JAVA SDK Enhancements and Bug Fixes

    • The SDK is updated to accommodate changes mentioned for Yodlee APIs.
  • Bug fix -
    • Get Net Worth Summary Service –
      The get net worth summary API service currently does not consider accounts marked as includeInNetWorth=false for the net worth calculation, even if the account ID is explicitly passed in the accountId query parameter.
      The API service has been enhanced to consider all accounts that are passed in the accountId query parameter irrespective of the includeInNetWorth=false flag.

FastLink – New Features/Enhancements

Ability to Pull Transaction History When Performing Balance Refresh

Some customers require the ability for the end users to refresh their account balances and retrieve transaction data. With this update, FastLink 4 will honor the transaction interval selected within the configuration tool and pull transaction data for the selected number of days when initiating the balance refresh flow. Previously, transactions were not honored during the balance refresh flow.

  • This feature applies only to Verification customers who have also enabled transactions.
  • By default, this feature is turned OFF. To enable this feature, click Set preferences on the Configuration Tool and view the RETURN section. Select the Pull transactions on each balance refresh checkbox under the Add transaction history section. Click Save and re-publish.
  • The balance refresh flow must be invoked and a configname has to be passed with this setting turned ON.

Aggregation Checkbox Configuration

The option to not display the checkboxes on the aggregation account summary screen has been provided in the Configuration Tool. Previously, this was NOT configurable, and checkboxes were always displayed next to each account, allowing the user to unselect or remove the accounts they did not want to save.

  • Customers can turn the checkboxes OFF through a toggle setting in the Configuration Tool. By default, this toggle setting is ON.
  • This option is only available on the Aggregation Account Summary screen which occurs in the Aggregation and unified flows.
  • This setting is NOT available for Open Banking Account Summary screens.

Net Worth Toggle Configuration

The ability to turn ON or OFF the Include in Net Worth toggle on the Add Manual and Real Estate FastLink screens has been introduced in the Configuration Tool.

  • When the user adds their account with the Include in Net Worth toggle ON, that asset or liability will be included in their net worth calculations. By default, the toggle is included on the screen. This can be turned OFF in the Configuration Tool.
  • The default state of the toggle is ON; this is also configurable.
  • The display text of the Net Worth toggle can also be configured.

Account Verification – New Features/Enhancements

Verified Accounts API

The verified accounts API lets verification customers retrieve the verification request's status initiated in FastLink 4 and provides additional details of the verified accounts. The status of the verification request depends on the configurations done for the verification template in the FastLink Configuration Tool.

CDV Webhooks

To improve the developer experience, a new webhook has been introduced to notify customers when there is a change in status of the user-initiated challenge deposit verification (CDV) requests. Customers should subscribe to the new event CDV_STATUS_UPDATES that is dedicated for this webhook. For more information, refer to Challenge Deposit Status Notification.

Hard Deletion of User Data from FastLink

As per Australian CDR Compliance guidelines, the end-user is provided the ability to choose permanent deletion of their transactional data. An optional toggle button is provided in the application to control this preference. The Yodlee Platform has been enhanced to permanently-delete all transactional data should the user choose to do so in the application.

Updating CDR Policy Guidelines URL

The URL on the consent page is currently redirecting the users to the CDR Policy website. The URL has been updated to redirect users to Envestnet | Yodlee-hosted URL/content.

Removing ADR Number for Third Parties as a Mandatory Field

In the FastLink Configuration Tool, the Third Party ADR Number field has been replaced with an optional Third Party URL field during the onboarding flow. In the AU region, not all customers may be associated with a third party. The third parties, if associated, will not have any ADR numbers as they’re not the data recipients for the AU region.
