E-INVOICE - How to check the status of an e-invoice?

When creating an invoice Record (TRANSACTION::INVOICE), a transmission Record (E_INVOICE::TRANSMISSION) is also created alongside to track the delivery of the e-invoice. 

Step 1: Retrieve the TRANSACTION::INVOICE Record

When creating a TRANSACTION::INVOICE, save the record id from the API response. Then retrieve it using:

GET /records/{{record_id}}

In the response, check the content.logs field:

• If it contains entries with "severity": "ERROR", the invoice failed validation before any transmission was attempted. To resolve the issue, review the error message, correct the request payload accordingly, and create a new TRANSACTION::INVOICE Record with a new idempotency key.
• If content.logs is empty, validation passed and the e-invoice was submitted for transmission. Proceed to Step 2.

Step 2: Retrieve the E_INVOICE::TRANSMISSION Record

In the TRANSACTION::INVOICE response from Step 1, locate the content.used_in.id field. This is the ID of the E_INVOICE::TRANSMISSION Record. Retrieve it using:

GET /records/{{content.used_in.id}}

Check the content.logs field:

• If it contains ERROR entries, the e-invoice could not be delivered over the e-invoice network. The message field describes what went wrong. To resolve the issue, review the error message, correct the request payload accordingly, and create a new TRANSACTION::INVOICE Record with a new idempotency key. 
  If the error indicates a network or infrastructure issue, retry after a short delay. 
  If the issue persists, contact fiskaly support.

   

• If content.logs is empty on both Records, the transmission may still be in progress. E-invoice delivery is handled asynchronously and typically completes within seconds to minutes. 
  If the logs remain empty after several minutes, contact fiskaly support.

Reading a log entry

Each log entry contains the following fields:

Example

[
  {
    "$": "Log@v1",
    "date": "2026-05-13T08:32:18.214995449Z",
    "message": "invalid Belgian VAT ID length '12'",
    "severity": "ERROR"
  },
  {
    "$": "Log@v1",
    "date": "2026-05-13T08:32:18.30059009Z",
    "message": "e_invoicing failed: code: invalid format.",
