Mmmm. Technically, you don't have to set -X POST when you submit things. But a 405 is surprising.

Is there a reverse proxy between you and Firefly III?

[Sorglos3D]

could you not even give me a json that works. that practically makes a booking to an account with +10 euro and once with -10 euro. because not even the json described in the api doc works. and it doesn't say what types of transactions there are. which makes things really difficult

[JC5]

It's perfectly valid JSON.

You need to submit:

As per the API: https://api-docs.firefly-iii.org/#/transactions/storeTransaction

The source and destination account can be tricky, but what you need is:

• For a withdrawal: source must be an "asset account", destination must be an "expense account". You can either submit either _id or _name (for source and destination) but for source the account MUST exist.
• For a deposit: source must be a "revenue" and the destination an asset.
• For a transfer: asset accounts on both sides.

i have forgott the -H 'accept: application/vnd.api+json' :-)

but now i get 422

curl "http://firefly.web.mein.lan/api/v1/transactions" -H "Authorization: Bearer eyJ......" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "accept: application/vnd.api+json" -d '{"apply_rules":true,"fire_webhooks":true,"transactions":[{"type":"Deposit","date":"2025-01-07T13:48:00+01:00","amount":"123","description":"no comment","source_id":5,"destination_id":1}]}'

{"jsonapi":{"version":"1.0"},"errors":[{"detail":"Need at least one transaction.","source":{"pointer":"/transactions/0/description"},"status":"422"}]}`
