Fetching user's available companies

The list of companies available to the authenticated user is available with a special field available under the Query type. This field is called availableCompanies. It is similar to the connection types seen so far, except that the pageInfo field is missing.

Here is a query example:

{
  availableCompanies
  {
    totalCount
    items
    {
      name
      vismaNetCompanyId
      vismaNetCustomerId
    }
  }
}

{
  "data": {
    "availableCompanies": {
      "totalCount": 2,
      "items": [
        {
          "name": "Marius Test AS",
          "vismaNetCompanyId": 5280...
          "vismaNetCustomerId": 9123...
        },
        {
          "name": "JAM&WAFFLES",
          "vismaNetCompanyId": 5199...
          "vismaNetCustomerId": 9456...
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

The availableCompanies field has several optional arguments:

• an argument called customerNo that indicates the Visma.net number of the customer for which available companies should be retrieved
• an argument called first that indicates the number of elements to be fetched from the top of the companies list
• an argument called last that indicates the number of elements to be fetched from the back of the companies list; if both first and last are present, first is used and last is ignored
• an argument called sortOrder that defines the sorting order of the result

To fetch companies specific to a particular customer, pass its Visma.net identifier in the customerNo parameter, as shown in the following example:

{
  availableCompanies(customerNo : 12345678)
  {
    totalCount
    items
    {
      name
      vismaNetCompanyId
    }
  }
}

{
  "data": {
    "availableCompanies": {
      "totalCount": 2,
      "items": [
        {
          "name": "Marius Test AS",
          "vismaNetCompanyId": 5280...
        },
        {
          "name": "JAM&WAFFLES",
          "vismaNetCompanyId": 5199...
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

If the customerNo parameter is missing, the companies available to all the available customers in the list are returned.

To retrieve the list of available customers see Fetching user’s available customers.

Service context

When you authenticate with client credentials (using a client ID and a client secret), fetching the list of available companies requires specifying a customer no (as described earlier).

You can find out the customer number in two ways:

• Authenticate with a Visma.net user and use the availableCustomers field to fetch the list (see Fetching user’s available customers).
• Retrieve this information from Visma.Net Admin.

To do the latter:

• Logon to https://adm.visma.net/
• Open the Configuration tab
• Copy the value for Visma.net Customer ID

When then customer ID is not provided, an error is returned, as follows:

{
  "errors": [
    {
      "message": "GraphQL.ExecutionError: Could not fetch the list of available companies. Customer number is mandatory."
    }
  ],
  "data": {
    "availableCompanies": null
  },
  "extensions": {
    "vbnxt-trace-id": "..."
  }
}
