description: Authentication for Open Payments API
schemes:
- type: oauth2
  name: OAuth2
  evidence: We use OAuth2 with client credentials for authentication which is a well-known standard.
  flows:
  - client_credentials
  token_url: https://auth.openbankingplatform.com/connect/token
  scopes:
  - aspspinformation
  - accountinformation
  - paymentinitiation
  - bankgiroinformation
  - private
  - corporate
  how_to_obtain: Obtain `client_id` and `client_secret` by creating an application in the Developer Portal (sandbox or production). Use them in
    a POST request to the token endpoint with `grant_type=client_credentials` and the desired `scope`.
note: All API requests must include the access token in the `Authorization` header as `Bearer <ACCESS_TOKEN>`.
