About Expensify
Expensify is a leading expense management platform that simplifies expense tracking, reporting, and reimbursement for businesses of all sizes. With AI powered SmartScan technology for receipt scanning, corporate card integration, automated expense categorization, and fraud detection, Expensify streamlines the entire expense workflow from receipt capture to accounting reconciliation. Finance teams use Expensify to manage employee expenses, corporate cards, travel bookings, bill payments, and accounting integrations while maintaining compliance and reducing manual data entry through intelligent automation.
The Expensify API enables developers to:
Authenticate using partner credentials (partnerUserID and partnerUserSecret) with authToken management for secure session based access.
Query expenses, reports, receipts, corporate card transactions, reimbursements, and policy data with advanced filtering and date range specifications.
Create or update expense records, submit reports programmatically, upload receipt images, and manage approval workflows.
Manage complex financial operations with support for split expenses, multi currency transactions, custom categories and tags, and compliance enforcement.
Integrate with external systems through API commands for expense creation, report generation, receipt processing, and accounting synchronization.
Why Integrate Expensify with Emergent?
Connecting Expensify directly often requires setting up partner credentials, managing authToken refresh cycles, mapping complex expense and report schemas with custom fields, handling corporate card reconciliation logic, synchronizing financial data across multiple accounting systems, and building custom dashboards or approval interfaces. Each integration can quickly turn into a substantial development project requiring expense management and accounting expertise.
Emergent removes that complexity:
Build by prompt, describe the Expensify app you want and the expense workflows you need, and Emergent automatically scaffolds the UI, orchestration, data models, and integrations.
Schema aware mapping, Emergent understands Expensify's data structure including expenses, reports, receipts, corporate cards, categories, tags, approval workflows, and reimbursement status, helping you map financial data accurately across accounting, CRM, and analytics platforms.
Secure by design, features include encrypted key vaults for partner credentials and authTokens, environment isolation, role based access, and audit friendly logs, making it suitable for teams with strict financial data handling and compliance requirements.
Real time workflows, webhooks, retries, backoff, caching, batching, and error handling are built in for reliability and consistency across expense submission and approval operations.
Orchestrate multiple tools, combine Expensify with Salesforce, QuickBooks, Slack, Google Sheets, and NetSuite to build complete systems such as unified financial platforms, automated expense to accounting flows, corporate card reconciliation dashboards, and cross functional expense tracking portals.
How Emergent Works with Expensify in Real Time?
STEP 1: Describe your app
Example: "Build an expense operations hub that syncs Expensify expenses with Salesforce opportunities for client billing, exports reports to QuickBooks for accounting reconciliation, sends Slack notifications when high value expenses need approval, tracks expense trends in Google Sheets, and synchronizes with NetSuite for enterprise financial management."
STEP 2: Declare integrations
Say "Expensify + Salesforce + QuickBooks + Slack + Google Sheets + NetSuite." Emergent sets up providers, authentication, and recommended connection methods including partner credential authentication.
STEP 3: Secure credentials
Provide your Expensify partner credentials, partnerUserID and partnerUserSecret, generated from the Expensify integrations page. Keys are stored in an encrypted vault with environment isolation for development, staging, and production.
STEP 4: Select data sources and map properties
Emergent automatically introspects your Expensify workspace, including expenses, reports, receipts, corporate card transactions, categories, tags, approval policies, and reimbursement data.
It then guides you to map properties such as expense categories to accounting codes, corporate card transactions to bank feeds, report approvals to workflow triggers, and receipt data to document management systems.
STEP 5: Real time and scheduled flows
Configure event triggers using Expensify webhooks for expense submission, report approval, receipt scanning, or card transaction imports. Set up scheduled syncs or define on demand actions such as button clicks in the app.
STEP 6: Test and preview
Run test queries, simulate webhook payloads, validate expense synchronization and accounting reconciliation workflows, check logs, and automatically handle authToken refresh and rate limits.
STEP 7: Deploy
Deploy your app with one click, complete with versioning, monitoring, error alerts, and usage analytics. You can easily roll back or iterate on prompts.
STEP 8: Expand
Add new steps like AI powered expense anomaly detection, automated policy violation alerts, or predictive budget tracking. Connect additional tools and integrate new expense categories without any rewrites.
