Yodlee Rest API (coblogin) doesn't work with simple Rest Client


I'm trying to implement the Rest API for Yodlee using Spring RestTemplate. For starter I'm trying to use the simple chrome extenuation to test the API but it doesn't seem to work.

Solution

  • The content type needs to be application/x-www-form-urlencoded and the request needs to be properly formatted.For example:

    cobrandLogin=yourCobrandLogin&cobrandPassword=yourCobrandPassword

    I've noticed that the error messages for the rest api are extremely unhelpful.
