Transactions

Read transaction by account

Requests to this endpoint will return the attributes of the specified transaction. To read a manual transaction, use the manual transaction guid in the path as the transactionGuid.

Enhanced transaction data may be requested using the includes parameter. To use this optional parameter, the value should include the optional metadata requested such as repeating_transactions, merchants, classifications, geolocations. For more information, see the Optional Enhancement Query Parameter guide.

Query Parameters

includes

string

Options for enhanced transactions. This query parameter is optional. Possible additional metadata: repeating_transactions, merchants, classifications, geolocations. The query value is format sensitive. To retrieve all available enhancements, append:

?includes=repeating_transactions,merchants,classifications,geolocations.

The query options may be combined to specific enhancements. For example, to request Repeating Transactions and Geolocation data, use:

?includes=repeating_transactions,geolocations.

Repeating Transactions: Identifies transactions with predictable recurrence patterns (e.g., Bill, Income, Subscription).
Merchants: Enriches transactions with merchant name.
Classifications: Provides more insight into the type of money movement that is occurring on the transaction, whether it be retail or investments.
Geolocation: Provides geographic metadata.

The status of the transaction.

All transaction data on our systems represent what we get through our data feed which depends what institutions make available for aggregation. Many institutions do not provide data for pending transactions; transactions from those accounts always have a status of POSTED.

When we do receive data for pending transactions, a single transaction may be updated from PENDING to POSTED and keep the same guid. This is done through various matching methods performed automatically by MX.

If a single transaction can't be updated, the PENDING transaction will often be deleted and replaced with a new POSTED transaction (with a new guid) when it is sent to us; this is the most common scenario when pending data is available.

In unusual circumstances, there may be separate PENDING and POSTED transactions on MX systems for up to 14 days. All PENDING transactions are deleted after 14 days as a failsafe.

Available options:

POSTED,

PENDING

Example:

"POSTED"
