Showing historical transactions

All activity that occurs in an Account—whether deposits, withdrawals, trades, corporate actions, or others—are journaled via Transaction objects. These can be listed for any date range to show the historical activity in an Account.

For example, a purchase of an equity would result in the following Transaction:

{
      "orderId": "IC.4c108af2-3c65-4215-84f6-b9b338528096",
      "orderNo": "ICPB023294",
      "symbol": "AAPL",
      "cumQty": 1,
      "orderStatus": "2",
      "orderType": "1",
      "orderQty": 1,
      "limitPrice": 0,
      "stopPrice": 0,
      "executedPrice": 122.47,
      "side": "B",
      "createdWhen": "2021-03-22T15:23:21.100Z",
      "updatedWhen": "2021-03-22T15:23:21.102Z",
      "updatedReason": "market_order-buy-filled",
      "commission": 0,
      "commissionDesc": "Standard Commission",
      "isoTimeRestingOrderExpires": "2021-03-22T20:00:00.000Z",
      "executedWhen": "2021-03-22T15:23:21.102Z",
      "realizedPL": null,
      "orderCashAmt": 0
}

View the List Transactions by Account API to learn more about each field returned.

Generally, each Transaction manipulates cash, a single asset position, or both. Some actions, which result in multiple positions being adjusted, can result in multiple Transactions being created. You can see examples of these in Creating an order and in the API Reference for Corporate action Events.

List of Transaction types

Each Transaction has a finTranTypeID which informs the overall type of journal that took place.
