bunq API

UPDATE: We have released a [beta version of the new bunq API documentation.](https://beta.doc.bunq.com) NOTICE: We have updated the sandbox base url to https://public-api.sandbox.bunq.com/v1/ . Please update your applications accordingly. Check here: for more info. PSD2 NOTICE: The second Payment Services Directive (PSD2) may affect your current or planned usage of our public API, as some of the API services are now subject to a permit. Please be aware that using our public API without the required PSD2 permit is at your own risk and take notice of our updated API Terms and Conditions on for more information. Introduction Welcome to bunq! - The bunq API is organised around REST. JSON will be returned in almost all responses from the API, including errors but excluding binary (image) files. - Please configure your implementation to send its API requests to https://public-api.sandbox.bunq.com/v1/ - There is a version of the [Android app](https://appstore.bunq.com/api/android/builds/bunq-android-sandbox-master.apk) that connects to the bunq Sandbox environment. To create accounts for the Sandbox app, please follow the steps in the [Android Emulator]( android-emulator) section. Getting started Before you start sending API requests, you need to get an API key and activate it. API activation happens when you install the API key and link your IP address and device to it (create an API context) . The steps below will guide you through what you need to do to start sending custom API requests. Here is an overview of what you can use to get started with the bunq API: 1. Create an API key. You can do it either in our [developer portal](https://developer.bunq.com) or in the bunq app (Profile → Security & Settings → Developers → API keys) . If you want to test our sandbox first, our [bunq Developer ](https://developer.bunq.com)is the best place to start. 2. Register a device. A device can be a phone (private), computer or a server (public). You can register a new device by using the POST /installation and POST /device-server calls. This will activate your API key. You only need to do this once. 3. Open a session. Sessions are temporary and expire after the auto-logout time set for the user account. It can be changed by the account owner in the bunq app. 4. Make your first call!  Versioning Developments in the financial sector, changing regulatory regimes and new feature requests require us to be flexible. This means we can iterate quickly to improve the API and related tooling. Therefore, we have chosen not to attach any version numbers to the changes just yet. We will inform you in a timely manner of any important changes we make before they are deployed on together.bunq.com. You can also [subscribe to our API newsletter](https://bunq.us8.list-manage.com/subscribe?u=c00d0d6daea4e1cf7c863d52e&id=b08680cdc7) to make sure you don't miss any important updates. OAuth What is OAuth? [OAuth 2.0](https://www.oauth.com/oauth2-servers/getting-ready/) is a protocol that will let your app connect to bunq users in a safe and easy way. Please be aware that if you will gain access to the account information of other bunq users or initiate a payment for them, [you may require a PSD2 permit](https://beta.doc.bunq.com/other/faq can-we-use-the-bunq-api-to-offer-services-to-third-parties). Get started with OAuth for bunq To initiate authorization into the bunq user accounts, you need to create an OAuth Client and register at least 1 redirect URL for it. You can have 1 OAuth Client at a time. Reuse your OAuth credentials for every authorization request. The list of steps below will help you to get started: 1. Register an OAuth Client by creating an app in [bunq Developer](https://developer.bunq.com/portal) . 2. Add one or more Redirect URLs. 3. Get your client id and secret from your app information tab in [bunq Developer](https://developer.bunq.com/portal). 4. Redirect your users…
