API Basics and Restrictions

November First provides a simple and powerful API to integrate cross-border payments into your business or application.

November First API is organized around REST. The API has predictable, resource-oriented URL's, and uses HTTP response codes, and authorize using OAuth2 in connection with a Partner ID token. API security framework is OAuth 2.0. Request and response messages are in XML & JSON format.

~~~~To make it as easy to explore the November First API, we provide a sandbox environment to play around in. Requests made in the sandbox never hit the banking networks and incur no costs.

IMPORTANT RESTRICTIONS:

**The November First payment API only works with accounts that have payment initiation enabled**, therefore your customer has to have a bank account created and with a NETS Overfførsel integration enabled.

**All payments created by a partner will ALWAYS go through the November First approval flow process**, this means that a partner cannot execute payments through the Payment API, only create them so they will be executed internally by the allowed November First users.
