Taxes | FieldCamp API

List the tax codes you apply to estimate and invoice line items.

Tax codes are IDs you reference from a line item's taxes array on an estimate or invoice. Each code has a name (e.g. "VAT 20%") and a decimal rate. Jobs carry a single tax total that you send yourself, not tax codes.

Usage pattern

Fetch once at startup, cache, and map by name when you build the items array for an invoice. Each line item takes taxes: [{ taxId, taxName, taxRate, taxAmount }]. taxRate and taxAmount default to 0, so if you leave them out the line's tax is stored as zero. A document-level tax uses a different shape: { taxId, name, rate }.

const { data } = await fc.get('/api/taxes');
const taxByName = Object.fromEntries(data.data.taxes.map(t => [t.name, t.id]));
const vatId = taxByName['VAT 20%'];

Endpoints

Send your key on the Authorization header here

This is a legacy route rather than a /api/v1/... one, and it authenticates slightly differently. Your fc_live_ key does work — it authenticates as the user who created it — but only when sent on the Authorization header:

curl https://api.fieldcamp.ai/api/taxes \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer fc_live_..."

X-Api-Key is not read on these routes, and per-key scopes are not enforced here — the key acts with its creator's own access. On the /api/v1/... routes both header forms work and scopes are checked, so prefer a v1 endpoint whenever one exists for what you need.

GET/api/taxes

Authorization

BearerAuth
AuthorizationBearer <token>

Your FieldCamp API key (starts with fc_live_). Send it as Authorization: Bearer fc_live_… — or as the X-Api-Key: fc_live_… header. Create a key in Settings → API. This is an API key, not a login JWT.
