How to connect Glide and Xero
Create a New Scenario to Connect Glide and Xero
In the workspace, click the “Create New Scenario” button.
Add the First Step
Add the first node – a trigger that will initiate the scenario when it receives the required event. Triggers can be scheduled, called by a Glide, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, Glide or Xero will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Glide or Xero, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.
Add the Glide Node
Select the Glide node from the app selection panel on the right.

Authenticate Xero
Now, click the Xero node and select the connection option. This can be an OAuth2 connection or an API key, which you can obtain in your Xero settings. Authentication allows you to use Xero through Latenode.
Configure the Glide and Xero Nodes
Next, configure the nodes by filling in the required parameters according to your logic. Fields marked with a red asterisk (*) are mandatory.
Set Up the Glide and Xero Integration
Use various Latenode nodes to transform data and enhance your integration:
- Branching: Create multiple branches within the scenario to handle complex logic.
- Merging: Combine different node branches into one, passing data through it.
- Plug n Play Nodes: Use nodes that don’t require account credentials.
- Ask AI: Use the GPT-powered option to add AI capabilities to any node.
- Wait: Set waiting times, either for intervals or until specific dates.
- Sub-scenarios (Nodules): Create sub-scenarios that are encapsulated in a single node.
- Iteration: Process arrays of data when needed.
- Code: Write custom code or ask our AI assistant to do it for you.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Glide, Xero, and any additional nodes, don’t forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy." Activating the scenario ensures it will run automatically whenever the trigger node receives input or a condition is met. By default, all newly created scenarios are deactivated.
Test the Scenario
Run the scenario by clicking “Run once” and triggering an event to check if the Glide and Xero integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Glide and Xero (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Glide and Xero
Glide + Xero + Slack: When a new client is added in Glide, create a new contact in Xero using the 'Create Contact' action. Then, send a notification to a dedicated Slack channel informing the team about the new client.
Xero + Glide + Google Sheets: When a new invoice is paid in Xero, update the corresponding client data in Glide by editing the row. Simultaneously, record the transaction details in a Google Sheets spreadsheet for tracking and analysis.
