What the FreshBooks connector can do
Small businesses use FreshBooks for invoicing, expenses, and time tracking. Connected to a type.com Space, the agent can list the businesses and clients tied to your account, check which staff have access, and set up or remove webhooks for events like a new invoice or payment, keeping billing visibility inside the same thread the team already works in.
One connection, many Spaces
Connect FreshBooks once, then decide which Spaces can use it in threads, skills, automations, and coding work.

FAQ
Questions people ask before connecting FreshBooks
Can Claude pull FreshBooks client data in type.com?
Yes. Once a FreshBooks connection is shared with a Space, you can ask the agent to list clients, check balances, or review staff access in a thread.
How do I sign in to FreshBooks from type.com?
FreshBooks uses OAuth, so you sign in once through FreshBooks to authorize the connection. An admin then shares that connection with the Spaces that need it.
Can FreshBooks checks run on a recurring schedule?
Yes. A type.com automation can check FreshBooks for new clients or outstanding balances on a set schedule and post the summary to a channel.
Is this the same as a FreshBooks MCP server?
Not exactly. type.com uses connectors and connections to give selected Spaces access to approved app tools and data. Some connectors use hosted MCP, while others use OAuth, API keys, service accounts, or custom APIs.
