API changelog
Every change to the Kintsugi API and every release, newest first. Breaking changes carry the mark. Tenanted releases are dated, and you choose one with the Api-Version header.

Requires a non-empty userId for imports started with an API keyImports
On POST /imports/initiate and POST /imports/upload-urls, whether you send userId now depends on your credential. With an API key it is required and must not be blank: a missing userId answers 400 with code invalid_request instead of 422, and an empty or whitespace-only value, accepted before, is now refused the same way. With a signed-in user session, userId is optional and ignored, and the import is recorded under that user.
- With an API key, always send a non-empty
userIdthat names the person or process uploading. - Expect
400with codeinvalid_request, not422, whenuserIdis missing.
Lists imports newest firstImports
GET /imports now lists imports by createdAt, newest first, so a new upload appears on the first page. Before, the order did not follow upload time. Paging stays stable while new imports arrive, and a cursor issued before this change answers 400 with code stale_cursor.
- Expect the newest import first.
- On
stale_cursor, start again from the first page without a cursor.
Counts your importsImports
GET /imports/summary returns total, the number of imports across every organization your credential can access, or one organization when you send a selector such as Organization-Id. Archived imports are counted, so total can be higher than the number GET /imports lists.

LatestTenanted APIIntroducing the Tenanted API
A fresh foundation for building on Kintsugi. The Tenanted API is versioned by date, and you choose the release you build against. It speaks one consistent dialect from end to end: clean paths, camelCase fields, exact decimal amounts, and a single error format. And it is built for scale, with one credential reaching every organization it owns.
Compared with v1
| Topic | v1 | 2026-07-21 |
|---|---|---|
| Versioning | The /v1 path prefix | The Api-Version header, dated YYYY-MM-DD. Optional; without it, a request runs against the launch release |
| Paths | /v1/transactions | /transactions |
| Authentication | x-api-key | Api-Key. Endpoints that manage people accept a signed-in session token instead |
| Choosing an organization | x-organization-id, required on almost every request | One credential reaches every organization it owns. Narrow a request with Organization-Id, Connection-Id, or Entity-Id |
| Field names | snake_case | camelCase |
| Money and rates | Decimal strings out, numbers or strings in | Decimal strings at a fixed scale: amounts to 2 places, rates to 9 |
| Timestamps | No single documented format | RFC 3339 in UTC, always ending in Z |
| Errors | Shapes vary by endpoint | One envelope everywhere: code, message, requestId, and errors |
| Portfolio | Not available | Portfolio and Portfolio Reseller endpoints, for partner accounts |
Moving an integration from v1
- Send
Api-Version: 2026-07-21with every request, so your integration stays on this release until you decide to move. - Drop
/v1from your paths. - Send your key as
Api-Key, and replacex-organization-idwithOrganization-Idwherever you target one organization. - Rename fields to camelCase, and read every amount as a decimal string, never a float.
- Branch on the error
code, not the message or the HTTP status, and quoterequestIdwhen you contact support.
Creating a transaction answers 202 Accepted straight away, and tax is calculated just after. Check processingStatus before you read the tax totals.
v1
LegacyThe original Kintsugi API, versioned in the path. It remains the default in these docs and is documented exactly as before, so existing integrations can keep running with confidence. New integrations should start on the Tenanted API.
