1. Introduction

This document describes the different components involved in delivering the integration between the API Hub and a LFI. The goal is to give a clear picture of which components exist, how they are used and what is expected to be delivered by each party.

In order to deliver the end to end journey for the User, the following APIs will be deployed.

  • The Authorisation Server and Consent Manager is built, deployed and maintained by Ozone.

  • The LFI is expected to build, deploy and maintain screens on their mobile and/or web app to support the Consent Authorisation flow.
