See also Tutorials: Initiate your first payment.
Authorization
Each Open Banking API must contain an authorization header in the following format to make a call: Bearer <yourAccessToken>.
Before you start, ensure that you've got an access token with the correct scope using the /token endpoint.
You need to get the authorization code first and exchange it for an access token.
Never share your access_token with anyone, as it can be used to access the banking data that you have access to and initiate transactions.
For more information, see Tutorial: Get account and transaction information and Tutorial: Initiate your first payment as examples.
