How to get INSTANT RESPONSE from Quickbooks Desktop

votes

I'm using quickbooks-php to query/add customer from quickbooks desktop.

At this point, I want to write some rest apis to put new customer to quickbooks desktop and get instant response with customer's ID from QB.

I'm not sure even I can get instant reply from the qbxml query to quickbooks desktop.

What is the best experience for this one?

Using the library you linked to, you can't. It uses the Web Connector, and the Web Connector doesn't support real-time communication with QuickBooks.

If you want to, you can either use the QuickBooks SDK directly (C#, but be aware you'll have a lot of wrapper code to write if you want to make that work over HTTP or via a web service/website of any sort) or use a third-party solution (e.g. Autofy).
