Diagnose a failing BANKSapi API call or bank connection. Use when the user shares an HTTP status or error response from banksapi.io, a BANKSapi message code such as BA1011 or BA3000, gets a 451 response, sees a start_sca relation or an expired consent, or reports that a bank access stopped updating.

How matches are found. Word for word: the exact same text. Edited: shares passages with this file (“99% same” means 99% of its five-word phrases also appear here; 10% or more counts). Their own version: similar meaning, or, weakest, the same name. We can’t tell which project had it first. Projects are counted among the 200 most-starred candidates, and mentions are links to the repository we found, up to 50 per site, so both counts are a floor.

The file
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
3 rules. 0 are common, 0 are distinctive, and 3 are very specific to this project.
0
Common
Most of the 174 edited versions we read keep these.
0
Distinctive
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
3
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
- Common
- Distinctive
- Very specific
- Very specific: line 8
Start with what failed. Ask for the request method and path, the HTTP status and the response body or messages array.
- Very specific: line 46
Call
get_issues: if there is no start_sca. The issues response is the latest attempt, not the last good data, and its messages say what … - Very specific: line 47
Check the refresh timing: if there are no issues. Synced bank accesses refresh up to four times a day.
“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 174 edited versions of this file we could read. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.
Files
Diagnose a BANKSapi problem
Start with what failed. Ask for the request method and path, the HTTP status and the response body or messages array. Ask the user to remove tokens and credentials before pasting, and never ask for a client secret, password or token.
Where the facts come from
The BANKSapi documentation at https://docs.banksapi.de is the authority on the API, and BANKSapi adds message codes over time. The tables below are a quick orientation. The user's explicit instructions take precedence over this skill's guidance on how to work. Before you name a cause, check the status or code against the current documentation:
- With the
banksapi-docstools:get-banksapi-docs-pageon https://docs.banksapi.de/guide/errors-messages.html, orsearch-banksapi-docswith the code or the error text - Without them, the docs connector isn't connected in this session. Tell the user once that connecting it in their assistant's settings gives live access to the documentation, and read https://docs.banksapi.de/guide/errors-messages.html directly. https://docs.banksapi.de/llms.txt lists every other page
Where the documentation and this file differ, follow the documentation.
By HTTP status
| Status | Where | Most likely cause | Fix | Who acts |
| 401 | POST /auth/oauth2/token | The HTTP Basic credentials were rejected | Check that the username is <tenant>/<client> and that the Base64 value encodes <tenant>/<client>:<client-secret>. If the same credentials worked before, the client secret has most likely been changed: request the current one | Developer |
| 401 | any other call | The Authorization: Bearer <token> header is missing | Send the header | Developer |
| 403 | any call | The token has expired after two hours, is invalid, or lacks a scope | Fetch a new token. Compare the scope in the token response with what the call needs | Developer |
| 404 | any call | The URL no longer points to a valid object | Read the parent object again and follow its relations | Developer |
| 451 | adding a bank access, starting SCA | Not an error. REG/Protect requires the end customer to continue on a BANKSapi page | Take the Location header, append a URL-encoded callbackUrl and redirect the end customer. useCase=CREATE_ACCOUNT adds a bank, useCase=AUTHENTICATE_ACCOUNT renews consent | End customer |
| 504 | any call | The bank answered too slowly | Repeat the request shortly | Nobody |
| 500 | any call | An internal error | Report it to support@banksapi.de with the time and the request path | BANKSapi |
By message code
Message codes appear in the messages of a bank access or bank product, and in the response of get_issues. The common groups:
- BA1010 to BA1014: the bank rejected the login, the access is blocked, or credentials are incomplete. The end customer must fix their bank login. Warn them that repeated wrong attempts can lock online banking
- BA1000, BA1051: maintenance or a malfunction at the bank. Wait and refresh later
- BA998: the bank is slow. The query continues in the background and usually finishes within minutes
- BA3000 to BA3060: strong customer authentication is required or failed. The end customer must complete it
- BA2002: the bank has messages for the end customer in their online banking
A bank access stopped updating
Work through these in order:
- Look for
start_scain the bank accessrelations. It means consent has run out, usually after 180 days. POST to that relation, and handle the451answer like adding a bank access, withuseCase=AUTHENTICATE_ACCOUNT. The last good data stays readable until the end customer renews - Call
get_issuesif there is nostart_sca. The issues response is the latest attempt, not the last good data, and itsmessagessay what went wrong - Check the refresh timing if there are no issues. Synced bank accesses refresh up to four times a day. Force a refresh with
AddBankAccess, the existing UUID andrefresh=true, which answers201 Created
How to answer
Name the cause in one sentence. Give the fix as concrete steps or code. Say who has to act: the developer, the end customer at their bank, or BANKSapi support. Link the docs page you used as a full https://docs.banksapi.de URL.
Does it work?
Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.
