Introduction to

The Jack Henry LoanVantage API is based on REST and has predictable resource-oriented URLs. The Jack Henry LoanVantage API uses standard HTTP verbs and status codes and returns JSON-encoded responses.

The Jack Henry LoanVantage API protects access to user data using OAuth 2.0 . The user’s login credentials are never shared with third party apps. Authorization is provided to third party applications via an access_token.

The Jack Henry LoanVantage API provides authenticated user identity information using OpenID Connect (OIDC). With OpenID Connect, third party apps are provided authenticated information about the user in the form of an identity_token.

Both the access_token and identity_token are encrypted in JSON Web Token format.
