Create a customer

Most data is grouped by customer, which is Walker Street Data's term for an Australian business entity. To create a customer you will need to submit the customer's 11-digit Australian Business Number (ABN).

If this customer is already known to Walker Street Data, their existing customerId will be returned - creating a customer is idempotent, so it's safe to call again with the same ABN.

Once you have the customerId, you can:

• Submit transactions for enrichment
• Upload PDF bank statements
• Retrieve enriched transaction data
• Retrieve reports on the customer's financial health

Endpoint: POST https://api.walkerstdata.com.au/v1/customer - see the full request and response schema in the API reference.
