Step 3: Redirect to CSOB for Strong Customer Authentication (SCA) and standing order authorization.
In redirect link, there must be Order ID obtained in Step 2. SCA and standing order authorization is realized by client in bank environment using credentials issued by the bank (see section API Authorization/SCA). After this procedure, client is redirected back to third party application. In redirect link, there is an authorization code, which must be used in next step.

Step 4: Exchange authorization code for access token
Initiate POST request for Authorization code with a code obtained in Step 3. For details see Authorization API/Authorization code section. In response, there is an access token, which is binded to specific request and must be used in next step to submit the standing order.

Step 5: Submit authorized standing order.
Initiate POST request for Standard payment submission with valid access token obtained in Step 4. For Details see Payment initiation API (PISP) / Standard payment submission section.
