I belive Amex changed the download URL to https://online.americanexpress.com/myca … fxdownload
Wow, that worked, but I have to ask, how do you figure these things out? Is there something at the Amex site?
Call them
What URL are u using exactly? I tried the one suggested, but no luck... Please help!!
Thank you!
It works perfect. Apparently their server was down the first time a tried.
Thank you!
Thanks for this information! I haven't been getting transactions for a week and it really screwed up my budget!
I use this url https://online.americanexpress.com/myca … e=nl_ofxdo
What are the setOFXAppId,setOFXAppVersion,setBankId
Please help me as soon as possible
Thank you
Man they keep blocking my IP address for my budgeting application. Anyone else experience this issue?
inzolo: you need to provide a bit more information. What makes you think they are blocking the IP address, as opposed to failing for some other reason? I won't say they are not blocking, but it doesn't strike me as likely.
Getting a “403 forbidden” error on an app I wrote that’s been working for years with no changes.
I'm also getting a 403: Forbidden error when using ofxclient.
Did some investigation and found that adding the header "Accept: */*" made the error go away.
It broke, I had it working again for a while, now I'm getting "Error: HTTP/1.1 503 Service Unavailable"
I wonder if they have blocked my IP. I've tried other IPs though and get the same result.
I'm getting the same issue. 403 Forbidden with 'Accept': 'application/ofx' and 503 with 'Accept': '*/*'
Last time it worked for me was around 8:45 am (Pacific) on 5/12.
It seems like this is an intermittent issue
Update: Started randomly working a few hours later while using application/ofx header. Seems like this is just a common AMEX server issue.
I'm also getting 403 Forbidden. Looks like it hasn't been working for me since 5/24. This is what I get from
ofxclient -v
when I try to add an account:
DEBUG:root:---- response ----
DEBUG:root:{'fp': None, 'status': 403, 'will_close': True, 'chunk_left': 'UNKNOWN', 'length': 0, 'strict': 0, 'reason': 'Forbidden', 'version': 11, 'debuglevel': 0, 'msg': <httplib.HTTPMessage instance at 0x10b7303f8>, 'chunked': 0, '_method': u'POST'}
<snip>
DEBUG:root:
authentication failed: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'find'
Request info:
DEBUG:root:---- request headers ----
DEBUG:root:Content-Type: application/ofx
DEBUG:root:Host: online.americanexpress.com
DEBUG:root:Content-Length: 390
DEBUG:root:Connection: Keep-Alive
DEBUG:root:Accept: */*, application/x-ofx
DEBUG:root:User-Agent: httpclient
I was able to get this working again by changing the Accept headers to
text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8
as suggested here.
I got things working again last week by updating headers as suggested above. This week it is broken again. Getting error code 2003. Weird error message though. The error message is "Login Successful". Anyone else having a similar issue?
I'm getting the same error 2003 in the last week.
I found the reason - AMEX changed OFX account numbers, it is now 'somesymbols|last5digits' format. Re-retrieve the list of accounts.
