Generating transaction IDs / accessing historical data

[ebai101]

I'm writing a script that uses SimpleFIN to fill a spreadsheet, and I'd like to be able to manually import CSVs or QFX files downloaded from bank websites to fill out missing data, since it seems like SimpleFIN only provides about 6 months of data. I'm wondering if it's possible to generate transaction IDs in a similar manner to those returned from the SimpleFIN API, so that I can more easily compare the data from the API and my manual import files.

It seems like the transaction IDs are UUID4s with a prefix, so this may not be possible. However, if there's a way to access further historical data, even if it's limited to six months at a time, that'd solve the problem. Any help is appreciated.

We get the IDs from our provider and they are an opaque UUID. I don't know, but I would guess that they are randomly assigned (UUID4). It won't be possible to derive matching IDs for historical transaction, unfortunately.
