On June 24, 2024, we introduced the transactions.days_requested option for a /link/token/create request, enabling you to tailor the transaction history length of an Item to meet your integration requirements. If left unspecified, this option defaults to a 90-day transaction history for the Item. The maximum allowable value is 730 days, allowing for the retrieval of up to two years of transaction data for an Item.

\n

Should an Item be created on or after June 24, 2024, with only three months of transaction data, please verify that you have specified a value for the transactions.days_requested option in your /link/token/create request. Once an Item is created and has received its historical pull of transaction information, its transaction history length cannot be extended except by deleting and then recreating the Item with the desired transactions.days_requested value.

\n

Please note there is also the days_requested option available in requests to our /transactions/get or /transactions/sync Transactions endpoints. This option only applies to calls for Items that were not initialized with Transactions during Link and are now adding the Transactions product to the Item for the first time. If Transactions has already been added to the Item prior, then this field will have no effect on future requests to either /transactions/get or /transactions/sync.
