Bank rules in the API
Please allow me to list, get, post, and delete bank rules in the API. We manage several Organizations and we're copying around these rules by hand right now. It's annoying, expensive, and prone to mistakes. I'd LOVE to just write a script to do it.

We are in 2025 and we still dont have Bank rules on API. I have more than 750 rules that could be changed automatically if it was possible using API but I need to manage it manually.

Yes, having 100s of bank rules, and not being able to programmatically control them is really hard. I saw a comment by Xero admin that Xero was working on Bank Rules in the API back in 2016 - is this still valid?

Same here... very surprised that bank rules are still not available via API

This would allow us to bulk provision rules for all our Xero Clients (~1K) through proprietary software without the use of RPA or other manual efforts. Would greatly impact our firm's operations.

This idea coupled with "automatic bank rules" and possibly, "one-time bank rules", could add the equivalent of the frequently requested item:
