Description

Hello!

I was trying out your API and I'm struggling to understand how bank details are added by a user so that the application has access to the account data of the user.
I was trying to implement according to the wiki but the page seems to be quite outdated:
https://github.com/OpenBankProject/OBP-API/wiki/Add-a-bank-Account

The for me interesting part Banking Details doesn't describe how a user is redirected back to enter his account data after he is logged in by the OpenBankProject site and is redirected to the REDIRECT_URL.

Hopefully someone can help me understand this better.
Thanks

Research direction

Start with the wiki's Add-a-bank-Account page, especially the Banking Details section and its REDIRECT_URL flow. Verify how a user is expected to enter account data after logging in and being redirected, then update the documentation with the current steps and links so the integration can be followed without guesswork.
