Transaction History

The Starling API provides access to full transaction history. This history is wrapped in the TransactionHistory class, which provides methods for summarising and visualising this data.

from starlingpy.StarlingClass import TransactionHistory
tH = TransactionHistory(Account,start_date="2021-02-17T00:00:00Z",end_date="2022-02-24T00:00:00Z")

The TransactionHistory object stores the full historical information in a dataframe, and also provides an abridged summary dataframe.

TransactionHistory can also be accessed using the member function generate_transaction_history:

tH = Account.generate_transaction_history(start_date="2021-02-17T00:00:00Z",end_date="2022-02-24T00:00:00Z")
