Current User

FreshBooks users are uniquely identified by their email across the entire product. One user may act on several Businesses in different ways, and the Identity model is how to keep track of it. Each unique user has an Identity, and each Identity has Business Memberships which define the permissions they have.

See FreshBooks API - Business, Roles, and Identity and FreshBooks API - The Identity Model.

The current user can be accessed by:

$identity = $freshBooksClient->currentUser()
echo $identity.email // prints the current user's email

// Print name and role of each business the user is a member of
foreach ($identity.businessMemberships as $businessMembership) {
    echo $businessMembership->business.name
    echo $businessMembership->role; // eg. owner
}
