The European Payments Council released the EPC Directory Service Application Programming Interfaces specifications

22 aprilie 2025

This specification outlines the functionalities available through the EDS API, including the Automated Download Service for retrieving the full EDS content in the “EDS Local File” format and the Consumer and Provisioning API for managing scheme participants’ records and VOP URIs. The new document is available in both YAML and JSON formats, complementing the previously published guides. 

The EPC Directory Service (EDS) is accessible by scheme participants and their technical providers (e.g. Routing and/or Verification Mechanisms (RVM) for the Verification Of Payee (VOP) scheme) through a Web Graphical User Interface (GUI), and through EDS Application Programming Interfaces (API). 

Once the adherence to the VOP scheme is completed and the onboarding in the EDS – including also user creation and activation in SWIFT user management platform “swift.com” – the scheme participants and the RVMs can access the EDS via APIs. More details about the EDS onboarding and user creation, including also the procedure for accessing the APIs will be provided in the “EDS Onboarding and Registration Guide” (coming soon).

The EDS functions available to the scheme participants and their RVMs through the EDS APIs are:

. Via “Automated Download Service” API: Download of the full EDS content in the “EDS Local File” format

. via Consumer and Provisioning API: YAML and JSON files
