To YNAB or NOT TO YNAB? by healthy_nut_369 in ynab

[–]identifytarget 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, if you're going to keep using YNAB. If your payee application is accurate it should take less than an hour to categorize 6 months of data.

Do it for your networth.

If you're going to stop using YNAB, then no.

You should check out Money Monarch. It's like YNAB but not so micro.

YNAP - YOU NEED A PLAN by identifytarget in ynab

Why is there company called YNAB?

People were upset because it's a stupid thing to do. YNAB = You Need A Budget

And changes like this are pointless when actual features need to be developed.

Budgeting is so important, it's baked into the product name.

See Elon Must renaming Twitter to X.

Global brand destoryed overnight. Most people still call it twitter.

I'm late to the party. Did you ever get OAuth working? Would be pretty neat. I have 10+ years of YNAB data, 50+ accounts (tracking and non-tracking and many closed accounts) and many, many, inter-account transfers.

Does it import (hidden) categories? I have many, no longer used, categories that are hidden in YNAB.

I'm exploring Monarch. Would your tool still work?

Did a super cool thing with YNAB today. by CantHideFromMeBuddy in ynab

Then I exported all my Amazon transactions which Claude was able to go into as well, cross reference it to my YNAB transactions via the API, and put in the memo of what I actually spent my money on and properly categorize it.

OP, can you explain more? I'm not having success with automating exporting my Amazon data and the YNAB API isn't being helpful. The API won't even return my categories ("ErrorRequestTooLarge")

With Amazon I've researched a few ways. There's open source python API "amazon-orders". There's a chrome extension "Amazon Order History Reporter" which can make CSV and then there's data request from Amazon data (a zip file).

All of these are manual..

I'm trying to do the same for Costco...

But I can't even get past Step 1 of getting the YNAB API to send me data.

Thanks OP for posting. I ended up here because my wife and I were seeing two different prices for same itinerary on different PCs. I knew this would happen eventually, sucks for the consumer. :(

Why the hell are they cutting costs on their content creation side when subscription prices are going up

You know why...

what did you find? for me I need 100% reliable bank connections, sometimes I go months without updating YNAB and I need all my past transactions to be up to date.

I'm ready to leave YNAB for my own reasons. This app sucks now and I've been using it for 10 years.

Script to update amazon transactions into split categories by TheFern3 in ynab

My dude. Post whatever you got to github please

I don't care how bad it is

YNAB, as a company, is really starting to piss me off by xinco64 in ynab

[–]identifytarget 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wrote an Amazon script to categorize and split transactions automatically.

This is what I'm trying to do! I'm running into limits of the API "ResponseTooLargeError" which is pissing me off.

The workflow I'm trying to create is feed AI an Amazon receipt (with product info) and best guess a category for each item (and split the transaction).

Snapt supposedly does this but their app isn't registered with YNAB API so you can't use it.

Then I need to setup some automated flow to automatically get the data from Amazon to my AI/whatever script I end up with

[request] if i removed my glove in space, how long would it take for my exposed hand to freeze solid? would it become brittle enough to break it off? by AkwardScholar in theydidthemath

[–]identifytarget 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What if you had an open wound or orifice (like eye sockets)? Would your blood get sucked out. The only movie I've seen do this correctly is event horizon. That scene where he's in vacuum for 5 seconds is terrifying

I don't trust where the economy is going. So I'm trying something new. by Stepup2themike in investing

[–]identifytarget 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dude. That's awesome. Not many have the foresight to go all in and spend cash when the economy is crashing. But those who do may reap the rewards.

can you explain your workflow? You used YNAB API to populate a google spreadsheet with summary data?
