4.1 AU DSB Topics

4.1.1 Call for expressions of interest — CDR FAPI 2.0 alignment (CD210)

The background (Phillip/Dima) : the Australian CDR (Open Banking in Australia) is migrating to FAPI 2.0. The DSB has prepared a FAPI 2.0 profile and is seeking help from working group participants to review parts of it.

The text as posted:

The Data Standards Body (DSB) is continuing work on proposed changes to the Australian Consumer Data Right (CDR) Standards to support the adoption of FAPI 2.0 (CD210 – FAPI 2.0 Alignment). To support the ongoing development of these standards, the DSB is seeking expressions of interest from participants who would like to contribute to the review. A representative from Treasury will also be attending the FAPI Working Group Atlantic call on 26 August to support engagement on these proposed changes. To register your interest, please contact contact@dsb.gov.au.

4.1.2 Technical question — discovery metadata in FAPI 2.0

Phillip Koumides raised the FAPI 2.0 Security Profile clause requiring that the authorization server:

shall distribute discovery metadata (such as the authorization endpoint) via the metadata document as specified in [OIDD] and [RFC8414];

The CDR is currently built on OpenID Connect profiles and mandates the OIDD (/.well-known/openid-configuration) endpoint only. Phillip's question: if RFC 8414 metadata discovery is not also mandated, is the ecosystem still FAPI 2.0 compliant, or are both required?

Outcomes (Review and follow up from Atlantic call:

  • Joseph Heenan opened issue #862 on the "and" wording around discovery in the FAPI 2.0 Security Profile. He noted that, having looked at the text again, he is no longer confident the conformance suite interprets it correctly, so the wording needs to be pinned down before anything else follows.
  • Joseph Heenan opened issue #863 covering the suggested additional conformance test for discovery consistency.
  • Dima's recommendation for the CDR specifically: given a closed OpenID Connect-only ecosystem, mandate that clients use the OIDD endpoint outright. Servers may still publish both.
  • Phillip indicated the DSB is comfortable proceeding with OpenID Connect Discovery for now, and will consider mandating an OAuth discovery endpoint if it proves to be required — noting it means additional implementation work for authorization server operators even though the metadata itself would be identical.

5. Pull Requests


6. Issues

6.1 Issue #857 — last_updated vs last_updated_at in Grant Management

Issue #857, opened by Joseph Heenan, concerns claim-name consistency in Grant Management. The normative text defines a last_updated field, while the example uses last_updated_at.

6.2 OpenAPI-ready work

-- Related: issue #648

6.3 FAPI 1.0 private_key_jwt — 2026-09-09

Nat Sakimura noted he has circulated an intent to progress the FAPI 1.0 private_key_jwt-related work on 2026-09-09, referencing issue #848. He asked that Peter Stanley be connected on it.

6.4 Issue #849 — FAPI 2.0 in agentic AI flows

Issue #849 was revisited, having last been discussed two weeks earlier; Nat noted the AI space moves fast enough to warrant frequent refreshes.
