Bendigo and Adelaide Bank Categories API

Categories enable understanding where your money goes by driving powerful insights in Up. All categories in Up are pre-defined and are automatically assigned to new purchases in most cases. A parent-child relationship is used to represent categories, however parent categories cannot be directly assigned to transactions.

Operations 3

GET /categories List categories
GET /categories/{id} Retrieve category
PATCH /transactions/{transactionId}/relationships/category Categorize transaction
