Configuration

Connection To Firefly III

The Required variables that should be defined in inventory:

To authenticate the Data Importer to Firefly III you require to use either:

Access Token

Firefly III Data Importer Access Token Settings
fireflyiii_importer_docker_envs_custom:
  - FIREFLY_III_ACCESS_TOKEN: ""  # (1)!
  1. Your access token from your instance of Firefly III | Options | Profile | OAuth | Personal Access Tokens | Create New Token.

Client ID

Firefly III Data Importer Client ID Settings
fireflyiii_importer_docker_envs_custom:
  - FIREFLY_III_CLIENT_ID: "1"  # (1)!
  1. Your client id from your instance of Firefly III | Options | Profile | OAuth | OAuth Clients | Create New Client.

    Note: Your require to leave Confidential unticked

Import data

For the following methods, your data need to be formatted in CSV.

Web import

You can refer to the following documentation to execute import from the server: web import

Server import

You can refer to the following documentation to execute import from the server: CLI import

Additional Settings

Note: For all available settings please refer to the Firefly III Data Importer example env

Email Notifications

To enable email notifications, set the following inventory entries to your desired values:

Firefly III Data Importer Email Settings
MAIL_MAILER: "log"  # (1)!
MAIL_HOST: "localhost"  # (2)!
MAIL_PORT: "25"  # (3)!
MAIL_FROM: "fireflyiii@domain.com"  # (4)!
MAIL_USERNAME: ""  # (5)!
MAIL_PASSWORD: ""  # (6)!
MAIN_ENCRYPTION: ""  # (7)!
  1. The MAIL_MAILER-setting indicates the system that is used for mailing. Firefly III supports the following mail systems: smtp, sendmail, mailgun, mandrill, sparkpost and log. Here is an explanation about each MAIL_MAILER option
  2. Replace localhost with your email host. IE: smtp-relay.gmail.com
  3. Replace 25 with your email port. IE: 587
  4. The email address you want to send to. Replace "" with the email address you want to send to
  5. Replace "" with your email username if necessary.
  6. Replace "" with your email password if necessary.
  7. Use SSL or TLS for communication with the SMTP server. Can be true or 'false.

Deployment

Role Defaults

Use the Inventory to customize variables. (1)

  1. Example override

    fireflyiii_importer_name: "custom_value"
    

    Avoid overriding variables ending in _default

    When overriding variables that end in _default (like fireflyiii_importer_docker_envs_default), you replace the entire default configuration. Future updates that add new default values will not be applied to your setup, potentially breaking functionality.

    Instead, use the corresponding _custom variable (like fireflyiii_importer_docker_envs_custom) to add your changes. Custom values are merged with defaults, ensuring you receive updates.
