Export invoices

1. Authenticate to the cloud platform via the Python shell.

   The following variables should be available now:

   >>> base_url  # the base URL of the API
   '<the Acronis data center URL>/api/advanced-automation/v1'
   >>> auth  # the 'Authorization' header value with the access token
   {'Authorization': 'Bearer eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJSUzI1NiIsImtpZCI6ImMwMD...'}
   >>> tenant_id # the ID of the partner tenant that can be accessed with the token
   'ede9f834-70b3-476c-83d9-736f9f8c7dae'
   

2. Fetch a list of invoice IDs as described in Fetch a list of invoices and assign them to the ids variable:

   >>> ids = [
   ...     "e96e60a2-3fec-44f7-86b7-050a8103b431",
   ...     "f2a3f46e-d6d8-4692-8271-4f8600fb2bb0"
   ... ]
   

3. Define a variable named params, and then assign an object with the parameters for the request to this variable:

   >>> params = {
   ...     "ids": ids,
   ...     "exportFormat": 1  # 0 for XML, 1 for CSV
   ... }
   

4. Send a POST request to the /ExportInvoice endpoint:

   >>> response = requests.post(f'{base_url}/ExportInvoice', headers=auth, params=params)
   

5. Check the status code of the response:

   >>> response.status_code
   200
   

   Status code 200 means that the request was successful and a stream with the resulting invoices is returned. Additionally, invoices will be marked as exported and have their export date set or updated.
