# Funds Confirmation - v3.1.9

# Overview

The Funds Confirmation resource is used by an CBPII to request to confirm funds are available.

This resource description should be read in conjunction with a compatible Confirmation of Funds API Profile.

# Endpoints

Resource HTTP Operation Endpoint Mandatory ? Scope Grant Type Message Signing Idempotency Key Request Object Response Object
funds-confirmation POST POST /funds-confirmations Mandatory fundsconfirmations Authorization Code No No OBFundsConfirmation1 OBFundsConfirmationResponse1

# POST /funds-confirmations

If the CBPII would like to confirm funds with the ASPSP, it should create a new funds-confirmation resource, and check the funds available flag in the response.

  • The ASPSP creates the funds-confirmation resource and responds with a unique FundsConfirmationId to refer to the resource, and a flag confirming if funds are available.
  • The CBPII must use a token issued via an authorization code grant and specify the ConsentId in the request payload.
  • This CBPII must use a currency of the account.

# Data Model

This data dictionary section gives the detail on the payload content.
