Plaid Profiles

Frequently, organizations will assign distinct login credentials for accessing the same financial institution. For instance, in a family office, both John and Judy may have individual accounts with American Express, each requiring their own unique login. It is important to note that Plaid's default setting only allows for one login per profile.

In order to address the scenario where multiple logins are required for the same institution, Gravity has incorporated Profiles into Plaid.

If Plaid is currently being utilized, Gravity will automatically generate the initial Plaid profile using the name of the first user who logs in. To establish additional profiles, please adhere to the instructions provided below.

Create a New Profile User

On the Plaid API screen select Create User in Plaid. We recommend using names that will identify the individual users for each profile.
