--- title: "Preview Chart Transaction Merge" method: GET path: "/coa/api/transaction/merge" tags: ["Core Accounting"] --- # Preview Chart Transaction Merge `GET /coa/api/transaction/merge` Preview the result of merging two chart transactions. This endpoint shows what the merged journal entry will look like, allowing you to verify the merge before committing. The preview includes the journal that will be retained and the transactions that will remain after the merge. **Parameters:** - `transaction_ids` (query, required): Comma-separated list of exactly two transaction IDs **Returns:** A journal entry object containing the merged result with all remaining transactions. **Requirements:** - Must provide exactly two transaction IDs - Transactions must be from different journals - Transactions must have matching amounts - Transactions must belong to the same entity ## Response `200` - JournalEntry - `id` integer, required - `is_deleted` boolean, required - `deleted_at` string, date-time, nullable, required - `transactions` ChartTransaction[], required - `id` integer, required - `is_deleted` boolean, required - `deleted_at` string, date-time, nullable, required - `entity_name` string, required - `entity_currency` string, required - `account_name` string, nullable, required — Combines account number and name in the format "number - name" - `account_number` string, required - `vendor_name` string, required — Name of the linked Campfire Vendor object.

Mirrors ``ramp_use_sandbox``: the frontend builds the "Open in Navan" deep link from ``source_id`` and uses this to pick the web-app host (US -> app.navan.com, EU -> app-fra.navan.com). Navan records carry no FK to their connection, so the region is resolved per customer and memoized to avoid an N+1 lookup across a transaction list. - `float_bill_id` string, nullable, required — Float id of the bill paid by a Float bill-payment journal entry, else ``None``. Payment journal entries store the Float payment id as ``source_id``, which has no page of its own in Float's web app — the frontend deep-links "View on Float" to the paid bill instead. - `search_vector` string, nullable, required - `search_text` string, nullable, required - `type` 'bill' | 'bill_payment' | 'bill_prepayment' | 'check' | 'credit_card' | 'credit_memo' | 'credit_memo_payment' | 'debit_memo' | 'debit_memo_payment' | 'deposit' | 'expense' | 'invoice' | 'intercompany_journal' | 'invoice_payment' | 'journal_entry' | 'lease' | 'payment' | 'receive_payment' | 'refund' | 'revenue_recognition' | 'sales_receipt' | 'transfer' | 'vendor_credit' | 'void_bill' | 'void_bill_payment' | 'void_invoice_payment' | 'void_credit_memo' | 'void_credit_memo_payment' | 'void_debit_memo_payment' | 'void_invoice' | 'elimination' | 'revaluation' | 'asset_reclassification' — * `bill` - Bill * `bill_payment` - Bill Payment * `bill_prepayment` - Bill Prepayment * `check` - Check * `credit_card` - Credit Card * `credit_memo` - Credit Memo * `credit_memo_payment` - Credit Memo Payment * `debit_memo` - Debit Memo * `debit_memo_payment` - Debit Memo Payment * `deposit` - Deposit * `expense` - Expense * `invoice` - Invoice * `intercompany_journal` - Intercompany Journal * `invoice_payment` - Invoice Payment * `journal_entry` - Journal Entry * `lease` - Lease * `payment` - Payment * `receive_payment` - Receive Payment * `refund` - Refund * `revenue_recognition` - Revenue Recognition * `sales_receipt` - Sales Receipt * `transfer` - Transfer * `vendor_credit` - Vendor Credit * `void_bill` - Void Bill * `void_bill_payment` - Void Bill Payment * `void_invoice_payment` - Void Invoice Payment * `void_credit_memo` - Void Credit Memo * `void_credit_memo_payment` - Void Credit Memo Payment * `void_debit_memo_payment` - Void Debit Memo Payment * `void_invoice` - Void Invoice * `elimination` - Elimination * `revaluation` - Revaluation * `asset_reclassification` - Asset Reclassification - `journal_id` string, uuid - `memo` string, nullable - `currency` string - `exchange_rate` number, double, nullable - `exchange_rate_book` number, double, nullable - `use_average_rate` boolean, nullable - `created_automatically` boolean - `date` string, date - `ref_number` string, nullable - `created_at` string, date-time, required - `source` string, nullable - `source_id` string, nullable - `last_modified_at` string, date-time, required - `customer` integer, required - `recurrent_journal_entry` integer, nullable - `entity` integer, nullable - `reversal_of` integer, nullable - `intercompany_journal` integer, nullable - `source_file` integer, nullable - `chat` integer, nullable - `last_draft` integer, nullable, required ## Other responses - `400` --- [API](https://skmtc.net/campfire/apis/campfire-developer-apis.md) · [All operations](https://skmtc.net/campfire/apis/campfire-developer-apis/llms.txt) · [OpenAPI document](https://skmtc-service-staging.skmtc.workers.dev/v1/apis/campfire/campfire-developer-apis/revisions/6945ebc3180e/schema)
