Query Parameters

cursor?string

Opaque pagination cursor — pass nextCursor back unchanged with the same filters and sort. A mismatch returns 422; legacy cursors remain accepted.

limit?integer

Page size (1–200, default 50).

sort?string

Sort field, optionally prefixed with - for descending (Stripe-style). Defaults to -createdAt (newest first). The allowed fields differ per resource — see each list* operation. Common examples: ?sort=-paidAt (latest paid invoice), ?sort=dueDate (earliest due first), ?sort=name (alphabetical). Cursors are sort-aware: keep the same sort= when paginating. Allowed sort fields for expenses: amount, createdAt, expenseDate, id, relevance, updatedAt. Unsigned relevance is best-first and requires a non-empty search parameter.

search?string

Unicode-normalized token-AND search across: description, customCategory, client.name, project.name, invoice.number. Three-or-more-character terms include indexed typo-tolerant candidates; one/two-character input is an indexed primary-field prefix. Max 200 chars.

clientName?string

Case-insensitive partial match on the related client's name. Joins through the relation — pair with other filters as needed.

clientId?array<>

Filter by owning client. Repeat the parameter for OR semantics; duplicates are ignored (max 25 values).

projectId?array<>

Filter by owning project. Repeat the parameter for OR semantics; duplicates are ignored (max 25 values).

invoiceId?array<>

Filter by billed invoice. Repeat the parameter for OR semantics; duplicates are ignored (max 25 values).

currency?array<string>

ISO-4217 currency code (case-insensitive). Repeat the parameter for OR semantics; duplicates are ignored (max 25 values).

projectState?string

One of: set, unset.

category?array<>

One of: TRAVEL, MEALS, SOFTWARE, EQUIPMENT, CONTRACTORS, OTHER. Repeat the parameter for OR semantics; duplicates are ignored (max 25 values).

billable?string

Boolean — true/false/1/0/yes/no.

billed?string

Boolean — true/false/1/0/yes/no.

hasReceipt?string

Boolean — true/false/1/0/yes/no.

expenseDateFrom?string

Inclusive lower bound on expenseDate. Accepts YYYY-MM-DD (treated as UTC midnight) or full ISO timestamp.

expenseDateTo?string

createdAtTo?string

Inclusive upper bound on createdAt. YYYY-MM-DD is treated as end-of-day so the date is fully included.

Inclusive lower bound on updatedAt. Accepts YYYY-MM-DD (treated as UTC midnight) or full ISO timestamp.

updatedAtTo?string

Inclusive upper bound on updatedAt. YYYY-MM-DD is treated as end-of-day so the date is fully included.

amountMin?string

Inclusive lower bound on amount. Accepts decimal-string values like "150.00" to preserve precision.
