Hi Michael,
The API isn’t returning a very good error message here. The root of
the problem is that you need to specify the gross value for the bank
transaction explanation in your request. At the moment new bank
transaction explanations don’t default to using the gross value of the
bank transaction.
Kind regards,

Hello,
Could anyone tell me what is wrong with the following api call:
curl https://api.freeagent.com/v2/bank_transaction_explanations
-H “Authorization: Bearer 1xxxxxxxxx”
-H “Accept: application/json”
-H “Content-type: application/json”
-X POST
-d ‘{ “bank_transaction_explanation”:
{
“bank_transaction”:“https://api.freeagent.com/v2/bank_transactions/8xxxxxx”,
“paid_user”:“https://api.freeagent.com/v2/users/3xxx”,
“dated_on”:“2011-05-16”
}
}’The response I’m getting back is:
{“errors”:[{“message”:“base Entry Type is invalid”}]}but according to the Docs for explaining a transaction as a smart user
payment only the paid user reference is required.Thanks for your help
