API Configuration
Configure every aspect of using your Finlink app through our API; from login credentials to the use of webhooks ⚙️
Introduction
Here you'll find a guide on to configure everything you need to manage your interaction with our API.
Webhook
Our webhooks allow you to create completely asynchronous workflows when working with us. We highly recommend you to look into implementing webhooks in your flow. Webhooks allow you to receive updates faster than polling, making the integration work better. You can follow our guide and best practices on webhooks.
Client Secrets
Client secrets are used for programatically starting an API session related to a specific app. They are extremely sensitive and should not be shared with anyone.
Creating a secret
Go into App Settings -> API Secrets. At that page you can find the table "Credentials".
Revoking a secret
In case a secret gets compromised, or you just want to delete an unused one, we offer you an option to revoke a secret. Revoking a secret will terminate the active session associated to it if there's any. Revoking a secret is permanent, so be certain you are removing the correct secret.
To revoke a secret, go to App Settings -> API Client. In the "Credentials" table, you'll find a button to revoke secrets in each secret's row.
When revoking a secret, you will be prompted with your account password to confirm the operation.
Limitations
You can only create up to 5 secrets per app
Every secret can only have 1 active session at a time. If a new session is started with a secret being in use, the previous session will be revoked
Link configuration
Since our Link is such an important part of the flow, we have reserved a full section in these docs to configure them.
