Development Environment

Authentication

Our APIs use several types of authentication methods. These methods include the following:

  • OAuth
  • (List additional methods here)

These methods will be listed in each guide and in the API Reference section.

API Access Control

API Access is granted on multiple levels:

  • By Credit Union: Each Credit Union will have a Vendor list. We have the ability to turn off an entire Credit Union from API access at any time. This would remove access to all Vendors and all Applications for the Credit Union.
  • By Vendor: We have the ability to turn on/off a Vendor at any time. This would remove access to each application the vendor has associated with it but leave the other Vendors for the CU as is.
  • By Application: Each vendor will have any applications it publishes assigned an access key to our API's. Turning off an Application would remove access to all API's enabled for the Application.
  • By API: Each Application will have API's enabled or disabled based on assignment from CU*A. Access to each of these APIs on the Application level can be turned on and off at any time.
