This is the central location for all API standardization recommendations developed under the patronage of the Common API initiative of Swiss Fintech Innovations (SFTI). In addition to the API spec, each repository also contains a wiki with further information (business requirements, use cases, etc.).
Basic information valid for all APIs is located in a dedicated Github wiki.
More documentation underlying these APIs may be found on the Confluence space of the Common API Initiative. Please note that our goal is to consolidate all our work results on GitHub, so the Confluence content will decrease to zero over time.
Currently, we are covering the following business areas.
- XS2A/Payments (repo ca-payment)
- Mortgage (repo ca-mortgage)
- Wealth (repo ca-wealth)
- Card (repo ca-card)
- Pension (repo ca-pension)
- API Security and Consent Management (repo ca-security)
Note: SFTI's standardization recommendations for APIs can be implemented individually at each interested FI. At least for some APIs, the leading implementation is currently realized in coordination with the Open Banking platform bLink of SIX. In the repos of the affected APIs, this is explicitly stated.
To understand how SFTI and its Common API working group is embedded in the Swiss Financial center, please consult the following illustration:
