Differentiating between if a transaction is payment made or payment received

Open bumble-bee-chuna opened this issue 2 years ago • 4 comments

Hello!

I am grabbing a transaction list through the client.user.get_user_transactions(user_id=user.id, callback=callback) method.

While going through the Transaction object, I wasn't sure what attribute denotes whether it was a payment received vs a payment was made.

Any pointers would be fabulous! Ty 😸

@bumble-bee-chuna Wondering how you got access to the api. Where can I get a key?

@navincodesalot

You can initialize venmo in python using the following

from venmo_api import Client

# request an access token from venmo, will require sms authentication
access_token = Client.get_access_token(username="username",
                                       password="password")
# initialize venmo api
venmo = Client(access_token=access_token)

Davis8483 @Davis8483 Ah so its not API key. Its your login. Just wondering is it legal use reverse engineered apis for Venmo?
