  • Set a payment's category via the API

Hey,

while I love the automatic categorization of payments, it is not always 100% accurate for my cases (especially PayPal confuses it a lot). I can fetch the last transactions via the API no problem, but I cannot figure out how to change the transaction's category.

I would like to so some payment matching in an application on my PC that updates that category according to criteria that I hardcode into the app. At least that is my plan. I read, that the bunq App is built off the API, so imagine there must be a way to update the category because I can do so via the app. Any pointers on how I can achieve this? How is this done in the app?

    @Bastiaan#191073 Thanks for the quick reply!

    That is a bummer :( Is there a plan to include it in the Public API? The listing itself does not really help me in this case :/

      @T4cC0re#191075 That's a good question! I don't know, unfortunately.
      Maybe @lexy-Blue-Panda can help us with this question.

        @T4cC0re#191075 Hi Hendrik 👋 Are you building it for yourself or are you planning to share it with the community? 😉
        I'll put it on our list.

          @lexy-Blue-Panda#191198 Primarily for myself, but I plan to release the code. So anyone interested can use it if they feel like it :)
          Thanks a lot! :)
