    The status of the transfer.
    pending: A new transfer was created; it is in the pending state. posted: The transfer has been successfully submitted to the payment network. settled: The transfer was successfully completed by the payment network. Note that funds from received debits are not available to be moved out of the Ledger until the transfer reaches funds_available status. For credit transactions, settled means the funds have been delivered to the receiving bank account. This is the terminal state of a successful credit transfer. funds_available: Funds from the transfer have been released from hold and applied to the ledger's available balance. (Only applicable to ACH debits.) This is the terminal state of a successful debit transfer. cancelled: The transfer was cancelled by the client. This is the terminal state of a cancelled transfer. failed: The transfer failed, no funds were moved. This is the terminal state of a failed transfer. returned: A posted transfer was returned.

    network
    stringstring
    The network or rails used for the transfer.
    For transfers submitted as ach or same-day-ach, the Standard ACH cutoff is 8:30 PM Eastern Time.
    For transfers submitted as same-day-ach, the Same Day ACH cutoff is 3:30 PM Eastern Time. It is recommended to send the request 15 minutes prior to the cutoff to ensure that it will be processed in time for submission before the cutoff. If the transfer is processed after this cutoff but before the Standard ACH cutoff, it will be sent over Standard ACH rails and will not incur same-day charges; this will apply to both legs of the transfer if applicable. The transaction limit for a Same Day ACH transfer is $1,000,000. Authorization requests sent with an amount greater than $1,000,000 will fail.
    For transfers submitted as rtp, Plaid will automatically route between Real Time Payment rail by TCH or FedNow rails as necessary. If a transfer is submitted as rtp and the counterparty account is not eligible for RTP, the /transfer/authorization/create request will fail with an INVALID_FIELD error code. To pre-check to determine whether a counterparty account can support RTP, call /transfer/capabilities/get before calling /transfer/authorization/create.
    Wire transfers are currently in early availability. To request access to wire as a payment network, contact your Account Manager. For transfers submitted as wire, the type must be credit; wire debits are not supported. The cutoff to submit a wire payment is 4:30 PM Eastern Time on a business day; wires submitted after that time will be processed on the next business day. The transaction limit for a wire is $999,999.99. Authorization requests sent with an amount greater than $999,999.99 will fail.

    network
    stringstring
    The network or rails used for the transfer.
    For transfers submitted as ach or same-day-ach, the Standard ACH cutoff is 8:30 PM Eastern Time.
    For transfers submitted as same-day-ach, the Same Day ACH cutoff is 3:30 PM Eastern Time. It is recommended to send the request 15 minutes prior to the cutoff to ensure that it will be processed in time for submission before the cutoff. If the transfer is processed after this cutoff but before the Standard ACH cutoff, it will be sent over Standard ACH rails and will not incur same-day charges; this will apply to both legs of the transfer if applicable. The transaction limit for a Same Day ACH transfer is $1,000,000. Authorization requests sent with an amount greater than $1,000,000 will fail.
    For transfers submitted as rtp, Plaid will automatically route between Real Time Payment rail by TCH or FedNow rails as necessary. If a transfer is submitted as rtp and the counterparty account is not eligible for RTP, the /transfer/authorization/create request will fail with an INVALID_FIELD error code. To pre-check to determine whether a counterparty account can support RTP, call /transfer/capabilities/get before calling /transfer/authorization/create.
    Wire transfers are currently in early availability. To request access to wire as a payment network, contact your Account Manager. For transfers submitted as wire, the type must be credit; wire debits are not supported. The cutoff to submit a wire payment is 4:30 PM Eastern Time on a business day; wires submitted after that time will be processed on the next business day. The transaction limit for a wire is $999,999.99. Authorization requests sent with an amount greater than $999,999.99 will fail.

    transfer/sweep/get

    Response fields and example

    sweep
    objectobject
    Describes a sweep of funds to / from the sweep account.
    A sweep is associated with many sweep events (events of type swept or return_swept) which can be retrieved by invoking the /transfer/event/list endpoint with the corresponding sweep_id.
    swept events occur when the transfer amount is credited or debited from your sweep account, depending on the type of the transfer. return_swept events occur when a transfer is returned and Plaid undoes the credit or debit.
    The total sum of the swept and return_swept events is equal to the amount of the sweep Plaid creates and matches the amount of the entry on your sweep account ledger.
