Connecting your Robinhood account to TRMNL takes just a few seconds and is done securely via our OAuth2 integration with Plaid, a leading financial institution connector.
Step 1 - Visit the Robinhood Plugin
Inside TRMNL, navigate to Plugins > Robinhood.
Step 2 - Connect Robinhood
Click to "Connect with Robinhood" on the right side of the screen, then click the Robinhood logo and follow the prompts to approve access to TRMNL.
You'll be asked to choose a particular account within Robinhood, for example your stock portfolio or Crypto portfolio.
After selecting an account (just 1 please), the Plaid modal will confirm the permissions TRMNL is requesting. They are the investments
and assets
products, which you can learn more about here and here.
Step 3 - Configure Plugin
After selecting the final "Allow" option in Step 2, you'll need to finish setting up your plugin inside TRMNL. Start by giving it a name and refresh rate.
Next, determine if you want to see a chart of your portfolio value over time, or simply a large number with your current portfolio value.
The "Portfolio Value" type is a number, and the "Value Chart" type is a line graph, similar to this example.
Step 4 - You're Done!
Based on your device's refresh settings, you'll begin seeing Google Calendar very soon.
Stay focused.
Troubleshooting
If you'd like to disconnect Robinhood from TRMNL, first delete the plugin via the top right trash can icon when viewing the plugin configuration.
Next, we suggest making a free Plaid.com account with your email or phone number. This will automatically look up and link all of your Plaid-driven financial connections, such as TRMNL.
Simply click the TRMNL connection from the list in your Plaid dashboard, then select that you want to stop sharing information and click Continue.
TRMNL will no longer have any access to your Robinhood account (via Plaid), but you can reconnect anytime by following Steps 1-2 above.
