Completed 2023-07-10: Deprecation of the use of bankAccounts and bankTransactions data types for banking data connections

On July 10, 2023, Codat will deprecate the use of bankAccounts and bankTransactions data types for syncing banking data connections via Plaid, TrueLayer and Basiq. The use of these data types for accounting data connections will remain unchanged.

Requests made to the following endpoints for banking data connections will no longer trigger a sync:

• POST /companies/{companyId}/data/queue/bankAccounts
• POST /companies/{companyId}/data/queue/bankTransactions

After the change is implemented, a call to either of these endpoints for a Plaid, TrueLayer, or Basiq data connection ID will return a 400 response.

Action required​

If you haven't already done so, switch to using the banking data types: banking-accounts and banking-transactions. Enable these in your settings in the Portal.

You will also need to update any parts of your code that expect the response body from the banking-accounts and banking-transactions endpoints. For examples of the new response bodies for these data types, refer to the API reference.

Expected impact if no action is taken​

After July 10, 2023, calls made using bankAccounts and bankTransactions data types for a Plaid, TrueLayer or Basiq data connection ID will return a 400 error:
