Automatic table downloads can be easily developed using our HTTPS table download feature through https://tables.Zip2Tax.com. Pass in your username and password as request variables in the query string.
For a quick demonstration, copy and paste the following in your browser:
https://tables.zip2tax.com?usr=<USERNAME>&pwd=<PASSWORD>&id=<ID>
Instead of a web page, you will receive a file to save or open.
This is intended to be non-interactive, so you may use the programming language of your choice to make the HTTP request. To request the list of table(s) you have purchased (including their ID numbers), use an ID of 0. Successive ID numbers will download your corresponding table(s). These items will be sent in .csv format with a heading row. Various error messages may also be returned as strings of plain text. Lines are terminated <CR><LF>.
Optionally, if you need to retrieve tables for a previous month, append the desired date to the query string like this:
&date=<YYYY>-<MM>
Note: Opening table files with MS-Excel (using Excel's default settings) modifies some versions of the tables in ways that will make them incompatible with certain shopping carts. You may open the files for your viewing with Excel, but do not save the tables from Excel. Instead, choose "Save As" rather than the "Open" when downloading the tables.
This interface is intended for developers to automate the download process. To manually download a table each month, log into your Subscriber Web Portal.
