# Retrieve information from the bank accounts used for income verification in PDF format

`POST /credit/bank_income/pdf/get`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://production.plaid.com`
- URL: `https://production.plaid.com/credit/bank_income/pdf/get`
- Auth: API key in header `PLAID-CLIENT-ID` and API key in header `PLAID-SECRET` and API key in header `Plaid-Version`

`/credit/bank_income/pdf/get` returns the most recent bank income report for a specified user in PDF format.  A single report corresponds to all institutions linked in a single Link session. To include multiple institutions in a single report, use [Multi-Item Link](https://plaid.com/docs/link/multi-item-link).

## Request body

- CreditBankIncomePDFGetRequest: CreditBankIncomePDFGetRequest defines the request schema for `/credit/bank_income/pdf/get`
  - `client_id` string: Your Plaid API `client_id`. The `client_id` is required and may be provided either in the `PLAID-CLIENT-ID` header or as part of a request body.
  - `secret` string: Your Plaid API `secret`. The `secret` is required and may be provided either in the `PLAID-SECRET` header or as part of a request body.
  - `user_token` string: The user token associated with the user for which data is being requested. This field is used only by customers with pre-existing integrations that already use the `user_token` field. All other customers should use the `user_id` instead. For more details, see [New User APIs](https://plaid.com/docs/api/users/user-apis).
  - `user_id` string: A unique user identifier, created by `/user/create`. Integrations that began using `/user/create` after December 10, 2025 use this field to identify a user instead of the `user_token`. For more details, see [New User APIs](https://plaid.com/docs/api/users/user-apis).
