π Embedded Onboarding Flow
Hereβs a typical flow for using Tyms as an embedded accounting engine:
-
Create a Business
Use thePOST /create/business
endpoint to register a business on Tyms from your platform. -
Subscribe the Business
Select a Tyms subscription plan using thePOST /create/business/subscription/{business_uuid}
endpoint. You can pre-select a billing frequency or prompt the user on your UI. -
Get the Business API Key
Retrieve the unique API key associated with the business to begin making accounting calls on its behalf. -
Manage Finances Programmatically
Start using endpoints to:- Create invoices and bills
- Record expenses and payments
- Generate financial statements (e.g., profit & loss, balance sheet)
π§ Example Use Case
Imagine you're building a small business banking platform. With Tyms embedded:
- A merchant signs up on your platform.
- Behind the scenes, you create a Tyms business for them.
- You subscribe them to a Tyms plan suitable for their business size.
- You pull their API key and start automating their bookkeeping based on their banking activity.
The merchant never has to know about Tyms directly, they simply enjoy built-in accounting inside your product.
π Best Practices
- Always store and handle API keys securely.
- Clearly notify users about the accounting automation happening on their behalf.
- Use the sandbox environment to test your entire embedding flow before going live.
