Instructions for Postman

This is a short guide on how to set up Postman.

To import a collection, select Collections > Import > Link and enter the following link https://bankaccountdata.gocardless.com/api/swagger.json

When importing, set Schema for both Request parameter generation and Response parameter generation under Advanced Options.

After importing, you should have a new collection named "Bank Account Data API" and a new API defined.

Head to Collections, click "Bank Account Data API", and do the following:

Under Authorization, change the authorization value from true to Bearer YOUR_TOKEN. Since all requests inherit the security settings from the parent, they will use the token that you've configured here. Save the settings. An example value: Bearer 848774FFDEDFAKETOKEN88483AC12

Now your Postman is set up and you can continue instructions from Quickstart Guide.
