Externally generated XML

On this page, we suppose you already have an e-invoice XML, for example, because your management tool generates one for you automatically.

Unfortunately, Fatture in Cloud doesn't let you send your XML as-is to the SDI, but there still are some options that you could follow to import your documents into our systems.

🗄  Import as ZIP file​

If you want, it is possible to import your XMLs using a ZIP file. Please, note that this functionality is designed to let you import the history of your documents (for example if you decided to migrate to Fatture in Cloud) to keep track of the documents created with your all tools in a single place. Still, it will not be possible to send the documents to the SDI.



Here you can find a detailed description of the procedure you can follow to import your documents in this way.

⛰  Use our APIs​

This point surely requires more effort than the previous one, but the documents generated in this way will be exportable to the SDI. In this case, you'll need to use our APIs to generate a new document by using the data extracted from your management tool.



You have two ways to achieve it:

  • Create a tool that receives the resulting XML as input and maps every field of the document to the ones used by our JSON API
  • Create a plugin for your management tool that uses our APIs directly, without generating a XML

Of course, our AppStore might already contain a tool that's perfect for your needs, so check it out!

Here you can find a guide to help you understand the basic steps needed to create a document using our APIs.
