Bill
BILL is an accounts payable, accounts receivable, and business-payments platform used to manage vendors, bills, and related finance records through REST APIs.
The Flowgear BILL Node lets you query, create, update, and delete supported BILL resources by selecting template-driven operations from the curated v3 API surface.

Methods
Use these Methods to retrieve, create, update, and delete BILL resources through the available OpenAPI operations.
Query
Retrieves BILL resources.
The Node handles paging internally for Query operations and emits the returned business rows directly.
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
Connection |
Connection | Connection information for BILL. |
OperationId |
String | Identifier of the OpenAPI operation to execute. |
Options |
Object | Additional parameters such as route and query values. |
| Return | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
Response |
Array | Response payload objects returned by the operation. Query rows contain the BILL business payload only. A no-match result returns zero rows. If the first provider request fails, Flowgear surfaces that BILL error instead of returning an empty result. |
Create
Creates BILL resources.
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
Connection |
Connection | Connection information for BILL. |
OperationId |
String | Identifier of the OpenAPI operation to execute. |
Options |
Object | Additional parameters such as route and query values. |
Items |
Array | Optional request-body items for the create operation. |
| Return | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
Response |
Array | Response payload objects returned by the operation. Mutation rows include the provider payload together with Flowgear.IsSuccess, Flowgear.Message, and Flowgear.Request. Provider status-like fields are surfaced as providerStatus, providerStatusMessage, and providerErrorMessage. |
Update
Updates BILL resources.
| Parameter | Type | Description |

| Parameter | Type | Description |

Options |
Object | Additional parameters such as route and query values. |
Items |
Array | Optional request-body items for the delete operation. |
| Return | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|

Usage Notes
- Use
Optionsto pass route and query values required by the selectedOperationId. - The Node owns BILL paging for
Query, so you do not passmax,page,nextPage, orprevPageinOptions. - Mutation request echoes use the current
Itemsobject, orOptionsfor bodyless operations. NestedContentvalues are excluded. - Query completes the first BILL page while the Node invoke is awaited. Additional pages are fetched only as the Workflow consumes the response stream.
- Create, Update, and Delete complete the first input item while the Node invoke is awaited. Later items are consumed lazily, and an empty connected input sends no provider request.
