The SW Sapien app connects Invopop to SW Sapien’s Efisco service to bulk download CFDI documents from the SAT (Servicio de Administración Tributaria). Instead of managing sensitive eFirma certificates or building brittle web-scraping solutions, this app delegates the complexity of SAT authentication and download to a trusted third-party provider.
This app handles CFDI download only. Once downloaded, each CFDI is passed to the SAT Mexico app for conversion to GOBL format via a separate workflow.
Bulk CFDI download: Request and download CFDIs for a given date range, both issued and received, through SW Sapien’s Efisco API.
Automatic job dispatch: For each downloaded CFDI, the app uploads the file and creates a workflow job that triggers the conversion process.
Periodic execution: Combine with the Cron app to schedule automatic daily (or other interval) imports.
Flexible document types: Configure whether to import received invoices, issued invoices, or both.
No sensitive certificate management: Authentication with SAT is handled entirely by SW Sapien, so eFirma certificates never need to be stored in Invopop.
Check out our Mexico: Receiving invoices guide for step-by-step setup instructions. The app also supports importing issued invoices; refer to the configuration options below for details.
The following workflow actions will be available once you install and enable this app:
Register Efisco Party
Initiate the registration of a party with SW Sapien’s Efisco service, generating a link for uploading the e.firma (FIEL) certificate.
Import CFDIs from Efisco
Request CFDI downloads from SW Sapien’s Efisco service for a specified date range, wait for completion, and dispatch individual conversion jobs for each CFDI.
The following templates help you get started quickly. Use them as is or as a base for your own flows.
