Report whether you initiated an ACH transaction

POST /processor/signal/decision/report

After calling /processor/signal/evaluate, call /processor/signal/decision/report to report whether the transaction was initiated.

If you are using the Plaid Transfer product to create transfers, it is not necessary to use this endpoint, as Plaid already knows whether the transfer was initiated.
