I now have an YNAB account and found that is has a well-documented API. Not only that, I was able to link it successfully to my two banks and access my checking, savings, and credit card transactions! It might be possible to use the API to periodically download bank and credit card transactions into YNAB's standard JSON format, then convert that into the OFX format, and then upload the OFX into GnuCash. I'm proceeding on the project with the hope of success. If anyone is interested in following it, the Raku (formerly Perl 6, see https://raku.org) module skeleton is on my Github repo now at https://github.com/tbrowder/API-YNAB.git. (Note I may soon change the title to something like YNAB2OFX or YNAB-OFX--suggestions are very welcome.) The downside, assuming I have success, is that YNAB has a subscription fee of about $15 per month plus tax (cancel any time) or $100 plus tax a year, sums well worth it if I can get a periodic good OFX-to-GnuCash import.
