When to use

After bulk-importing expenses (OCR, supplier sync, e-Factura SPV) the category_id is often null. This endpoint sweeps every such row and assigns a category from the firm’s existing list — system defaults plus custom categories, merged. Existing categorizations are never overwritten. Call repeatedly until remaining = 0. Each call processes up to cap expenses (a server-side constant returned in the response), so a large backlog can be drained in controlled passes rather than a single long-running request.

​
Permissions

Requires write permission on expenses.

​
Request

​
max
integer
Optional cap on the number of expenses to process this call. The server enforces its own ceiling (BATCH_MAX_PER_CALL), so very large values are clamped silently. Omit for “process up to the server cap.”

FieldMeaning
processedExpenses inspected this call.
categorizedExpenses that received a category_id.
skippedClassifier declined to assign a category (low confidence or no obvious match in the firm’s list).
errorsPer-row failures — logged server-side, retryable on next call.
remainingUncategorized expenses still queued. Stop when this hits 0.
batch_sizeExpenses per classifier call (informational).
capHard ceiling per invocation (informational).

​
Driver pattern

async function categorizeAll(client) {
  while (true) {
    const { data } = await client.post('/expenses/ai-categorize-batch');
    if (data.remaining === 0) return;
    // Optional: brief pause between passes.
    await new Promise(r => setTimeout(r, 500));
  }
}

​
Errors

  • 401 — missing / invalid bearer token
  • 403 — API key lacks write permission on expenses
  • 502 ai_unavailable — classifier call failed; safe to retry
  • 503 ai_not_configured — AI categorization is not enabled on this deployment

Body

application/json
​
max
integer

Optional override for the per-call cap. The server still enforces its own BATCH_MAX_PER_CALL ceiling, so very large values are silently clamped.
