create_transactions
Create transactions on an account, e.g. ones the bank import missed, after the user confirms.
Each transaction: date (YYYY-MM-DD, not in the future), amount in currency units (negative for spending), payee_name, and optionally memo and category_id. They are created cleared and, unless approved is true, left for the user to approve in YNAB. undo_operation deletes them. Confirmation works as for apply_categories.
