London Xero & QuickBooks Accounting Firm Leads

Find and normalize public accounting firm and advisor profiles from the Xero and QuickBooks directories in London, United Kingdom. The Actor is designed for accounting-software sales, fintech prospecting, partner research, recruitment, and market analysis.

Current checkpoint

The Xero and QuickBooks adapters are live public-directory implementations. The location is fixed to London, United Kingdom and resolves to UK-specific routes: Xero parses the server-rendered advisor data and visits public profiles, while QuickBooks drives its JavaScript search UI and public GraphQL-backed results. Website enrichment is unavailable.

Input

Use sample-input.json:

{
  "sources": ["xero", "quickbooks"],
  "maxResults": 14,
  "extractContacts": false,
  "includeRawData": false,
  "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": false }
}

The Actor always searches London, United Kingdom; there is no public location input. Legacy API payloads that include locations are ignored and canonicalized to London. The Actor returns at most maxResults (1–5,000) final deduplicated leads. When both Xero and QuickBooks are selected, a maxResults value below 14 is automatically normalized to 14 so both directories can contribute; single-source runs use the configured value unchanged. enrichWebsites: true is rejected because website enrichment is unavailable.

Local checks

npm install

npm test
npm run build
apify validate-schema

Both sources have passed independent London live runs with directory items and profiles fetched. Website enrichment is unavailable, so these are directory-only results. Source diagnostics report the source, location, stage, sanitized requested URL, HTTP status, content type, response size when available, parsed-item count, and sanitized error. They never include cookies, tokens, full HTML, or sensitive headers.

Limitations and responsible use

Coverage and fields are limited to what the London, United Kingdom directory routes publish. Xero's UK city page currently exposes five featured advisors; its full-results link returns 404. QuickBooks currently parses the first rendered result page; cursor pagination is not implemented. The QuickBooks UK directory requires JavaScript/browser interaction, a UK region parameter, a city-only location term, and a short debounced search wait; no cookie acceptance, authentication, or CAPTCHA bypass was required. Website enrichment is unavailable. The Actor processes public business data only, does not bypass authentication or CAPTCHA, does not guess emails, and does not infer certifications without explicit source evidence. Users must comply with applicable platform terms, privacy rules, and marketing laws.
