Get Bill
GET/api/qbo/bills/:id
Get a single QBO bill by ID.
Any valid API token can call this endpoint — no specific scope required. Manage tokens.
This document is pushed to QuickBooks by SKU's ledger, so the response includes reverse cross-link fields: ledger_entry_id and ledger_entry_reference identify the SKU ledger entry that pushed it, while sku_link_type, sku_link_id, sku_link_label, and sku_link_route point back to the originating SKU document. These are null when the document originated in QuickBooks rather than being pushed by SKU. vendor_link_id cross-links to the mirrored QuickBooks vendor. Returns line_items (normalized line rows parsed from the stored QuickBooks payload) and detail_payload (the full raw QuickBooks payload); both are null until the document is re-synced from QuickBooks.
Also returns an amounts summary (subtotal, tax, total, balance, paid) and a tax_code on each line_items row.

Response Headers
Unauthenticated — the bearer token is missing, revoked, expired, or malformed. Never retry automatically; fix the credential. See the Errors guide.
Forbidden — the token lacks a required scope, the endpoint is not available to API tokens, or the user behind the token lacks the permission. A human must adjust the token scopes or user permissions; do not retry.
Not found — no record with the given identifier (or the route does not exist). Verify the ID before retrying.
Rate limited — platform limit is 1,000 requests/min; individual tokens may carry lower limits. Honor the Retry-After header before retrying. See the Rate Limits guide.
