POST /processor/balance/get

The /processor/balance/get endpoint returns the real-time balance for each of an Item's accounts. While other endpoints may return a balance object, only /processor/balance/get forces the available and current balance fields to be refreshed rather than cached.

Request body fields

Name Type Required Description
client_id String No

Your Plaid API client_id. The client_id is required and may be provided either in the PLAID-CLIENT-ID header or as part of a request body.

options Object No

Optional parameters to /processor/balance/get.

options.min_last_updated_datetime String No

Timestamp in ISO 8601 format (YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm:ssZ) indicating the oldest acceptable balance when making a request to /accounts/balance/get.

This field is only necessary when the institution is ins_128026 (Capital One), and one or more account types being requested is a non-depository account (such as a credit card) as Capital One does not provide real-time balance for non-depository accounts. In this case, a value must be provided or an INVALID_REQUEST error with the code of INVALID_FIELD will be returned. For all other institutions, as well as for depository accounts at Capital One (including all checking and savings accounts) this field is ignored and real-time balance information will be fetched.

If this field is not ignored, and no acceptable balance is available, an INVALID_RESULT error with the code LAST_UPDATED_DATETIME_OUT_OF_RANGE will be returned.

processor_token String Yes

The processor token obtained from the Plaid integration partner. Processor tokens are in the format: processor-<environment>-<identifier>

secret String No

Your Plaid API secret. The secret is required and may be provided either in the PLAID-SECRET header or as part of a request body.
