How to Refresh Plaid Products on an Adhoc Basis


This document explains the process of manually refreshing Plaid Products on a Bank Verification Record within Salesforce. This feature allows users to trigger a refresh for selected Plaid Products (e.g., Auth, Balance, Transactions, Assets) when data needs to be re-synced with the Plaid platform on an adhoc basis.

This is typically used when:

  • The user needs the latest Plaid data immediately for verification or review.

  • There is a suspected mismatch or stale data between Salesforce and Plaid.


🪜 Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Navigate to the Bank Verification Record

  • Log in to Salesforce.

  • From the App Launcher, search and open Bank Verifications or you can navigate to the Bank Verification Related List on Source Object.

  • Locate the record you wish to refresh.

  • Open the Bank Verification Record detail page.

Step 5: Monitor Refresh Status

  1. Once submitted, the system creates a background job that performs the data fetch.

  2. You can monitor the refresh progress through the Status Description field associated with each selected Plaid product (e.g., In Progress, Completed, Failed).

  3. Once complete, the Last Modified by field on Bank Verification Record will update accordingly.
