Categories missing in the full categories list

Hey,

It seems that some categories are not being returned when doing a full
listing at /categories.

The ones that are certainly missing are the ones which are hyphenated, e.g.
602-1 to 602-4. I can get them directly at categories/602-4 but they aren’t
returned in the list.

Can this be fixed, or am I missing something?

Thanks,
Phil

Hi Ioan,

Thanks for the reply, and sorry for my delay. In our application we cache
the categories list so that we can later determine which category a
individual bank account entry is categorised into. Without the full list I
can’t determine which category a bank transaction belongs to when it says
it’s category is 602-4.

Thanks,

Hi Philip,

This is intentional, and the resources available under /v2/categories will
tie in with the Journal Sets API work in the future, which will use the
accounts exposed there. It is ok at the moment to fetch these subaccounts
using e.g. /categories/602-4, but keep in mind this is unsupported and
might not be available in the future.

Is there any reason why you need to fetch these?

Best regards,
Ioan
