Scopes

In order to have access to account information, you must provide one or more scopes. Various scopes allow access to different account information:

ACCOUNTS_BASIC - required to get basic account information such as name, iban and currency.

ACCOUNTS_DETAILS - required to get the full account information as account id, name, type, iban and currency.

ACCOUNTS_BALANCES - required to get account balance. Take a note that it cannot be used without the ACCOUNTS_DETAILS scope since an account id is required. Therefore, the ACCOUNTS_DETAILS scope will be inserted by default if not provided.

ACCOUNTS_TRANSACTIONS - required to get account transactions. Take a note that it cannot be used without the ACCOUNTS_DETAILS scope since an account id is required. Therefore, the ACCOUNTS_DETAILS scope will be inserted by default if not provided.

Account information scopes are not enabled by default. To check if you have the access, you can look at your project settings.

How to use the account information API?

   • Initiate user authentication by calling the /auth endpoint with the Request-Id, Redirect-URL and corresponding scope. The service will return an authorizationLink.
