Items are borrowed from the Plaid terminology. Per their documentation:

"An item represents a login at a financial institution. A single end-user of your application might have accounts at different financial institutions, which means they would have multiple different Items."

While the LinkMoney API does not use the item system in its underlying data scheme, it still leverages the term in Plaid endpoints to help with transition from the Plaid platform.

Developers can use the Plaid Item endpoints to retrieve items from the LinkMoney API. As with Plaid, these Items will include only data associated with a login from a single institution.
