How to use the consent journey as an Iframe

In order to create a consent journey connection just add iframe=true in the url's query params.

Embedding the journey

When you create a new connection you get the link to the journey, copy the link and paste it in the SRC of the Iframe.
When the iframe show up the journey will open.

<h2>Open Finance Iframe</h2>
<p>You can use the height and width attributes to specify the size of the iframe:</p>
 <script>
  /* journey window and iframe container */
  let iframeContainer = null

  /* style helper functions */
  const objectToCss = (obj) => Object.keys(obj).map((key) => `${key}: ${obj[key]}`).join(';') + ';'

  /* styles */
  const iframeStyle = objectToCss({
    'border-width': '0',
    border: '0',
  })

  const modalStyle = objectToCss({
    position: 'fixed',
    top: '0',
    left: '0',
    'z-index': '2147483647',
    width: '100%',
    height: '100%',
    border: '0',
      backgroundColor: 'transperent',
  })

  /* functions */
  // user controlled functions
  let abort = () => {
    console.log('aborted')
  }
  let approve = (data) => {
    console.log('approved', data)
  }
  let failed = (data) => {
    console.log('failed', data)
  }

  // global functions
  function closeAll() {
    iframeContainer.remove()
  }

  /* main functions  */
  const init = (options = {}) => {
    const {
      onApprove = approve,
      onAbort = abort,
      onFailed = failed,
    } = options

    approve = onApprove
    abort = onAbort
    failed = onFailed
  }

  const start = async (webUrl) => {
    /* window post messages listener */
    window.addEventListener('message', ({
      origin,
      data,
    }) => {
      if (!data || (data.source !== 'waiting' && data.source !== 'journey') || !data.type) {
        return
      }

      const {
        type,
      } = data

      switch (type) {
        case 'close':
          abort()
          closeAll()
          break
        case 'success':
          approve(data)
          closeAll()
          break
        case 'fail':
          failed(data)
          closeAll()
        default:
          break
      }
    })

    // modal
    iframeContainer = document.createElement('div')
    iframeContainer.style = modalStyle

    // create the waiting iframe
    const mainIframe = document.createElement('iframe')

    mainIframe.src = webUrl
    mainIframe.style = modalStyle + iframeStyle
    mainIframe.allowtransparency = true

    const timer = setInterval(function () {
      if (mainIframe.closed) {
        clearInterval(timer)
        closeAll()
      }
    }, 1000)

    iframeContainer.appendChild(mainIframe)
    document.body.appendChild(iframeContainer)
  }

  const openFinance = {
    init,
    start,
  }

  // To use openFinance in your JS code, you need to assign it to a global variable
  window.openFinance = openFinance

 </script>
</body>
</html>

After implementing the JS snippet you can now access 2 function on the windows

// the init function gets functions as parameters in order to handle the connection journey events
openFinance.init({ onApprove, onAbort, onFailed })
// the start function initializes the connection journey with the connect url given from create connection API
openFinance.start(connectUrl)
