# Generate an e-invoice file for an invoice

`PUT /v1/invoices/{invoiceKey}/einvoice/generate`

Generates an e-invoice file for an invoice. 
If the invoice status is **Failed** during e-invoice generation, you can use  **Regenerate E-Invoice**. Once you fix the errors and trigger the regeneration,  the system will resubmit the document to the e-invoicing service provider,  and its status will update to **Processing**.
