Getting API Keys

Up Bank API

If you already have an Up Bank API key, you can skip this section.

Head to https://api.up.com.au/getting_started and follow the instructions to get a key. Note it down.

YNAB API Key

Head to https://app.youneedabudget.com/settings/developer and create a new Personal Access Token. Note it down.

Setting Up Account Mappings

  1. Copy src/accountMapping.example.json to src/accountMapping.json.
  2. In accountMapping.json, leave the transactional and catchall account but create one entry per Up Saver you'd like to map out. Any savers you don't explicitly map out will have their transactions go into the catchall account. The names are aesthetic and just help you to connect the accounts, they don't need to match anything else.
  3. Run the following, replacing <UP_API_KEY> with your Up API Key.
curl https://api.up.com.au/api/v1/accounts -G -H 'Authorization: Bearer <UP_API_KEY>'
# Response should contain one transactional account, and as many savers as you have.
  1. For the transactional account and each saver you have in accountMapping.json, replace the upId with the relevant id from the curl response.
  2. In YNAB, create a new account for the Up Transaction account, each Saver you have mapped and a catchall account.
  3. For each mapping in accountMapping.json, open the YNAB account, your URL should look like https://app.youneedabudget.com/zzzzzzzz-zzzz-zzzz-zzzz-zzzzzzzzzzzz/accounts/yyyyyyyy-yyyy-yyyy-yyyy-yyyyyyyyyyyy. Take the yyyyyyyy-yyyy-yyyy-yyyy-yyyyyyyyyyyy portion and set the ynabId in accountMapping.json.

Env File

  1. Copy .env.example to .env
  2. Leave UP_WEBHOOK_SECRET unpopulated (we will populate it as part of the first deployment).
  3. Populate the other fields.
    • You can get your YNAB Budget ID by visiting you budget in YNAB. Your URL will look like https://app.youneedabudget.com/xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx. The xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx portion is your YNAB Budget ID.

Deploying

If you have specific AWS credentials for deploying this, please replace the value of profile in serverless.yml. If you don't, then remove the profile config entirely.

First Deployment

You'll need to do an additional deployment the first time you deploy in order to get the API Gateway URL and create the webhook in Up.

  1. Run yarn sls deploy.
  2. When it succeeds, you'll see:
Service Information
service: up-bank-ynab-transformer
stage: prod
region: us-east-1
stack: up-bank-ynab-transformer-prod
resources: 12
api keys:
  None
endpoints:
  POST - https://xxxxxx.execute-api.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/prod/webhook/up
functions:
  upWebhookHandler: up-bank-ynab-transformer-prod-upWebhookHandler
layers:
  None
  1. Note down the POST endpoint value (e.g. https://xxxxxx.execute-api.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/prod/webhook/up).
  2. Run the following, replacing <UP_API_KEY> with your Up API Key, and <ENDPOINT> with the POST endpoint.
curl https://api.up.com.au/api/v1/webhooks \
  -XPOST \
  -H 'Authorization: Bearer <UP_API_KEY>' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --data-binary '{
    "data": {
      "attributes": {
        "url": "<ENDPOINT>",
        "description": "Prod YNAB webook"
      }
    }
  }'
  1. The response will contain a secretKey. Set the value of UP_WEBHOOK_SECRET in .env with this value.
  2. Run yarn sls deploy again.
