Install Jentic One Beta

Connect the Xero Assets API to your agent

Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the Xero Assets API, or any other public or private API you need. You set the rules, the agent never sees your credentials, and every call is logged.

Two steps, two machines. Install the instance in a safe environment, then register your agent from wherever it runs.

Step 1: Jentic One Host machine

# On the machine that will host your Jentic One instance:
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | sh

Step 2: Agent machine

# On the machine where your agent runs (keep this separate from the instance):
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | sh
jentic register       # connects your agent to your Jentic One instance

Jentic One is in public beta. The setup above keeps your agent separate from the instance, which is what you want before using real credentials: an agent running as the same OS user as Jentic One can read its stored keys directly. Just evaluating? A single local install is fine to start. See the secure deployment guide for the tiers.

For Agents

Programmatically adds a fixed asset, searches fixed asset. Covers 6 operations with oauth2 authentication.

Use for: I need to adds a fixed asset, I want to searches fixed asset, Search for retrieves fixed asset by id, Find all adds a fixed asset type

Not supported: Does not handle payments, communications, or crm - use for finance and accounting only.

Use Cases

Patterns agents use Xero Assets API for, with concrete tasks.

★ Finance and Accounting Operations

Use the Xero Assets API to perform finance operations programmatically. The API provides 6 endpoints covering core functionality including adds a fixed asset, searches fixed asset, retrieves fixed asset by id.

Call POST /Assets to adds a fixed asset

Automated Assettypes Management

Automate assettypes operations by combining multiple Xero Assets API endpoints. Agents can searches fixed asset and then retrieves fixed asset by id in a single workflow.

Call GET /Assets to searches fixed asset, then verify the result

AI Agent Integration via Jentic

AI agents discover and call Xero Assets API endpoints through Jentic without managing credentials directly. An agent searches for the required operation by intent, receives the matching endpoint schema, and executes the call with Jentic-managed authentication. This eliminates the need to read API documentation or handle oauth2 tokens manually.

Search Jentic for 'adds a fixed asset', load the operation schema, and execute with Jentic-managed credentials

Key Endpoints

6 endpoints — the assets api exposes fixed asset related functions of the xero accounting application and can be used for a variety of purposes such as creating assets, retrieving asset valuations etc.

Why Jentic?

Three things that make agents converge on Jentic-routed access.

Credential isolation

Your Xero Assets API OAuth2 credential is stored once, encrypted, by your own Jentic One instance and injected at execution time. It never enters the agent's prompt, logs, or context.

Intent-based discovery

Agents search Jentic by intent such as 'add a fixed asset' or 'list asset types', and Jentic returns the matching Xero Assets API operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right endpoint without browsing the reference docs.

Time to first call

FAQs

Specific to using Xero Assets API through Jentic.

What authentication does the Xero Assets API use?

The Xero Assets API uses OAuth 2.0 for authorization. Through Jentic, these credentials are stored encrypted in your Jentic One instance and injected at execution time, so raw secrets never enter the agent context.

Can I adds a fixed asset with the Xero Assets API?

Yes. Use the POST /Assets endpoint. The API returns structured JSON responses that agents can parse and act on directly.

What are the rate limits for the Xero Assets API?

Rate limits are not specified in the OpenAPI spec. Check the vendor documentation for current limits. Through Jentic, rate limiting is handled automatically with retry logic built into the execution layer.

How do I adds a fixed asset through Jentic?

Install the Jentic SDK with pip install jentic, authenticate through Jentic One, the self-hosted execution layer, then search for 'adds a fixed asset'. Jentic returns the matching Xero Assets API operation with its input schema. Load the schema and execute the call - credentials are injected automatically.

How many endpoints does the Xero Assets API have?

The Xero Assets API exposes 6 endpoints covering assettypes, assets, settings operations.

Can I limit what my agent is allowed to do with the Xero Assets API?

Yes. Jentic One is self-hosted by you, so your own rules decide which Xero Assets API operations and credentials the agent may use. You can grant read-only access, such as searching fixed assets or fetching settings, while withholding writes like adding a fixed asset or an asset type unless you explicitly allow them. Because the asset id sits in the URL path at /Assets/{id}, you can also pin the agent to a single asset. Credentials are injected at execution time under these limits, never exposed to the agent.
