How to Integrate Plaid SDK to React Native Using Expo Config Plugins

To start integrating Plaid we will need to run the app through expo-dev-client which we can achieve either by using expo run commands locally or using EAS build process. By building the dev client we will have a custom Expo Go which will add the Plaid library to its bundle, meaning you can use this client until you decide to add again something new that is not supported by it. For simplicity we will stay with the local run commands. Then we just need to follow the Plaid readme setup guide for both iOS and Android.

At this point, you just need to provide a correct link token in App.tsx. Normally you would get it from your backend, but for testing purposes we can actually use a very handy Postman collection provided by Plaid.

They offer a Postman collection so you could use Postman to quickly generate the client code you would need to call the API using iOS's URLSession (the the generated code does look a little ugly). The API docs include the endpoint responses. Using an app like CuteBaby, you can quickly create models.
