List or search the unified institution catalog
Returns rows from the unified v3 institution catalog. Each row
carries a v3 catalog id (ins_...) and a capabilities block
advertising what LedgerSync can deliver (OAuth, transactions,
statements, check images) for this institution.
Use the returned id when initiating a connection —
LedgerSync’s router picks the underlying source.
Catalog is populated nightly from upstream Finicity, MX, and FDE institution data. Stale matches (rows added/removed upstream since the last reconciliation) may appear; the catalog converges within 24h.
Authorizations
Pass your secret key in the Authorization header as a Bearer
token: Authorization: Bearer sk_test_... (sandbox) or
Bearer sk_live_... (production).
Keys are created in the developer portal and the plaintext secret is shown exactly once at creation. Treat them like passwords — never embed them in mobile apps or front-end code.
Query Parameters
Optional name search (case-insensitive substring). Omit to return the full catalog (paginated in a later phase).
Response
A list of institutions matching the query.
