For Agents

Administer BANKSapi tenants, mint OAuth2 tokens, and orchestrate end-to-end PSD2 bank access, consent, and payment flows for European banking customers. Used by agents managing the full lifecycle of an open banking integration.

Install Jentic One Beta

Connect the BANKS/Connect API Reference to your agent

Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the BANKS/Connect API Reference, or any other public or private API you need. You set the rules, the agent never sees your credentials, and every call is logged.

Two steps, two machines. Install the instance in a safe environment, then register your agent from wherever it runs.

Step 1: Jentic One Host machine

# On the machine that will host your Jentic One instance:
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | sh

Step 2: Agent machine

# On the machine where your agent runs (keep this separate from the instance):
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | sh
jentic register       # connects your agent to your Jentic One instance

Jentic One is in public beta. The setup above keeps your agent separate from the instance, which is what you want before using real credentials: an agent running as the same OS user as Jentic One can read its stored keys directly. Just evaluating? A single local install is fine to start. See the secure deployment guide for the tiers.

View OpenAPI Document

Jentic publishes the only available OpenAPI specification for the BANKS/Connect API Reference, keeping it validated and agent-ready. BANKS/Connect v2 is the full-surface BANKSapi platform covering tenant and user administration, OAuth2 token management, customer bank access, payment initiation, REG/Protect compliance flows, and provider metadata. Operators administer tenants and users through the Auth management endpoints, mint and revoke OAuth2 tokens, and orchestrate end-customer banking through the Customer Bank Access, Customer Consent, and Customer Payment surfaces. This is the deeper administrative surface complementing the higher-level BANKS/Connect summary endpoints.

Use Cases

Patterns agents use BANKS/Connect API Reference API for, with concrete tasks.

★ Multi-Tenant Open Banking Platform Operations

Run a multi-tenant open banking platform where each tenant has its own users, OAuth2 tokens, and customer base. The BANKS/Connect v2 Auth management surface handles tenant-scoped user lifecycle including create, deactivate, reactivate, and update operations, while the OAuth2 endpoints manage the token lifecycle. Suitable for fintech operators serving multiple banks or merchants under one BANKSapi contract.

Create a tenant user via POST /auth/mgmt/v1/tenants/{tenant-name}/users, then mint an OAuth2 access token via POST /auth/oauth2/token for that user.

End-to-End Customer Payment Flow

Drive a complete customer payment journey from bank access creation through consent grant to SEPA Ueberweisung initiation. The Customer Bank Access, Customer Consent, and Customer Ueberweisung surfaces work together to guide the end user through PSD2-compliant authorisation and trigger the actual transfer once consent is in place. Useful for invoicing, payroll-style payouts, and account-funded checkout.

Create a customer bank access, wait for consent grant, then call the Customer Ueberweisung endpoint to initiate a 500 EUR SEPA transfer and confirm completion.

Compliance and Provider Health Monitoring

Monitor the health of provider connections and run regulated compliance checks (REG/Protect) for workflows that need additional verification. Provider job statistics surface success and error counts across the connected bank network so operators can detect outages early. Pair with the Encrypt endpoint to wrap sensitive payloads when integrating with downstream regulated systems.

Pull provider job statistics via GET /providers/v2/statistics/jobs and alert if error rate for a specific provider exceeds 5% in the last hour.

AI Agent Banking Operations Assistant via Jentic

Run an internal operations assistant that can provision new tenant users, rotate OAuth2 tokens, and inspect customer consent state on demand. The agent searches Jentic for an intent like 'create a tenant user' or 'revoke an oauth2 token', loads the matched operation schema, and executes the call with credentials held in the Jentic vault. This avoids exposing tenant admin credentials to the LLM context.

Search Jentic for 'revoke an oauth2 token', execute POST /auth/oauth2/revoke with the compromised token id, and confirm revocation status.

Why Jentic?

Three things that make agents converge on Jentic-routed access.

Credential isolation

BANKSapi basic credentials and OAuth2 bearer tokens are stored encrypted in the Jentic vault. Agents receive scoped execution access, and tokens are injected at request time so the LLM context never holds raw secrets.

Intent-based discovery

Agents search Jentic by intent (for example, 'mint an oauth2 token' or 'list bank providers') and Jentic returns the matching BANKS/Connect operations with their input schemas, including the right authentication scheme.

Time to first call

Direct BANKSapi v2 integration: 2-3 weeks for tenant setup, OAuth2 wiring, and consent orchestration. Through Jentic: under 2 hours once tenant credentials are stored, since search-load-execute replaces handcrafted clients.

FAQs

Specific to using BANKS/Connect API Reference API through Jentic.

Why is there no official OpenAPI spec for BANKS/Connect API Reference?

BANKSapi does not publish an OpenAPI specification for its full v2 surface. Jentic generates and maintains this spec so that AI agents and developers can call BANKS/Connect via structured tooling. It is validated against the live API and kept up to date. Get started at https://app.jentic.com/sign-up.

What authentication does the BANKS/Connect API Reference use?

The API supports both HTTP basic authentication and HTTP bearer tokens. OAuth2 access tokens are minted via POST /auth/oauth2/token and presented as bearer credentials on protected calls. When called through Jentic, both basic credentials and bearer tokens are isolated in the encrypted vault.

How do I mint an OAuth2 token in BANKS/Connect?

Call POST /auth/oauth2/token with grant type and client credentials. The response includes an access_token and expiry; cache and refresh before expiry. To invalidate a leaked token call POST /auth/oauth2/revoke with the token value.

Can I initiate SEPA payments with BANKS/Connect v2?

Yes. The Customer Ueberweisung and Customer Bank Access Payment surfaces let you initiate SEPA credit transfers from a consented customer bank access. Consent must be active before initiation; check status via the Customer Consent endpoints before submitting the transfer.

What are the rate limits for the BANKSapi BANKS/Connect API?

Rate limits are tenant-scoped and defined in your contract rather than published globally. For provider polling, use the /providers/v2/statistics/jobs endpoint to monitor health and avoid retry storms when a single provider is degraded.

How do I provision a new tenant user through Jentic?

Install the Jentic SDK with pip install jentic, search for 'create a tenant user', and execute POST /auth/mgmt/v1/tenants/{tenant-name}/users with the user details. Jentic injects the management credentials at execution time so the agent never sees the admin secret.
