Verified issue does not already exist?
What happened?
Summary: Imported a backup of my budget into a fresh docker install within TrueNas. Cleared the SimpleFin token and entered in the New token created. Click Link accounts after token entry, button spins and prompts for me to enter in my token again.
I can confirm the token entered is not making a successful connection to SimpleFIn to change status to "Claimed". I have tested locally using SimpleFIn Developer and verified the token does work. I did attempt to unlink all accounts to see if re-link prompt would display with no luck

Within pika pod, I have created a new token. After I enter nothing would sync with "SimpleFin Bad Token" BUT would show the account to link or remove link.
Within pika pod, I removed a link and re-added. Sync looked to function for all accounts BUT still through a "Internal error". Version 25 still currently.

Confirming this issue after upgrade to 25.3.1 (fresh import, removed link to simplefin and tried creating new connection with new token).
The error I am getting is:
Error: Invalid SimpleFIN access token. Reset the token and re-link any broken accounts.

I tried the same token with simplefin-transactions.py script and that worked (script can be found here https://gist.github.com/psybers/60e7332f93dc59f3ac5f636827921e17).
Few other things that I tried was:

Don't re use the token. Create a new token. Try after entering to unlink
and re link one account. Then bank re sync

I did. I created new token (fresh, unused by any other application), but for some reason ActualBudget is telling me that token is invalid.
@sokosoko333 commented on GitHub (Mar 7, 2025):
I also tried going to previous working version and that did not help (same error).
Then I deleted all data, and tried on fresh instance. That worked.
After that I re-imported my old data and now everything works.

I'm experiencing this issue, too. I have tried the following on Actual Budget 25.4.0 running in Docker:
Just to be sure my SimpleFin account was setup correctly, I used the script linked above with a different token and was able to successfully pull down data. So, I 'm pretty sure my SimpleFin account is setup correctly.
Any suggestions on what else to try?

Unlink an account and re link and test sync. Make sure you use a new fin
key

I haven't tried that, but given that the script above was able to pull down data from Simplefin, doesn't it seem likely that the problem is not with the Simplefin setup but with Actual Budget?
