Check out Tiller! https://www.tillerhq.com/

I tried going down the route of dealing with OFX in GNUCash, and it's just a huge never-ending hassle. Tiller dumps the raw data from Yodlee (the backend that does the gnarly interfacing and cleaning for most PFM sites, besides Mint) into Google Sheets. From there you can use Apps Script or the Sheets API to push the data wherever you want. Sure, it's $5/mo, but well worth it for not ever dealing with bank websites or APIs or OFX formats again.

Looks cool, but wow, you're really handing all your banking data to Google? Does Tiller support raw CSV downloads?

I'm using Plaid's API with a read-only user on my bank account to download the data locally and enter it into SQLite. Then when I want to run reporting on it, I generate a Ledger file. Having it in SQLite lets me run a web interface over it and change the category for each item (Amazon purchases, for instance, which are seemingly impossible to categorize automatically).
