# Overview

The File Payment resource is used by a PISP to initiate a File Payment.

# Endpoints

Resource HTTP Operation Endpoint Mandatory ? Scope Grant Type Message Signing Idempotency Key Request Object Response Object
file-payments POST POST /file-payments Conditional payments Authorization Code Signed Request Signed Response Yes OBWriteFile2 OBWriteFileResponse3

# POST /file-payments

Once the file-payment-consent has been authorised by the PSU, the PISP can proceed to submit the file-payment for processing:

  • This is done by making a POST request to the file-payments endpoint.

# GET /file-payments/{FilePaymentId}

A PISP can retrieve the file-payment to check its status.

# Status

The file-payments resource must have one of the following Status codes:

Status
InitiationPending
InitiationFailed
InitiationCompleted

# GET /file-payments/{FilePaymentId}/report-file

The API endpoint allows the PISP to download a payment report file from an ASPSP.

  • This endpoint enables ASPSP to return a report on the processing results of Payments in the file
  • The file is sent in the HTTP response body.
  • The file structure may match a payment execution report for the corresponding FileType in the file-payment-consent request.
  • HTTP headers (e.g. Content-Type) are used to describe the file.

# GET /file-payments/{FilePaymentId}/payment-details

A PISP can retrieve the Details of the underlying payment transaction(s) via this endpoint. This resource allows ASPSPs to return richer list of Payment Statuses, and if available payment scheme related statuses.

# Status

The file-payments - payment-details must have one of the following PaymentStatusCode code-set enumerations:

Status
Accepted
AcceptedCancellationRequest
AcceptedTechnicalValidation
AcceptedCustomerProfile
AcceptedFundsChecked
AcceptedWithChange
Pending
Rejected
AcceptedSettlementInProcess
AcceptedSettlementCompleted
AcceptedWithoutPosting
AcceptedCreditSettlementCompleted
Cancelled
NoCancellationProcess
