Help QuickBooks module for MM
-
Hi everyone,
I don’t know to much about programing and I need to display some information of QuickBooks in the MagicMirror.
I see a lot of api developed to connect and search the information on GitHub, but don’t know what is the better way to do.
Just need to display: Invoices, Bank Balance, Expenses and Sales.
Someone can help me?
Regards,
DP

I don’t think this is a good idea. A MagicMirror is by definition an IoT device, and IoT devices are notoriously known for their insecure practices. In fact, the default NOOBS install for the RPi from a security standpoint is a big no-no.
Unless you have hardened your Pi to have sufficient security practices AND made sure that your network is secure, I would highly recommend against having an IoT device have access to your personal/business financial data.
Plus, there are a few QB platforms e.g. online and desktop. Setting up access to a desktop QB file would likely require a computer to act as a QB server 24/7. And Quickbooks isn’t free, and module developers won’t be buying a subscription just to develop on it.
