Get Institution

Overview

Returns a single institution, including the list of Platforms supported by Basis at the Institution.

Use cases

• Initialize Connect directly to a specific Platform. To do this, use the platform_id in your initialization token.
• Provide a descriptive name of the Platform to users for them to identify their account easily. We recommend using the Platform's display_name for this - on "Connect your bank" buttons, for example.
• Disambiguate Platforms when multiple Platforms exist at an Institution, or multiple Institutions have similar names. The homepage_url will be recognizable by the bank user as the website at which they manage their accounts online.
