Create New Connections

AnchorOverview

In general, the connection process with Quiltt for Plaid follows these steps:

Call the connector[IntegrationName]Initialize mutation to initialize a connection widget for the integration (arguments for this mutation determine the configuration and mode for Link).
Open the connection with the data provided by the connector[IntegrationName]Initialize mutation.
After the user successfully completes the connection flow, call the connector[IntegrationName]Close mutation to close create and sync the connection.

Each integration typically requires a specific set of fields to create a connection. See the sections for corresponding integration’s documentation:

Note: More connection integrations will become available in the future. If you are interested in integration that’s not generally available, please contact us here.

AnchorPlaid

Plaid is a leading financial data company that helps companies securely access customer-provisioned financial data.

Quiltt’s plug-and-play Plaid integration makes ingesting, enriching and using Plaid data easier and more accessible.

AnchorInitialize Plaid Link

The connectorPlaidInitialize mutation is used to create a Link Token to configure an instance of Link. The linkToken generated by this mutation will be used for Plaid Link initialization. Check out our guides on configuring Plaid Link with React or see Plaid’s Docs for more information.

mutation ConnectorPlaidInitialize($input: ConnectorPlaidInitializeInput) {
  connectorPlaidInitialize(input: $input) {
    success
    record {
      connectorStatus
      connectorToken
      expiration
      linkToken
      requestId
    }
    errors {
      code
      message
    }
  }
}

AnchorConnectorPlaidInitializeInput

Autogenerated input type of ConnectorPlaidInitialize

Field	Type	Description
accountFilters	`PlaidLinkTokenAccountFilters`	By default, Link will provide limited account filtering: it will only display Institutions that are compatible with all products supplied in the products parameter of /link/token/create, and, if auth is specified in the products array, will also filter out accounts other than checking and savings accounts on the Account Select pane. You can further limit the accounts shown in Link by using account_filters to specify the account subtypes to be shown in Link. Only the specified subtypes will be shown. This filtering applies to both the Account Select view (if enabled) and the Institution Select view. Institutions that do not support the selected subtypes will be omitted from Link. To indicate that all subtypes should be shown, use the value “all”. If the account_filters filter is used, any account type for which a filter is not specified will be entirely omitted from Link. For a full list of valid types and subtypes, see the Account schema.
androidPackageName	`String`	The name of your app’s Android package. Required if using the link_token to initialize Link on Android. When creating a link_token for initializing Link on other platforms, this field must be left blank. Any package name specified here must also be added to the Allowed Android package names setting on the developer dashboard.
auth	`PlaidLinkTokenCreateRequestAuth`	Specifies options for initializing Link for use with the Auth product. This field is currently only required if using the Flexible Auth product (currently in closed beta).
clientMutationId	`String`	A unique identifier for the client performing the mutation.
clientName	`String`	The name of your application, as it should be displayed in Link. Maximum length of 30 characters. If a value longer than 30 characters is provided, Link will display “This Application” instead. *Defaults to your Quiltt deployment’s branding.*
connectionId	`ID`	Used when launching Link in update mode, when completing the Same-day (manual) Micro-deposit flow, or (optionally) when initializing Link as part of the Payment Initiation (UK and Europe) flow.
countryCodes	`[String!]`	An array of Plaid-supported country codes using ISO-3166-1 alpha-2 country code standard
euConfig	`PlaidLinkTokenEUConfig`	Configuration parameters for EU flows
features	`ConnectionFeature!`
language	`String`	The language that Link should be displayed in. Supported languages are: English (“en”) French (“fr”) Spanish (“es”) Dutch (“nl”) German(“de”). When using a Link customization, the language configured here must match the setting in the customization, or the customization will not be applied.
linkCustomizationName	`String`	The name of the Link customization from the Plaid Dashboard to be applied to Link
products	`[String!]`	List of products to use with Link
update	`PlaidLinkTokenCreateRequestUpdate`	Specifies options for initializing Link for update mode.

AnchorCreate a Connection

After your user successfully completes the Plaid Link session, call the connectorPlaidClose mutation from Plaid Link’s onSuccess callback, passing in the Quiltt connectorToken, along with Plaid Link’s metadata and publicToken.

mutation ConnectorPlaidClose($input: ConnectorPlaidCloseInput) {
  connectorPlaidClose(input: $input) {
    success
    record {
      id
      accounts {
        id
        name
      }
      institution {
        name
        logo
      }
    }
    errors {
      code
      message
    }
  }
}

AnchorConnectorPlaidCloseInput

Autogenerated input type of connectorPlaidClose

Field	Type	Description
clientMutationId	`String`	A unique identifier for the client performing the mutation.
connectorToken	`String!`	The `connector_token` string from Connector Initialization
metadata	`JSON!`	The `metadata` object from Plaid Link’s `onSuccess` callback
publicToken	`String!`	The `public_token` string from Plaid Link’s `onSuccess` callback
