[GNC] GnuCash Tools>Online Banking Setup NOT working for me

[Gyle McCollam]

Shiv,
I also should have mentioned that I stopped using Aqbanking because too many of my financial institutions won't work with it.  I have found that going to the financial institutions' websites, which I do on a regular basis anyway, and downloading the transactions in the desired format and then importing into Gnu Cash works just as well with the added benefit of not having passwords stored in yet another piece of software.  For security reasons, I like having my passwords stored in Bitwarden only, my password manager.


Thank You,

Gyle McCollam

Hello,

Please help.

I am using for the first time:
GnuCash Version: 4.12
Build ID: 4.12+(2022-09-24)

I select: Tools>Online Banking Setup> Start Online Banking Setup> Start
AQBanking Setup> OFX-DirectConnect backend>Run>Bank Name>Select a bank
(matching banks NOT shown when I type in Bank of America)

I am not able to setup  Bank of America Checking account for Actions>Online
Actions>Get Transactions despite hours of efforts. "Not Responding" shows
up whenever I make any selection from the top menu.

I followed this link:
https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Setting_up_OFXDirectConnect

Bank Name: Bank of America
FID: 5959
ORG: HAN
Server URL: https://eftx.bankofamerica.com/eftxweb/access.ofx

User Name: Shiv Jhawar
User ID: sjhawar7
