GiroIdent Introduction
Introduction
The GiroIdent Service is based on a set of Checks. As a partner application, the recommended integration of these checks is as follows:
- Partner application calls GiroIdent service Create Check with the relevant parameters. GiroIdent returns a GiroIdent Redirect URL. 
- Partner application sends (redirects) the user to “Web Form Redirect URL". 
- The user follows GiroIdent UI and grants GiroIdent access to her bank account. 
- The GiroIdent UI will optionally redirect the user to a result URL if configured by the partner application (via query parameters appended to the Redirect URL). 
- The partner application checks the GiroIdent result using the Get Check service and displays the result.
