I'm trying to categorise transactions that I get from a bank API for a spending tracking application.
For example, is the following transaction for groceries, a restaurant visit, or something else?
{
'accountingDate': '2018-06-01T00:00:00+02:00',
'amount': -1014.08,
'cardDetailsSpecified': False,
'interestDate': '2018-06-01T00:00:00+02:00',
'isReservation': False,
'otherAccountNumberSpecified': False,
'reservationType': None,
'source': 1,
'text': '01.06 EXTRA A. JENSENSGT TØNSBERG',
'transactionId': '774773805000451813',
'transactionType': 'VARER',
'transactionTypeCode': 710,
'transactionTypeText': 'VARER'
}
The text field here is key – the other fields don't say anything useful about the transaction in question. This particular store – Extra – is a supermarket, so I would put it in the Groceries category.
Some other examples:
*2940 06.06 NOK 10.00 ITUNES.COM/BILL Kurs: 1.0000 (Cloud storage)*2940 06.06 NOK 999.00 MEDIUMTALL.NO Kurs: 1.0000 (Online clothing store)11.06 REMA CHR. KROHG CHRISTIAN KR OSLO (Liquor store)*2940 18.06 NOK 455.00 FINN SCHJOELL BLOMSTER AS Kurs: 1.0000 (Florist)Are you familiar with any API or some other way to categorise these transactions? I guess I could build a solution myself, but it seems like a lot of trouble.
