Remove the extra line break and possible exclamation mark (!) or three dots (…) if it exists in the middle. It is important that the link is on one line in the text editor. If using Notepad and the editor breaks the line, turn off Word Wrap under Format. Copy and paste the repaired link to your browser.

Create your app

After you login you can create a new application (app) of your own from the My apps page. This creates an app on the Developer Portal and provides you the app's Client ID and Client Secret. You will also be able to select the APIs your app utilises.

Choose +Create app:

Give a name to your app and select a team. OAuth redirect URL can be any random address in Sandbox, you can use for example “localhost.com” and Create app:

OAuth redirect URL is actually not used in Sandbox environment but when applying real Production Access it is important in compliance/PSD2 context and then you have to give a valid address.

Now the app is created. Copy Client Secret and press Go to sandbox:

Manage your app

Once you have created the app you can manage your app from the App details page. You can also reset your app's Client Secret:

You can manage your app's API subscriptions to different API products by assigning all API products or just some of them to your app from Product list. You need to subscribe for testing purposes to be able to reach out Sandbox and API console test data:

Under Teams/My team you can manage who gets to see and edit your apps. You can change ownership, delete team and add and remove members:

Use and test APIs

API console

After creating your app, you can use your app´s Client ID and Client Secret to make API calls to the Sandbox environment. Make sure you have already subscribed to the APIs you want to test in the API console!

Swagger files

You can download Swagger files for different Nordea APIs from:

Postman

Postman is a REST client for testing APIs. It allows the user to send requests, save responses, add tests and create workflows. You can learn more about Postman here and learn how to use Postman to test APIs here.

Postman collections for different Nordea APIs can be downloaded from:

Swagger and Postman files (Nordea API Market Resources)

Postman collections for different Nordea APIs can be downloaded also from GitHub.
