Update the amount, description, and tags of an existing MoneyTransfer record. The update is performed atomically: all Tag records currently linked to the transfer are deleted first, and then a fresh set of Tag records is created from the tags array you supply. This means every edit is a full replacement of the tag list — partial updates are not supported.
This endpoint does not carry a @login_required decorator in index.py. No session cookie is required by the current server implementation. This is a known security gap — any HTTP client that can reach the server can edit any transfer by ID.

​
Endpoint

POST /edit_money

​
Authentication

Not enforced. The @login_required decorator is absent from this route in index.py. No session cookie is required by the current implementation.

​
Request Body

Send a JSON object with the following fields.
​
id
integer
required
The unique ID of the MoneyTransfer to update.
​
amount
float
required
The new transfer amount. Negative values represent expenses; positive values represent income.
​
description
string
required
The new description for the transfer (max 200 characters).
​
tags
array
required
The complete replacement list of tag name strings. All existing tags for this transfer are removed and this array is used to recreate them from scratch. Pass [] to remove all tags without adding new ones.
Passing an empty tags array ([]) permanently removes all category associations from the transfer. There is no partial-update or append mode — the array you send becomes the transfer’s entire tag set.

​
Response

​
message
string
"MoneyTransfer edited successfully" on success.
​
error
string
An error message string. Present on 404 ("MoneyTransfer not found") or 500 (database exception message).
