Postlock for Xero

Read-only. Always.

Postlock connects to Xero with read-only access - it pulls your balance sheet, detects post-lock changes, and verifies board figures. It can never change anything in your ledger.

The connection

What Postlock reads, and what it never touches.

What we read

  • Balance sheet: your as-at-date report, pulled once per close
  • Profit & loss: snapshotted at lock for the restatement comparison
  • Document history: who posted what and when, for post-lock attribution
  • Organisation details: your Xero shortcode, for deep links back into Xero

What we never do

  • Post, edit or delete anything in your ledger
  • Create invoices, journals or bank transactions
  • Request write scopes, ever
  • Access payroll or employee records
  • Use your data to train AI models

OAuth 2.0 · Xero's standard flow

You connect via Xero's standard OAuth authorisation page. Postlock requests only the scopes it needs. Your token is stored securely server-side and removed the moment you disconnect.

Demo Company by default

Postlock only connects to the Xero Demo Company out of the box. Connecting to real organisations requires an explicit config change - so you can verify the integration safely before touching live data.

Getting connected

Three steps.

01

Create an account

Sign up at postlock.co - no card required for the trial.

02

Connect Xero

From the dashboard, click Connect Xero. Xero's authorisation page opens - click Allow and you're back in Postlock.

03

Run your first close

Pick a month, open the reconciliation screen, and Postlock pulls your balance sheet. You're reconciling.

Xero App Store certification is on the roadmap - we'll say plainly where we are. See Security for the full data-handling picture.
