API DOCUMENTATION

Convert bank statements programmatically

// GETTING STARTED

The BSC API allows you to convert PDF bank statements to Excel (.xlsx) or CSV format programmatically. All API conversions count against your plan's monthly page limit and appear in your "Recent" conversions list.

1. Subscribe to any paid plan

2. Generate an API token from the API Access section on the main page

3. Send requests with your token in the Authorization header

// AUTHENTICATION

All API requests require a Bearer token. Include it in the Authorization header:

Authorization: Bearer bsc_your_token_here

Tokens are shown only once when generated. If you lose a token, revoke it and create a new one.

// CONVERT ENDPOINT

`403`	No active subscription
`429`	Page limit reached

// OUTPUT FORMATS

> Normal: bank info header, column names, styled rows

> Minimal: raw transaction rows only, no headers or styling

> Minimal: transaction rows only — date,description,amount,balance,reference,counterparty

// EXAMPLES

Convert to Excel:

curl -X POST "/api/v1/convert?format=xlsx" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN" \
  -F "file=@statement.pdf" \
  --output converted.xlsx

Convert to CSV:

curl -X POST "/api/v1/convert?format=csv" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN" \
  -F "file=@statement.pdf" \
  --output converted.csv

Minimal CSV (data only, no headers):

curl -X POST "/api/v1/convert?format=csv&minimal=true" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN" \
  -F "file=@statement.pdf" \
  --output data.csv

// USAGE & LIMITS

API conversions share your plan's monthly page limit. Each page of an uploaded PDF counts as one page toward your limit.

Starter500 pages/month

Pro2,000 pages/month

Business6,000 pages/month

If you exceed your limit, the API will return a 429 status. If a PDF has more pages than your remaining quota, only the allowed pages will be processed and the partial flag will be set.

// DATA COLUMNS

Each transaction row contains these fields (in both xlsx and csv):

Column	Type	Description
date	string	Transaction date (YYYY-MM-DD)
description	string	Transaction description / memo
amount	number	Positive = credit, negative = debit
balance	number?	Running balance after transaction (may be empty)
reference	string?	Bank reference or transaction ID
counterparty	string?	Name of the other party
