The OpenID Foundation recently hosted a series of Financial-grade API (FAPI) outreach workshops in Australia in partnership with the Data Standards Body team.

Workshop objectives:

  • To update participants on the latest developments in both the OIDF Financial-Grade API (FAPI) profile and DSB requirements.
  • To demonstrate the respective conformance tools and the benefits of certification including why conformance and certification is critical to ensuring standards are secure and interoperable.
  • To provide participants with help and support in using these tools.
