estimates to invoices through API?

Behind the scenes, Clickr is a browser automation tool that mimics the manual process of converting estimates to invoices in QuickBooks, breaking each step down into precise actions. When triggered via API, Clickr re-executes these steps, ensuring consistent and accurate invoice creation.

To make automation even more accessible, Clickr has been wrapped into popular tools like Zapier and n8n, allowing no-code users to trigger invoice conversions effortlessly. For developers and advanced users, the underlying API remains fully accessible through custom applications, Postman, Claude Code, or direct API calls.

1. Create Your Clickr Integration

To get started, go to your Clickr Dashboard and click the add integration button.
