Blnk enables you to create and link multiple balances to a single identity within your Ledger. Any transaction record associated with a linked balance is also automatically mapped to the corresponding identity.

To create a balance connected to an identity, include the identity_id of the identity you want to associate with the balance in the request body of the create-balance endpoint as shown below:
