Digits Connections: BILL
Connect BILL to Digits to sync bills and customer payments automatically and keep your records up to date.
Sync Overview
The following diagram shows what data syncs between BILL and Digits and the direction of each sync.
Before You Connect
Before connecting BILL:
You must be a BILL administrator.
You must have permission to create Sync Tokens in BILL.
If reconnecting BILL, disconnect any previous integration first (if applicable).
How to Connect to BILL
Warning: You will need administrator privileges in BILL in order to connect.
To connect a BILL account:
From the left navigation menu, click Connections
Click the Bills & Expenses tab
Find BILL and click Connect
Log in to your BILL account to generate a Sync Token
How to Generate a Sync Token in BILL
In BILL, go to Settings → Sync & Integrations → Tokens.
Click New.
Enter a Name for the Token, then click Save.
Copy the Token Name and Token Password.
WARNING: Save Token Name and Password before leaving the page—they’re only shown once❗
Then, back in Digits:
Enter the Token Name and Token Password in Digits.
Click Connect.
Once connected, Digits begins syncing data automatically.
If you already created a Sync Token before: BILL will show only the Token Name — not the password. To get a new Token Password, you’ll need to create a new Sync Token (repeat step 1).
What Happens After Connection
Once connected, ✨Digits will automatically:
Import your full transaction history from BILL
Sync new bills, invoices, and payments automatically
Automatically categorize and assign parties
Start a sync to keep the Ledger updated
Import time may vary based on the data volume and activity in BILL.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why don’t I see older transactions in Digits?
Digits imports all historical transactions available through the BILL API. If data appears missing, verify that the transaction history is accessible in your BILL account or re-sync from your dashboard.
What is a Sync Token?
A Sync Token is a name and password pair used only for syncing BILL with other platforms—it can’t be used to log into your BILL or Digits account.
What should I do if the BILL connection stops syncing?
Reconnect from the Connections tab in your dashboard. If errors persist, contact Digits Support at help@digits.com.
Will my BILL categories and GL coding carry over into Digits?
No. Digits does not sync or map category/GL coding data from BILL. Instead, Digits uses its own AI-based approach to automatically categorize imported bills and payments. If a transaction is categorized differently from what you expected, you can update it directly in the Digits Ledger.
