Flow (OFDA)
The end-to-end integration involves your frontend and backend. Below is an overview of how you can create links with the Hosted Connect widget.
As you can see, your client-side and server-side will both be involved in the Connect Widget flow.
Here is an end-to-end example to illustrate each side's responsibility:
- Your user signs up for your platform.
- Your user clicks a Add a bank account button within your application.
- Your backend calls Belvo to get an
access_token
. Belvo will return a validaccess_token
that you can then pass to start the widget. - Your user follows through the Hosted Widget journey. The user will be redirected to their institution to log in and provide consent to access their information.
- Once consent is granted, the user is redirected back to the Hosted Widget where they can see a summary of the data that is shared. The user can now safely close the widget.
- Belvo returns the newly created link
id
via callback to your frontend. Belvo will then start asynchronously retrieving the historical data for the link. - Belvo sends a webhook to your backend once data is available for each resource.
- Your backend retrieves the data using a GET call, passing the link
id
as a query parameter. - Belvo returns the info to your backend and forwards it to your frontend.
- Your user sees their financial data within your service.
