For a great developer experience, the endpoints in the DigiTax Kenya API reference are interactive.

Once you're set up in the DigiTax Dashboard, you can generate a sandbox or LIVE X-API-Key for authorization. Read more on the API prerequisites.

Explore the API endpoints here.

You can make use of up to 19 programming language code samples for requests to get you started, regardless of the language you're using.

We support cursor-based pagination requests for endpoints whose GET requests return a list of objects.

The following are optional query parameters for paginated requests like GET sales.

Parameter	Explanation
before	When paginating results, a pointer to an ID before which we want results
after	When paginating results, a pointer to an ID after which we want results
page_size	The maximum number of items to return per page, defaults to 20

These are also explained on the API endpoint page(s).

After making requests via our interactive API reference, the most recent requests are saved for review under the "Recent Requests" section.

Parameters (or Params) come in two types in the DigiTax Kenya API - Query Params and Body Params.

Below are examples:
