It’s here…dark mode!

As we continue to add more functionality to Finastra’s developer portal, we are also building some fun UX features! No developer portal is complete without a dark mode, so we’ve added one. To enable dark mode, log in and navigate to ‘user settings’ in the top right corner. There you will find the preference to enable dark mode.

Data classification added to APIs

Finastra has a wide range of requirements to protect the confidentiality, integrity and availability of data under our custody. To protect data, we apply safeguards and controls which are appropriate given the sensitivity and criticality of the data.

There are two levels of classification of data:

1. Public data (for example market data)

2. Restricted data (information that is protected under GDPR or CCPA)

The data classification tagging applies both to API level and to endpoint level. The tag is included in each API reference documentation and can be found in the OpenAPI specification.

Read more about data classification here.

And if you have questions or need help, contact our dedicated team on the Community Q&A page.

Many thanks,

FusionFabric.cloud Team
