Flinks Connect API

info:
  title: Flinks Authorize Connect API
  description: Representative specification of the Flinks financial data API. Businesses connect to consumer and business bank accounts to aggregate account, transaction, and statement data, verify identity, and derive income, credit-risk, and fraud analytics. A session is opened with the multi-step /Authorize (MFA) endpoint using a LoginId returned by Flinks Connect; the resulting RequestId is passed to subsequent data, enrichment, and analytics endpoints. All calls are authenticated with a short-lived authorize token supplied in the flinks-auth-key header.
