(Deprecated) Migrate account into Bank Transfers

As an alternative to adding Items via Link, you can also use the /bank_transfer/migrate_account endpoint to migrate known account and routing numbers to Plaid Items. Note that Items created in this way are not compatible with endpoints for other products, such as /accounts/balance/get, and can only be used with Bank Transfer endpoints. If you require access to other endpoints, create the Item through Link instead. Access to /bank_transfer/migrate_account is not enabled by default; to obtain access, contact your Plaid account manager.
