The Transaction Import Connector is a Sage Provider API (PAPI) connector which has a range of features which are intended for the scenario when a customer’s bank account doesn’t have a provider feed of account information directly available to Banking Service. The purpose of the Transaction Import Connector, is to provide the ability for customers to manually import bank transactions through a range of different supported file formats.

Use cases

  1. A customer’s bank account doesn’t have a provider feed of transactions available directly from the bank and they’re waiting for a feed to become available.
  2. A customer wanting to ‘top up’ transactions which are not available directly from the bank.

Access token

A JWT may be generated using the accessToken api endpoint (with requires a signature generated using the standard authorisation method). This JWT can then be provided as a Bearer token in the Authorisation header: ‘Bearer ‘.

Sage has assembled a Postman collection to illustrate the Transaction Import Connector API methods and workflow. The Postman collection includes the functionality to POST an organisation, and request a JWT.
