2. Register Investor Users

Overview

The components can only be used by authenticated ByAllAccounts Investor users. Investor users are the account holders, who will be interacting with the Account Linking and Account Summary components to provide the necessary inputs to authenticate with a financial institution, link accounts, and aggregate the selected account data.

You will need to register these users using the REST API prior to giving them access to the components within your application.
