Necessary Account Settings
Wyre must manually configure the Users API on your master account. Please reach out to sales if interested.
Overview
The basic process looks like this:
• Create User
• Approve User by Scope
• Transact!
Step 1: Creating the User
Call the Create User endpoint to create the user.
Step 2: Approving the User by Scope
Approvals in the users system exist in the context of scopes. Because end-user requirements differ across available Wyre functionality, scopes are used to constrain the API based on the specific intent of a single user.
User Scope Approval Process:
• To see the fields required for a specific scope, call Get User and pass the scopes query parameter
• Identify any fields that are in OPEN status
• Call Update User to submit this data to Wyre. Use masquerading
• Repeat until all required fields are in SUBMITTED status
When all OPEN fields have been SUBMITTED and necessary KYC onboarding has been performed, the User Scope will move into APPROVED status.
Step 3: Transact!
Now that your user is approved to transact, you may begin Using Transfers! Remember to use masquerading for requests made on behalf of your users. This simple pattern helps to firewall permission boundaries between users and your partner-level API credentials.
Users each have their own set of custodial balances (including all our supported fiat and crypto). This is where funds are reflected which is sent to the blockchain addresses tied to the user. Users may be used as the source or destination via the Transfer API to move and exchange these funds.
