This release covers **3 pull requests.**

## Highlights

- Xero Connect asks for payments, so Xero payments come back to Flow; a connection made before this release needs one Connect again. ([#207](https://github.com/arcforgelabs/flow/pull/207))
- A Xero resource that Xero refuses tries again by itself after 6, 12 and 24 hours, with no person needed when the cause clears. ([#207](https://github.com/arcforgelabs/flow/pull/207))
- One refused Xero resource is a warning, not a stop: other Xero calls still work. ([#207](https://github.com/arcforgelabs/flow/pull/207))
- Report a problem fills in the signed-in person's email and name, so support can reply. ([#212](https://github.com/arcforgelabs/flow/pull/212))
- Report a problem opens with a clean form each time, with no old screenshot error. ([#212](https://github.com/arcforgelabs/flow/pull/212))

## Changes

- Xero Connect asks for `accounting.payments.read`. ([#207](https://github.com/arcforgelabs/flow/pull/207))

## Fixes

- A refused Xero resource retries by itself and no longer stops the other Xero calls. ([#207](https://github.com/arcforgelabs/flow/pull/207))
- Report a problem prefills the email and clears an old screenshot error on reopen. ([#212](https://github.com/arcforgelabs/flow/pull/212))
