Introduction

IDkollen provides a JSON/REST API for authenticating and signing with BankID.

The API is only accessible with SSL and a unique key provided by IDkollen. The key is private and should not be shared with a third party. The API should only be called from a server application, not directly from the client.

When signing up you will receive API keys for IDKollens staging and live environment.

Usage flow​

  1. The user initiates an authentication via the partner's interface.
  2. The partner calls IDkollen's API with the secret key to get to initiate an authentication.
  3. IDkollen sends response to partner with information about the initiated authentication.
  4. The answer from IDkollen is displayed to the user by the partner.
  5. The user identifies him- or herself with BankID.
  6. IDkollen sends the result to the partners callback endpoint.

Staging environment (test)​

Please note that the Staging environment only works with Test BankID: https://www.bankid.com/en/utvecklare/test/skaffa-testbankid/test-bankid-get

Callback URL​

If you'd prefer not to supply the callbackUrl in the Authentication request, you can supply us with a callbackUrl that the responses from us will default to. To do so, email us at support@idkollen.se.

Secret key​

To initiate requests to the API a secret key is needed. To request a secret key, contact support@idkollen.se.
