Description

Future: Canadian OAuth banking (RBC, TD, Scotiabank)

Canadian banks using OAuth (RBC, TD, Scotiabank) require HTTPS redirect URIs registered in the Plaid dashboard. This is deferred to a future phase.

Requirements

  • HTTPS endpoint for OAuth redirect URI
  • URI registered in Plaid dashboard under Team Settings → API → Allowed redirect URIs
  • Tailscale or reverse proxy for HTTPS termination

Notes

  • Non-OAuth institutions (BMO standard flow) work without this
  • Wealthsimple Cash also uses OAuth — same requirement
  • Once HTTPS is set up and URI registered, uncomment PLAID_REDIRECT_URI in .env

Research direction

Start by reviewing the HTTPS redirect URI requirement and the existing .env configuration, then check the Plaid dashboard settings under Team Settings → API → Allowed redirect URIs. Done means an HTTPS endpoint is available, the URI is registered, and PLAID_REDIRECT_URI can be uncommented for Canadian OAuth institutions.
