Sharable accounts - accounts that are accessible online.

<SharableAccountsRetrieveEndpoint>: Configures the endpoint to retrieve sharable accounts that required to list on the consent page.

Code Block

language	xml

<SharableAccountsRetrieveEndpoint>http://<WSO2_OB_APIM_HOST>:9763/open-banking/services/bankaccounts/bankaccountservice/sharable-accounts</SharableAccountsRetrieveEndpoint>

Payable accounts - accounts from which a PSU can make a payment.

<PayableAccountsRetrieveEndpoint>: Configures the endpoint to retrieve payable accounts that required to list on the consent page.

Code Block

language	xml

<PayableAccountsRetrieveEndpoint>http://<WSO2_OB_APIM_HOST>:9763/open-banking/services/bankaccounts/bankaccountservice/payable-accounts</PayableAccountsRetrieveEndpoint>

In some banks, some PSUs may have a certain number of accounts, but not all accounts have the ability to be shared externally or to make a payment online. In a bank, the sharable account list and the payable account list can either be the same or different.

In the default WSO2 Open Banking solution, at least two APIs are expected to return sharable and payable accounts when passing the user_id, and the given JSON response must be returned. Then it automatically loads the accounts list in the consent page.

The bank's backend endpoint for retrieving the user's accounts returns a response in the following format:

Code Block

Account:
    type: object
    properties:
      iban:
        type: string
        example: DE12345678901234567890
        description: IBAN of account
  GetAccountsResponse:
    type: object
    properties:
      customerNumber:
        type: string
      accounts:
        type: array
        items:
          $ref: '#/definitions/Account'
    description: The response related to the get method of Account

By default, mock backend deployed in WSO2_OB_APIM is configured. Required parameters can be passed as query parameters to those endpoints. An example of configuring the endpoint to retrieve payable accounts:

Configure SCA Methods for API responses. Depending on the risk management of the ASPSP this choice might be offered before or after the PSU has been identified with the first relevant factor, or if an access token is transported.

Following are the possible SCA Authentication types:

SMS_OTP	An SCA method, where an OTP linked to the transaction to be authorised is sent to the PSU through an SMS channel.
CHIP_OTP	An SCA method, where an OTP is generated by a chip card.
PHOTO_OTP	An SCA method, where the challenge is a QR code or similar encoded visual data which can be read in by a consumer device or specific mobile app.
PUSH_OTP	An OTP is pushed to a dedicated authentication APP and displayed to the PSU.

If Mutual Transport Layer Security (MTLS) is terminated before the request reaches the Gateway, retrieve the TPP's certificate from the MTLS session and include as a transport certificate header. By default, the gateway expects ssl.client.auth.cert.X509 as the transport header. Include the value for the transport certificate header in TransportCertificateHeader under CertificateManagement element. See the sample configuration below.

Code Block

language	xml

 <CertificateManagement>
        <!-- In order to enable the client certificate validation feature (Certificate Expiry, Signature and
        Revocation validation during MTLS), the following module needs to be engaged under the "Global Engaged
        Modules" section in the axis2.xml file.

        <module ref="mtlscertvalidator"/>
        -->

        <!--Set the value of the transport certificate header sent in the request if MTLS is terminated before the
        gateway default value is ssl.client.auth.cert.X509-->
        <TransportCertificateHeader>ssl.client.auth.cert.X509</TransportCertificateHeader>
</CertificateManagement>

Warning

The load balancer should not allow the TPP to send its certificate as a transport certificate header that is configured in the open-banking.xml under <TransportCertificateHeader> element.

If such header was found in the TPP’s request, it is mandatory to remove that header from the TPP’s request. This is applicable even when the MTLS session is not terminated at the load balancer.

When TLS is terminated before reaching the Gateway, to send the client certificate as a transport header, add the following configuration just above the <TransportCertificateHeader> tag:

Code Block

language	xml

<ClientTransportCertAsHeaderEnabled>true</ClientTransportCertAsHeaderEnabled>

20

In order to enable certificate revocation validation for API security, make sure that the following configurations are added under the server root element. For more information, see certificate revocation validation.

Code Block

language	xml

<CertificateManagement>
	<!-- Expiry time for the cache (in seconds) for storing the validation result of the certificates-->
	<ClientCertificateCacheExpiry>3600</ClientCertificateCacheExpiry>
	
	<!-- Enable/Disable certificate OCSP and CRL validation. Default value has been set to true -->
	<CertificateRevocationValidationEnabled>true</CertificateRevocationValidationEnabled>
</CertificateManagement>

21

Info
This feature is available as a WUM update from September 3, 2019 (09-03-2019) onwards.

To extend the certificate revocation validation by adding alternative approaches, configure the CertificateManagement configurations as follows:

Code Block

language	xml

<CertificateManagement>
	<ClientTransportCertAsHeaderEnabled>true</ClientTransportCertAsHeaderEnabled>
	<!-- Validate the issuer of the certificate when the client cert is received as a transport header -->
	<TransportCertIssuerValidationEnabled>true</TransportCertIssuerValidationEnabled>
	<!--Manager class implementation responsible for verifying certificate revocation status-->
	<RevocationValidationManagerImplClass>com.wso2.finance.open.banking.mtlscert.validator.service.CertRevocationValidationManagerImpl</RevocationValidationManagerImplClass>
	<!-- Retry count for validating certificate OCSP and CRL revocation status -->
	<CertificateRevocationValidationRetryCount>3</CertificateRevocationValidationRetryCount>
	<!-- List of issuer DNs whose issued certificates needs to be skipped from certificate revocation
    validation.
    e.g. <IssuerDN>CN=Test Pre-Production Issuing CA, O=Test, C=GB</IssuerDN>
    -->
	<RevocationValidationExcludedIssuers>
		<IssuerDN></IssuerDN>
	</RevocationValidationExcludedIssuers>
	<!--Truststore dynamic loading interval (in seconds). Default value has been set to 86400 seconds-->
	<TrustStoreDynamicLoadingInterval>86400</TrustStoreDynamicLoadingInterval>
</CertificateManagement>

By default, the Consent Management APIs are secured with basic authentication. To access the Consent Management APIs, use the default user or create a new user using the Key Manager Management Console.

Open the <WSO2_OB_APIM_HOME>/repository/conf/finance/open-banking.xml file.
Update the credentials under <APISecurity><Global> with the created user details.
By default, this is set to the username and password of the super admin.
Code Block
language xml
<APISecurity> <Global> <Username>admin@wso2.com</Username> <Password>wso2123</Password> </Global> </APISecurity>

See configuring basic authentication for Consent Management APIs for more information.

23

If the TPP certificate revocation validation is failing due to no internet connectivity, update the parameter values under <CertificateRevocationProxy> in <WSO2-OB-APIM-HOME>/repository/conf/finance/open-banking.xml , so that TPP certificate revocation will be done via a proxy server.

Code Block

language	xml

<CertificateRevocationProxy>
            <Enabled>false</Enabled>
            <ProxyHost>PROXY_HOSTNAME</ProxyHost>
            <ProxyPort>8080</ProxyPort>
</CertificateRevocationProxy>

language	xml

<CertificateManagement>
         <!--Mutual TLS Authenticator Certificate header-->
      <ClientAuthenticationHeader>x-wso2-mutual-auth-cert</ClientAuthenticationHeader>
 </CertificateManagement>

In addition to the above steps, follow the instructions described under MTLS bound access token .

25

To enforce regulatory certificates for API invocations, add the following configuration under the <CertificateManagement> tag:

Info
This is available only as a WUM update and is effective from April 26, 2021 (04-26-2021). For more information on updating WSO2 Open Banking, see Updating WSO2 Products.

Code Block

language	xml

<EnforceRegulatoryCertificates>true</EnforceRegulatoryCertificates>

Once you add the configuration, you can add the eIDAS certificates to the client trust stores.
