Qonto and Cegid Loop offer several integration methods for retrieving your accounting data. Depending on your setup, you can retrieve purchase and sales invoices, bank transactions, or for Accountants, set up a full synchronization of accounting entries via the Qontable Space API.
☝️ If you are an Accountant, you must have an Accountant access to access your clients' files via the Qontable Space. If not, ask your clients to invite you as an Accountant on their account. The Qonto Basic plan does not allow this invitation.
How can I retrieve purchase and sales invoices in Cegid Loop?
The Qonto → Loop integration allows automatic retrieval of all purchase and sales invoices in Cegid Loop, including unpaid invoices and those matched to bank transactions.
Activating automatic integration
This integration is available starting from the Qonto Smart plan.
- If you are a Qonto client, log into your account and go to the menu Tools > Integrations
- If you are an Accountant, you can also do this on behalf of your client: log into the relevant Qonto client file via your Qontable Space and access the same menu Tools > Integrations
- Select the category Accounting
- Search for Cegid Loop and follow the instructions to connect the account

How can I set up automatic synchronization of accounting entries?
Full automatic synchronization of accounting entries (purchases, sales, expense reports, bank) and their attachments is available via the Qontable Space API, reserved for Accountants.
Qonto clients subscribed to the Business plan or higher can also access Qonto pre-accounting to generate entry files. For more information, see the article: How do I do my pre-accounting with Qonto?
For Accountants: install the Cegid Loop API from the Qontable Space
- Log into your Qontable Space and access the Integrations menu
- Then click the Start button at the bottom of the integrations page:
For full API configuration and operation, see the dedicated article: How do APIs work to synchronize my accounting entries with Qonto?
- Once the connection is established:
- The accounting reference of each file (chart of accounts, auxiliary accounts, journal codes) is automatically retrieved from Cegid Loop to your Qontable Space
- The entries generated by Qonto (purchases, sales, expense reports, bank entries) are synchronized to Cegid Loop upon validation
- You can modify API settings and connect new files from the Integrations page of the Qontable Space
Manual export of entries to Cegid Loop (for Accountants via Qontable Space or for Clients with Business plan or higher)
