Data Export
Data export solution description
The data export solution is a new external Push Service totally independent from the existing scoring notification request, containing a maximum of information of the transaction and the authentication process.
The platform HUB purposes two kinds connectivity with banks for this purpose.
- The data are sent by Webservice to API REST bank Server end-point
or
- The data are sent by file to bank file Server
Data export scheme
The data export solution defined is based on data conveyed in the AReq and RReq messages + Scoring and authentication process.
It takes advantage of the HUB to provide the necessary available data from those messages.
The HUB is the key module to collect and to treat those data as it is the central module involved in the 3DS authentication process.
The messages contain most of the relevant information needed to get the context of a transaction and to provide enough information to consolidate and refine the authorization process.
Workflow of the process:
- The HUB collect data from Areq and Rreq messages.
- The datas are encrypted and sent through messages to the transaction export gateway.
- The data are sent through a specific gateway to the IS bank according to the selected option (batch file or real time).
Real-time push option
With this solution, bank will be able to receive the data just after the authentication transaction ending (after RReq/RRes message).
The data are pushed to bank through a dedicated Webservice API.
The data will be sent on a REST JSON format. The Web Services will be transmitted in HTTPS - TLS 1.2 and will be configured on the Worldline PCI-DSS Proxy as followed:
- By default on internet with a mandatory mutualized authentication
- If asked by the bank, on a VPN or LS
A rate limiter is defined (max TPS) on the HUB push platform and must be configured depending on Issuer Bank transaction volume and IS Bank Server capacity.
If the HUB cannot reach the bank Webservice, a retry process is forecasted. This retry flow is ordered by a FIFO rule.
Two kind of errors are defined, some are due to context and triggers a retry attempt, some are due to data or configuration error and will no triggered any retry. Cf. 3.5.1.2
The retention of data is fixed for a 4 days period. During this time laps the transactions are systematically pushed to the bank until the bank module responds.
After 4 days, the transaction and data not transmitted are deleted from the queue.
Batch file option
With this solution, bank will receive the data through a file.
The file will be generated with a frequency of at least 2 files per day (one per site).
A ‘pull’ or ‘push’ process could be implemented to share the files with IS Bank.
A file system solution will allow Worldline to keep the file during 2 weeks. After this period, the files will be deleted.
The data will be sent on a JSON format through the PCI-DSS gateway on sFTP or PESIT SSL. File could be encrypted in GPG or SMIME.
Data Export WS Client
Referential WS Client
Referential WS Client is the standard referential interfaces exposed by the Issuers' Bank.
ACS is therefore client of the Bank Information System.
Thanks to this API ACS can :
- get card information from the Bank Information System ;
- update cards/users/credentials information to the Bank Information System.
Referential Batch
Version 24R2-1.2 of May 14th 2024
The referential card of an issuer is required. It is used for enrollment and authentication needs of cardholders.
In mode batch the issuer sends a periodic file to the platform in order to operate the provisionning of cardholder data.
The referential management is based on a XML file. This file takes in charge the creation of cardholders, cards and authentication data.
Retro compatibility with old XML and flat file formats is managed.

2. Description of referential file in format xml
The structure of file is given by the following figure. The possible values of each field and potential error codes are described in the following tables.
The maximum number of cardholders in a file is limited to 999 999 records.
An example of a report with errors is also available.
2.1. File transfer mode
File transfers are carried out through a VPN tunnel or on Internet. Two protocols are available FTPs or PesitSSL.
2.2. Security of exchanges through file transfers
2.2.1 File encryption/decryption
Files containing sensitive data can be encrypted using PGP.
GPG is used.
The Issuer must use an encryption program that is compatible with the free GPG program used by equensWorldline, which makes it possible to ensure the authenticity and confidentiality of the transferred file with an RSA key.
GPG is a free implementation of the RSA algorithm that complies with the OpenPGP standard (RFC2440).
A REAL NAME (e.g. IssuerName_3DSAtos), a COMMENT (e.g. Atos 3DS signature by Issuer Name) and an E-MAIL ADDRESS will be specified to generate the keys.
The encryption algorithm used is AES256.
The ISSUER and equensWorldline exchange the public keys via e-mail in ASC format.
Keys are valid for 19 months.
To comply with PCI, the key must not be used for encryption for more than 12 consecutive months. The expiry date is set to 19 months to allow restoration for 6 months; an extra month is added to the validity period of the key.
File encryption/decryption procedure:
Exchange of keys (carried out every 12 months):
- ISSUER generates a pair of keys: Public Key (P1) and Secret Key (S1);
- equensWorldline generates a pair of keys: Public Key (P2) and Secret Key (S2);
- Issuer and equensWorldline exchange their P1 and P2 public keys.
For the encryption/decryption of a file sent by ISSUER to equensWorldline, the file is encrypted with equensWorldline’s P2 key and signed with ISSUER’s S1 private key.
For the encryption/decryption of a file sent by equensWorldline to ISSUER, the file is encrypted with ISSUER’s P1 key and signed with equensWorldline’s S2 private key.
Keys are renewed through equensWorldline’s change tool. The application manager will get in touch with the customer contact appointed during the creation of the key to ask them to send the new public key; in return, they will provide equensWorldline’s new public key. The content to exchange will be the result of the export of the public key into ASCII. This will be sent via e-mail. To validate the public keys exchanged, each person involved will have to phone their appointed contract to obtain and validate the fingerprint of the key. It is imperative that the fingerprint be validated before the public key is used.
2.2.2. Data security
The sensitive data contained in the file must be encrypted. Authentication data and card information are considered as sensitive.
For the repository file, the data to encrypt are:
- The PAN of the Card element;
- The value of the Authentication element (Phone number, email, date of birth, etc.).
All encrypted data will be encoded in Base64.
Symmetric encryption uses the AES algorithm.
The data are encrypted using 256-bit AES in CBC mode (Cipher Block Chaining); more precisely, it uses a Java implementation called javax.crypto.Cipher "AES/CBC/PKCS5Padding".
Upon each encryption operation, an IV (Initialization Vector) set to empty is used.
The encryption and decryption keys are identical.
The AES key is generated by the Issuer.
A different key will be used for each environment.
The exchange of such key whose generation remains at the responsibility of the issuer is not specified in this document.
2.3. XML file for updating the cardholder repository
XML format è equensWorldline provides the Issuer with the .XSD file that makes it possible to generate this format.
The format will be XML in “MAJ” format according to the particularities of equensWorldline.
A different file transfer identifiers have to be defined for acceptance and production.
Description of referential file in a XML format
The structure of file is given by the following figure. The possible values of each field are described in the following tables. The maximum number of cards in a flat file is limited to 999 999 records.
2.4. Description of fields
Each field must respect constraints in order not to be rejected. The following list gives a description of possible format controls:
- AN: Alphanumeric
- A: Alphabetic
- N: Numeric
- H: Hexadecimal
- B64: Base 64
2.4.1. Record « Header »

2.4.2. Structure « Header »
The field FileNumber is incremental and depends on the day when the file is received. So, if this field is valued by 728502, it means that the file is the 2nd file of day 285 of the year 2007. The batch can controls that there does not exist two files with the same identifier and reject it in case of duplication. The batch does not control the field FileNumber.

2.4.4. Structure « CardHolder »
2.4.5. Structure « Card »
2.4.6. Authentication Data
To process the authentication flow, several authentication data can be stored:
- PHONE: the phone number (Deprecated)
- SMS : mobile phone number
- SVI : fix phone number for IVR authentication
- EMAIL: the email address
- SSN: the Social Security Number, person identifier
- PAM: the Personal Assurance Message
- TOKEN: the identifier of the token
- DDN: the birthdate
- PWD: the password
- TA: trusted authentication
HUB phone number must be in international standard E.164 format.
E.164 numbers are formatted [+] [country code] [subscriber number including area code] and can have a maximum of fifteen digits.
2.4.7. Structure « CardData »
Note: CardData is not currently used.
2.4.8. XML message example
Here is an example with:
- A card where all authentication data are replaces with provided ones,
- Another card where only EMAIL authentication data is created/updated,
- And a last one where nothing is created/updated/deleted (since no authentication data is provided)
Here is another example with:
- A card to which we delete the value of a credential,
- A card where all authentication data are replaces with provided ones
2.4.9. File processing report
During the integration process of XML, a log file can be provided by file transfer. This file contains all rejected records with an error label associated to each reject. The file describes a global report of execution of integration and each error is formatted according to the following rules:
- If the reject happens in the section Header:
- Format: Error on Header : Error Label
- Example: Error on Header : Issuer is invalid
- Signification: The issuer code mentioned in the Header has invalid format.
- If the reject happens in the section CardHolder
- Format: Error on CardHolder(identifier): Error Label
- Example: Error on CardHolder(identifier=12345678901234567890123456789012345678) : The length of the identifier must be between 1 and 36
- Signification: The Cardholder with identifier 12345678901234567890123456789012345678 has a field Identifier whose length is too long.
- If the reject happens in the section Card
- Format: Error on CardHolder(identifier) - Card# : Error Label
- Example: Error on CardHolder(identifier=111447612) - Card#1 : PAN is invalid Signification: The PAN of card having the IdElement=1 in section CardHolder having identifier=111447612 is invalid or missing.
2.4.10. Example file log report
2.4.11. Description
For each batch, the report file starts by “start execution date” and “file name” and finishes by “returned code”, “job Id”, “end execution date” and “duration”.
Between the start and the end of execution, we have all reported data errors, as described in previous section. This is followed by a summary of the number of cards treated, and number of found records for each kind of movement.

4. Functional Validation rules
4.1. File reject
If more than 5% of lines are in error the file is rejected with an error code 12 : “Batch KO, number of line errors greater than 5%”.
The blocking errors :
If the header is empty the file is rejected with an error code 40 : "No header specified"
If the header format is invalid the file is rejected with an error code 41 : "Specified header is incorrect"
If the header format is invalid the file is rejected with an error code 18 : "Error read input file xml"
Non-blocking errors threshold:
A skip limit can be defined for the non-blocking exceptions if this limit is reached the file is rejected.
By default the parameter is set to 100%.
Skip limit parameter : ${app-skip-limit}
4.2. Skipped requests
On batch process, the skipped card are corresponding to the specific use case :
- On ACS3 XML format
- Record Card in UpdateMode = CREATE_ONLY but the card is already exist in Data Base, so we can’t create it , so request is skipped
On ACS1 XML or CSV format
- Record Card with ModificationType = RENEWAL but the card doesn’t exist in Data Base, so we can’t renewal it, so request is skipped
- Record Card with ModificationType = DELETION but the card doesn’t exist in Data Base, so we can’t delete it, so request is skipped
- Record Card with ModificationType = REPLACE but the card doesn’t exist in Data Base, so we can’t replace it and retrieve the initial credentials, so request is skipped
Card Referential
The card referential contains card holder information, PAN and credentials.
The master referential can be on ACS side or on bank side.
When the master referential is on ACS side the provisioning can be done by batch or/and an API the Referential WS Server.
When the master referential is on bank side ACS retrieves information by an API the Referential WS Client.

2. Overview
ITA Sec Authentication Hub exposes a unified API for host-to-host communications.
The methods are exposed through a RESTful API built on HTTP and JSON.
As per the REST principles:
- All the methods are accessed by performing an HTTP request to the web service endpoint,
- URL are used to access the data
- HTTP bodies carry the representation of the business objects (elements),
- HTTP verbs are used to indicate the action to perform :
- POST: create a new element for which no identifier is known
- PUT: update an element, or create a resource for which the identifier is known in advance
- GET: retrieve one or more elements
- DELETE: delete an element

All the header parameters contained in JWS Protected Header are protected by the signature.
The data must be signed with the private key (associated with the certificate identified in "x5t#S256") by using the chosen algorithm (specified in “alg” parameter).
Data to sign is the concatenation of protected header encoded in B64 and HTTP Header separated by “.”

5.2. Common headers (for WS Client)
5.3. Common headers (for WS Server)
5.3.1. Common headers request
Accept | |
Description | Header to ensure acceptance of a JSON UTF-8 response compatible with target version of the API |
Mandatory | Yes |
Format | ^application/json; *charset=UTF-8$ |
Example | application/json; charset=UTF-8 |
Content-Type | |
Description | Header that denotes the API version, content type and charset of the response. |
Mandatory | Yes |
Format | ^application/json; *charset=UTF-8$ |
Example | application/json; charset=UTF-8 |
Request-Identifier | |
Description | Unique identifier (UUID) of the request. Field “requestId”. Used to correlate logs between Authentication HUB and the client. Important note : as part of a protection against requests replay providing the same identifier twice within a short time range will result in the server refusing the request |
Mandatory | Yes |
Format | String of 36 characters, standard representation of a UUID ( {time_low}-{time_mid}-{time_high_and_version}-{variant_and_sequence}-{node} ) |
Example | 38400000-8cf0-11bd-b23e-10b96e4ef00e |
Request-Date | |
Description | UTC datetime at which the request has been issued. String of characters complying with the ISO 8601 datetime format |
Mandatory | Yes |
Format | YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss |
Example | 2015-07-02T20:07:59 |
5.3.2. Common headers response
Date | |
Description | Date contains the date and time at which the message was generated |
Mandatory | Yes |
Format | day-name, day month year hour:minute:second GMT |
Example | Fri, 17 Sep 2021 09:34:19 GMT |
Content-Type | |
Description | Header that denotes content type of the response. |
Mandatory | Yes |
Format | application/json |
Example | application/json |
Content-Length | |
Description | Content-Length indicate the size of entity-body in decimal no of octets. |
Mandatory | Yes |
Format | decimal |
Example | 393 |
5.4. Api-Key
A parameter, called “Api-Key” is automatically added in the requests by the HUB Applicative Firewall. This value contains the certificate CN provided by Client during mutual authentication process.
This field must not set or define in the API; it’s an internal field.
5.5. Encryption
Some fields, corresponding to sensitive data, can be either encrypted or plain. In this case, there is a type, a value and a key tag attribute.
When the type is encrypted, the value attribute is a String, before encryption and after being decrypted. The encrypted result is in Hexadecimal format compliant with JSON structure. That’s why this field doesn’t need to be parsed into JSON object.
Only for plain formats, the value needs to be casted to as JSON object. As a result, all the double quotes characters need to be escaped by a backslash, resulting to the following format: "\"PWD\": {\"pwd\":\"@value\"}".
When sensitive fields are encrypted, a “keyTag” value is requested to identify the key used. The “keyTag” value must be defined per field. Same keytag value could be used for all data.
5.5.1. Encryption
Sensitive data will be encrypted with AES256bits (RFC 3565) encryption in CBC or GCM mode with an initial vector either filled with 0 (in case parameter initializationVector is not filled or at “false”) or with the requestId without “-“ character. The data to encrypt will be padded using PKC7 padding.
The encrypted field is always exchanged in Hexadecimal format.

5.6. Response code
5.6.1. HTTP codes
HTTP codes are used as a first level of information as to know whether a request has been properly handled or not. The caller must consider these codes in compliance with the HTTP specification.
HTTP codes used:
Code | Description |
200 | OK (success) |
201 | CREATED (new url) |
202 | ACCEPTED |
204 | No Content (success) |
400 | BAD REQUEST (format error) |
403 | FORBIDDEN (failure) |
404 | NOT FOUND |
500 | INTERNAL SERVER ERROR |
504 | TIMEOUT |
520 | Web server is returning an unknown error |
5.6.2. Error body
Whenever a business management exception occurs, in addition to the HTTP code, an error representation is returned into the body in addition of the nominal content. To ensure confidentiality, only a detailed code is returned (9 digits). This code is to be matched against the dedicated documentation to be interpreted. In the event of an unexpected error, no code is provided. The error content structure is defined below.
Body Attribute | Possible values |
errorCode | 9-digits code |
The body of error message contains additional optional attributes which are only provided in order to facilitate analyzing in case of issue.
