All,

I have been looking through the specs, specifically around the API to get transactions from an account.

Today, you can use services of card networks or PSPs to retrieve the transactions made on a card/bank account with the consent from the account holder. These transactions have a MID that tells us which merchant and outlet did the transaction happen at.

In the OepnId specs, when I download transactions from a bank account, how do I know which transactions were payments made to a merchant and which merchant which outlet of the merchant was the payment made to? Or this is something outside of the specs?



Regards,
Suhas
