Endpoint: POST /v1/batch-query
Version: 2026-02-20
Security: bearerAuth

## Header parameters:

  - `Idempotency-Key` (string)
    Specify a unique idempotency key if you want to perform an idempotent POST or PATCH request. Do not use this header in other request types. 

With this header specified, the Zuora server can identify subsequent retries of the same request using this value, which prevents the same operation from being performed multiple times by accident.

  - `Accept-Encoding` (string)
    Include the Accept-Encoding: gzip header to compress responses as a gzipped file. It can significantly reduce the bandwidth required for a response. 

If specified, Zuora automatically compresses responses that contain over 1000 bytes of data, and the response contains a Content-Encoding header with the compression algorithm so that your client can decompress it.

  - `Content-Encoding` (string)
    Include the Content-Encoding: gzip header to compress a request. With this header specified, you should upload a gzipped file for the request payload instead of sending the JSON payload.

  - `Zuora-Entity-Ids` (string)
    An entity ID. If you have Zuora Multi-entity enabled and the OAuth token is valid for more than one entity, you must use this header to specify which entity to perform the operation in. If the OAuth token is only valid for a single entity, or you do not have Zuora Multi-entity enabled, you should not set this header.

  - `Zuora-Org-Ids` (string)
    Comma separated IDs. If you have Zuora Multi-Org enabled, 
you can use this header to specify which orgs to perform the operation in. If you do not have Zuora Multi-Org enabled, you should not set this header.

The IDs must be a sub-set of the user's accessible orgs. If you specify an org that the user does not have access to, the operation fails. This header is important in Multi-Org (MO) setups because it defines the organization context under which the API should operate—mainly used for read access or data visibility filtering. If the header is not set, the operation is performed in scope of the user's accessible orgs.

  - `Zuora-Track-Id` (string)
    A custom identifier for tracing the API call. If you set a value for this header, Zuora returns the same value in the response headers. This header enables you to associate your system process identifiers with Zuora API calls, to assist with troubleshooting in the event of an issue.

The value of this field must use the US-ASCII character set and must not include any of the following characters: colon (:), semicolon (;), double quote ("), and quote (').

  - `Zuora-Version` (string)
    The minor API version.

For a list of available minor versions, see API upgrades.

## Request fields (application/json):

  - `dateTimeUtc` (boolean)
    When using WSDL 69 and later you can ensure that the exported output of dateTime records are rendered according to ISO-8601 generic UTC form by setting dateTimeUtc to true.

When dateTimeUtc is set to true, exports of dateTime data types will be rendered in the following generic format: YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss-hhmm or YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss+hhmm.

Note: Regardless of what batchType query is used (zoql or zoqlexport), the query response output for datetime data types can be standardized by setting dateTimeUtc to true. When true, the results will display datetime types with the format: YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss+/-hhmm.

  - `format` (string)
    The format of the query. The default value is csv.
    Enum: "csv", "zip", "gzip"

  - `incrementalTime` (string)
    Allows you to override the time from which a Stateful AQuA job incrementally retrieves records that have been created or modified, using the incrementalTime parameter. For example, if you set incrementalTime = 2015-01-21 10:30:01, AQuA will retrieve records that have created or modified beginning at 10:30:01. If this parameter is not set, AQuA continues to use the Start Time of the last AQuA session to retrieve records incrementally.

The time zone of incrementalTime depends on which Zuora data center you use. For US Data Center customers, the time zone of incrementalTime is Pacific Time. For EU Data Center customers, the time zone of incrementalTime is UTC. If the time zone of your system is different from the time zone of incrementalTime, you will need to convert to the appropriate time zone before setting incrementalTime.

Note: This field can only be used in Stateful AQuA mode.

  - `name` (string)
    The name of the job. 32 character limit.

  - `notifyUrl` (string)
    If URL is provided, the AQuA job will call this notifyUrl once the job has completed. The value of notifyUrl needs to have ${JOBID} and ${STATUS} placeholders. These placeholders will be replaced by the actual job ID and status when returned in the response. Status will be Completed after the AQuA job is done.

If you submit an AQuA query with notifyUrl specified, the value of notifyUrl will be ignored if your organization has already configured a callout notification through the Zuora user interface.

  - `nullReplacement` (string)
    The string used to represent null values in the query results. If you do not set this parameter, null values are represented by the empty string in the query results.

  - `offset` (integer)
    This field specifies the time offset for AQuA queries in stateful mode. It is an integer in the range 0 to 3,600 seconds.

For example, if you set this field to 600 seconds and you post a query in stateful mode at 2:00 AM, it will query against data created or updated between the completion time of the previous query and 1:50 AM.

The value of this field will override the value you configured in Settings > Administration > AQuA API Stateful Mode Time Offset.

  - `partner` (string)
    The partner field indicates the unique ID of a data integration partner. The dropdown list of this field displays partner IDs for the past thirty days.
It must be used together with "project" field to uniquely identify a data integration target.

For example, if a continuous AQuA session is to retrieve data incrementally for a Salesforce.com Org 00170000011K3Ub, you can use partner as "Salesforce", and "project" as "00170000011K3Ub." 
This field is required only if you are using AQuA in stateful mode. Otherwise, if you are using AQuA in stateless mode, partner field can be null.

Note: Zuora highly recommends you use the stateless mode instead of the stateful mode to extract bulk data. See Bulk data extraction from Zuora using AQuA for best practices.
Note: Submit a request at Zuora Global Support to obtain a partner ID.

  - `project` (string)
    The project field contains the unique ID of a data integration project for a particular partner. The dropdown list of this field displays project IDs for the past thirty days.

This field must be used together with partner field to uniquely identify a data integration target. 

This field is required only if you are using AQuA in stateful mode. Otherwise, if you are using AQuA in stateless mode, partner field can be null.

  - `queries` (array)
    A JSON array object that contains a list of batch objects.
    Example: [{"query":"select AccountNumber, BillCycleDay from Account","type":"zoql"}]

  - `queries.apiVersion` (string)
    The API version for the query. If an API version is not specified, the latest version is used by default. Using the latest WSDL version is most useful for reporting use cases. For integration purposes, specify the WSDL version to ensure consistent query behavior, that is, what is supported and included in the response returned by the API.

Note: As of API version 69 and later, Zuora changed the format of certain fields. See Date Field Changes in the SOAP API for more information and a list of affected fields.

  - `queries.convertToCurrencies` (string)
    The currencies that you want to convert transaction amounts into. You can specify any number of currencies. Specify the currencies using their ISO currency codes and separate each currency with a comma, for example, "EUR,GBP,JPY".

See Convert Transaction Amounts Into Any Currency for more information and examples.

To use this field, you must have Foreign Currency Conversion enabled and you must be using API version 78 or later.

  - `queries.deleted` (array)
    This field indicates that the AQuA incremental load will retrieve deleted records.

If you want to export deleted data, this field is required.

Note: AQuA API is subject to Zuora Data Retention Policy. The retention period of deleted data is 30 days. You can only retrieve deleted data for 30 days through AQuA.

  - `queries.deleted.column` (string)
    Name of the Column in the extracted file that points to the deleted records.

  - `queries.deleted.format` (string)
    Can be set to either Numeric or Boolean. If set to Numeric, deleted records are marked as 1. If set to Boolean, deleted records are marked as true.

  - `queries.name` (string)

    Specify the source this aggregate query runs against:

* LIVE represents the live transactional databases at Zuora (Data Query Live).
If this field is not specified, the default value LIVE will be used.
    Enum: "LIVE"

  - `useQueryLabels` (boolean)
    When this optional flag is set to true the request will use object and field API names for the CSV header output instead of the field labels. Data integration projects should set useQueryLabels to true so that API names remain the same.

By default useQueryLabels is false, so that output CSV headers display the more user-friendly object and field labels.

  - `version` (number)
    The API version you want to use. 

The supported versions are as follows:
  - 1.1. It supports both modes
  - 1.0. Default. It supports stateless modes only.
