e-conomic Data Extractor

e-conomic Data Extractor

When a new customer signs up with their e-conomic account, Vern's e-conomic extractor pulls their full accounting history — customers, accounts, products, and employees — straight into your product through a single managed migration. You don't ask them to export spreadsheets or wire up e-conomic's auth flow yourself. It's built for teams onboarding users off e-conomic and getting their books into your app on day one.

Objects Vern extracts

Vern extracts the full set of queryable e-conomic objects (33 total), including: Accounting Years, Accounts, App Roles, Archived Orders, Archived Quotes, Booked Invoices, Currencies, Customer Groups, Customers, Departmental Distributions, Departments, Draft Invoices, Draft Orders, Draft Quotes, Employees, Journals, Not Due Invoices, Overdue Invoices, Paid Invoices, Payment Terms, Payment Types, Product Groups, Products, Sent Invoices, Sent Orders, Sent Quotes, Suppliers, Total Invoices, Units, Unpaid Invoices, Vat Accounts, Vat Types, and Vat Zones.

Output schema

Normalized JSON per object with referential keys preserved, so the relationships between your user's records survive the import. Timestamps are returned in ISO 8601. Delivered as JSON or CSV, or loaded straight into your own application database or pushed to your API — whatever your product expects.

Where it can land

Your own application database (Postgres, MySQL), a direct push to your API or webhook, or JSON/CSV files, plus another accounting system (Fastbill, FreeAgent, FreshBooks) when a user is switching tools.

Source details

Built for the source type shown above, with extractor content refreshed from the collection record.

Managed by Vern

The details you normally have to build yourself.

Authentication

API key / access token. Your user pastes their e-conomic API key once when they sign up; Vern stores it encrypted and attaches it to every request, handling header signing and retries so you never touch the raw credential. See e-conomic's authentication guide.

Pagination

Vern detects and handles e-conomic's paging model (cursor, page-number, or offset) internally and returns one consistent, de-duplicated result set — so you import a user's complete data without ever managing page tokens.

Rate limits and gotchas

e-conomic enforces its own API rate limits (see e-conomic's rate-limit docs). Vern queues and throttles requests internally so importing a new user's data never trips a 429 — even on a large account.

API-key sources rarely surface their true rate ceilings until you hit a 429 mid-import, and many silently cap page size. Vern throttles to stay under the limit and normalizes paging so a partial pull never lands a user in your product with missing data.

API quickstart

1. Create a migration for e-conomic
curl -X POST https://app.vern.so/api/v1/migrations \
-H "x-api-key: $VERN_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{ "name": "e-conomic → Postgres", "source": "e-conomic" }'
→ { "migration_id": "mig_..." }
2. Generate the extraction recipe (pulls live via the e-conomic API)
curl -X POST https://app.vern.so/api/v1/migrations/$MIGRATION_ID/runs \
-H "x-api-key: $VERN_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{ "kind": "generate", "extract_via_api": true }'
3. Run the approved extraction
curl -X POST https://app.vern.so/api/v1/migrations/$MIGRATION_ID/runs \
-H "x-api-key: $VERN_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{ "kind": "execute" }'
4. Download the normalized CSV export
curl https://app.vern.so/api/v1/migrations/$MIGRATION_ID/exports/{template} \
-H "x-api-key: $VERN_API_KEY" -o e-conomic_export.csv

A cleaner way to extract without rebuilding source-specific plumbing.

Common questions

Can I keep a user's e-conomic data in sync after the first import? Vern supports re-running an import on demand; incremental change tracking depends on what e-conomic's API exposes for each object.

Can I move a user from e-conomic to Fastbill? Yes — Vern normalizes the e-conomic data model into typed tables that map cleanly onto Fastbill and into your own product.

What does it cost to read the e-conomic API? e-conomic's own API access follows e-conomic's pricing/plan; Vern is billed separately per import. Check e-conomic's developer docs for their current limits.
