When to Use Which Endpoint

Response Format

All responses: { success: true, data: {...}, meta: { requestId, timestamp } }

Money values are in cents (integer) with a currency field. Divide by 100 for display. Example: 45840017 = $458,400.17

Common categories for filtering: FOOD_AND_DRINK, RENT_AND_UTILITIES, TRANSPORTATION, GENERAL_MERCHANDISE, TRANSFER_OUT, TRANSFER_IN, LOAN_PAYMENTS, ENTERTAINMENT, PERSONAL_CARE, MEDICAL, TRAVEL, INCOME, UNCATEGORIZED

Rate Limits

• SuperNova: 100 requests/hour
• Galaxy: 1,000 requests/hour

Delta Polling

For efficient monitoring, use --since with the timestamp of your last request:
