OBReadTransaction2

GET /accounts/{AccountId}/transactions

The API endpoint allows a Third Party to retrieve the transactions for a specific AccountId (which is retrieved in the call to GET /accounts).

  • The Third Party must have an access token issued by the API Provider using an authorization flow (either redirect flow or decoupled flow). 

GET /transactions

The API endpoint allows a Third Party to retrieve the transactions in bulk, if an API Provider has implemented the bulk retrieval endpoint.

  • The Third Party must have an access token issued by the API Provider using an authorization flow (either redirect flow or decoupled flow). 

  • This will retrieve the transactions for all accounts linked to the account-access-consent.

Data Model

The OBReadTransaction2 object will be used for the call to:

  • GET /accounts/{AccountId}/transactions

  • GET /transactions

Notes

  • The use of the term "Transaction" has been made consistently in the Transaction endpoint payload (instead of "Entry" which is the ISO20022 element name)

  • A DateTime element has been used instead of a complex choice element of Date and DateTime. Where time elements do not exist in API Provider systems - the time portion of the DateTime element will be defaulted to 00:00:00+00:00

  • The BookingDateTime has been set to mandatory - as all API Providers must provide this field for pagination and filtering. The BookingDateTime is the date the transaction is booked (or posted) and becomes immutable - which is not necessarily the date the transaction took place.

  • Either the BankTransactionCode (which is the ISO transaction code list), or ProprietaryBankTransactionCode, or both may be populated. While the expectation is that at least one of BankTransactionCode or ProprietaryBankTransactionCode are populated - we have decided not to enforce this behaviour in the payload structure - as this would require nesting elements, and introducing complex choice elements.

  • The BankTransactionCode (ISO) code-list is documented on the ISO20022 website: https://www.iso20022.org/external_code_list.page; and External Code Sets spreadsheet.

    • The ISO 20022 BankTransactionCode Code and SubCode are specified as a 4 letter codes. However - the principle we have applied for the code lists is to have longer more descriptive codes.

    • The BankTransactionCode Code and SubCode will be populated with the long form description of the ISO 20022 code, with delimiters removed. E.g., the Family Code "CNTR" has a description of "Counter Transactions" which is populated as "CounterTransactions"

  • API Providers must have the ability to provide transactions through APIs for a period that at least equals the period provided through their online channels.

Filtering

Limited support for filtering is provided on the transactions resource.

fromBookingDateTime

0..1

Specifies start date and time for filtering of the Transaction records on the Transaction/BookingDateTime field

ISODateTime

toBookingDateTime

0..1

Specifies end date and time for filtering of the Transaction records on the Transaction/BookingDateTime field.

ISODateTime

The API Provider must treat the following as valid input:

  • Non-working days (e.g. a Sunday or a Public holiday) or any other days on which no transactions are recorded

  • Dates that fall outside the range for which transaction information is provided through APIs

  • Dates that fall outside the range for which a consent authorisation is available

  • Timezone may be included in the filter request - but must be ignored by the API Provider

In the above situations, the API Provider must return data for the remaining valid period specified by the filter.

Filtering Examples

// All transactions from 1st Jan, 2015 GET /transactions?fromBookingDateTime=2015-01-01T00:00:00 // All transactions in 2016 GET /transactions?fromBookingDateTime=2016-01-01T00:00:00&toBookingDateTime=2016-12-31T23:59:59 // All transactions in a specific account up to 31-Mar-2017 GET /accounts/1/transactions?toBookingDateTime=2017-03-31T23:59:59

Permission Codes

The resource response differs depending on the permissions (ReadTransactionsBasic and ReadTransactionsDetail) used to access the resource. In the event the resource is accessed with both ReadTransactionsBasic and ReadTransactionsDetail, the most detailed level (ReadTransactionsDetail) must be used.

  • These objects must not be returned without the ReadTransactionsDetail permission:

    • OBReadTransaction2/Data/Transaction/TransactionInformation

    • OBReadTransaction2/Data/Transaction/Balance

    • OBReadTransaction2/Data/Transaction/MerchantDetails

    • OBReadTransaction2/Data/Transaction/CreditorAccount

    • OBReadTransaction2/Data/Transaction/DebtorAccount

    • OBReadTransaction2/Data/Transaction/CreditorAgent

    • OBReadTransaction2/Data/Transaction/DebtorAgent

  • If the ReadTransactionsDetail is granted by the Customer:

    • OBReadTransaction2/Data/Transaction/TransactionInformation may be returned if applicable to the transaction and API Provider (0..1)

    • OBReadTransaction2/Data/Transaction/Balance may be returned if applicable to the transaction and API Provider (0..1)

    • OBReadTransaction2/Data/Transaction/MerchantDetails may be returned if applicable to the transaction and API Provider (0..1)

    • OBReadTransaction2/Data/Transaction/CreditorAccount may be returned if applicable to the transaction and API Provider (0..1)
