Summary

Updates a Buxfer transaction by ID, sending the selected fields to Buxfer’s transaction edit endpoint. Choose fields in the optional Fields to Update collection; transaction type controls which type-specific fields are used.

Inputs

  • Transaction ID (required) — ID of the transaction to update.
  • Fields to Update — Optionally set description, amount, date, account, type, status, or tags. Dates are formatted as YYYY-MM-DD; selected tag IDs are resolved to tag names. For shared bills, you can set payers, sharers, and even split; for loans, loaned by and borrowed by; for paid-for-friend transactions, paid by and paid for. Type-specific values are included when the corresponding type is selected in this update.

Output shape

A single transaction response object per input item, returned as n8n JSON.

The response body is unwrapped from Buxfer’s response field; if it is absent, an empty object is returned. Errors stop execution unless Continue On Fail is enabled, in which case an error object is returned for that item.
