Inserting this into the GnuCash code I think is unrealistic for the apparently few users and specific use-case. One could, I suppose, use a Python to extract the relevant data and interact with the HMRC API as a separate application that has access to the GnuCash data book. I imagine extracting the required data should be (relatively) easy, and (simply) interfacing with HMRC is all that's required from there. I signed up as a developer and have written some python that gets through the oauth2 part. I'm now trying to interface with the "Individual Tax" API. Just getting various errors at the moment but that's better than yesterday. I've no idea yet as to what data is required to push to the API, I can't find any relevant info. This should be on the devel list perhaps.
