Verified feature request does not already exist?

  • I have searched and found no existing issue

💻

  • Would you like to implement this feature?

Pitch: what problem are you trying to solve?

I've tried to create a GoCardless account today and was unable to find a way to create an account. Someone else has contacted their support and that the service is no longer being offered. A friend of mine noted that he couldn't add a new bank account to his existing login either.

Alternatives are few and far between and the only free option I could find is the Enable Banking API. I'd love to have an integration for it.

Describe your ideal solution to this problem

For those wondering, this is how to set it up:


Application configuration (redacted):

```text
Actual (*<generated_application_id>*)
Active
Environment: PRODUCTION
Services:

    Account Information Restricted

Description: Actual
Data protection email: _fill in_
Privacy policy URL: _fill in_
Terms of service URL: _fill in_
Redirect URLs:

    https://<fill_in_your_base_url>/enablebanking/auth_callback

Linked accounts:

    Bank 1: Account 1
    Bank 1: Account 2
    Bank 1: Account 3

After generating the application you'll get a <generated_application_id>.pem file, which you need to upload to Actual.

I linked my accounts, as Enable Banking seems to imply it's either that or ask to become unrestricted, whatever that means. This was quick and easy though, nice work @AurelDemiri 🎉

The exacts steps how to set up the bank sync are visible in #7795, but don't seem to work on Firefox. If you are using Firefox and it works (or doesn't), please chime in there. Chromium worked fine.
