The loan book is the training label and the one input no public feed
supplies. Integrating with a lender's core is not a technical unknown —
it is an onboarding process per bank, with a schema agreed in a room.
What can be built before that room is the seam, and this is it.
CoreBankingConnector fetches and returns rows; it never writes. Mapped
rows go to LoanBookEntryService.stage — the same validator an uploaded
spreadsheet goes through, landing in the same manual_entry_batch with
the same preview. A parallel validator for the automated path would be
the obvious shape and would eventually enforce the no-PII rule
differently.
FileDropConnector is real: it reads the newest matching file from a
directory a bank delivers to, and leaves it there so a failed run is
repeatable. Finacle, FLEXCUBE, BaNCS and an in-house REST LMS are
simulated, each emitting the same portfolio in its own column dialect —
DPD_DAYS, OVERDUE_DAYS, DAYS_OVERDUE, daysPastDue — which is what makes
the case for a mapping layer rather than asserting it.
The mapping is {canonical: vendor}, keyed by canonical name, so an
unmapped vendor column has no route through and is dropped at the
boundary. CUST_NAME and MOBILE_NO stay out structurally rather than by
anyone remembering. Auto-commit is off on every profile: a sync stages
and stops, keeping the rule that nothing is written until someone has
seen what will be. simulated is stamped per run, not read from the
profile, so switching a profile live cannot make old runs look real.
Fixes a real defect this surfaced: FORBIDDEN_COLUMNS matched on the
exact normalised name, so CUST_NAME — what Finacle actually calls it —
was missed, and a directly uploaded bank file would have kept the
borrower's name in manual_entry_line.raw_row. Matching now splits
separators and camelCase, catching borrowerMobile too, while
loan_account_ref still splits clean.
Verified against a running instance: Finacle 44/44 accepted with 4
columns dropped, the file drop 2 accepted and 1 UNKNOWN_ENTERPRISE
rejected from a real CSV, and both CUST_NAME and borrowerMobile refused
at mapping save.

UdyamLinc — API Specification
Base URL: http://localhost:8082/api/v1/udyam
Every response uses one envelope. The UI's api.ts unwraps .data, so the shape is stable across every endpoint.
{ "success": true, "message": "OK", "data": { } }
A failure keeps the envelope and nulls the payload:
{ "success": false, "message": "No enterprise MSME-1409", "data": null }
1. Authentication and tiers
Three surfaces, three institutional tiers. They are not ranks of one permission — an apex user cannot reach a bank endpoint, and a bank user cannot reach an apex one. Both get 403.
| Scope | Who | May read |
|---|---|---|
NABARD |
the apex institution | aggregates across every partner bank; no borrower row at all |
BANK |
a lending institution | its own book in full, optionally narrowed to a branch |
ENTERPRISE |
a borrower | itself |
The tenancy rule
The institution is a signed claim in the JWT. It is never read from a path variable, query parameter or request body. A tenancy key the caller can type is not a tenancy key.
TenantContext is resolved once per request from the token and injected into handlers as an ordinary argument, so an endpoint that needs scoping cannot forget to ask for it. The filter fails closed: a caller with no institution sees nothing, not everything.
Narrowing parameters that select a view — level, zone, state, block — do come from the request, because they grant nothing. An apex user may read every zone, so naming one changes only what is displayed.
Cross-tenant reads return 404, not 403
Requesting a borrower on another bank's book returns exactly what a fabricated id returns:
GET /officer/enterprises/MSME-1409 as dccb.admin (owner) → 200
GET /officer/enterprises/MSME-1409 as mpgb.admin (other) → 404
{"success":false,"message":"No enterprise MSME-1409","data":null}
A distinguishable 403 would confirm the id is real and on somebody's book — enough to enumerate a competitor's portfolio without reading a single field.
Endpoints
| Method | Path | Notes |
|---|---|---|
POST |
/auth/officer-login |
Both staff tiers. Issues an apex or bank token depending on the user's institution. |
POST |
/auth/app-login |
Enterprise PWA. { enterpriseId, pin }. |
GET |
/auth/health |
{ status: "UP", service: "udyamlinc-backend" } |
Known defect.
SecurityConfigwhitelists/health, but no handler is mapped there — it returns500. The working probe is/auth/health. Worth fixing before any container health check points at it.
2. /nabard/** — the apex surface
Requires SCOPE_NABARD. Not one endpoint here returns an enterprise id, a borrower name, or any row joinable back to a person. That is verified rather than asserted: a check across all six read endpoints returns zero MSME- identifiers.
Small-cell suppression. Any cell with fewer than udyam.apex.min-cell-size (default 5) borrowers is returned with suppressed: true and no figures. A district with two borrowers and one alert discloses that borrower as surely as naming them. Suppressed rows are returned, not omitted — a missing district reads as "no activity", a different and wrong claim.
| Method | Path | Returns |
|---|---|---|
GET |
/nabard/dashboard |
national totals, stress rate, portfolio value, open alerts, minCellSize, dataAgeDays |
GET |
/nabard/banks |
partner-bank scorecard |
GET |
/nabard/banks/{code}/branches |
one bank by branch — the deepest this tier goes |
GET |
/nabard/geography?level=&zone=&state= |
level = ZONE | STATE | DISTRICT |
GET |
/nabard/districts |
stress by district |
GET |
/nabard/sectors |
stress by sector |
GET |
/nabard/digest |
districts, sectors and slowest-responding banks |
GET |
/nabard/institutions |
the institution and branch register |
Response rate on the scorecard is the share of raised alerts a bank has acted on. Stress rate is largely a fact about a bank's districts and sectors; response rate is a fact about the bank, and it is the number no bank self-reports.
3. /officer/** — the bank console
Requires SCOPE_BANK. Every response is filtered to the caller's institution, and to their branch when they are branch-scoped.
| Method | Path | Notes |
|---|---|---|
GET |
/officer/portfolio?block=&month= |
counts plus rows |
GET |
/officer/enterprises?block= |
ranked by stress score |
GET |
/officer/enterprises/{enterpriseId} |
score, reasons, forecast, alerts, visits, recent ledger |
GET |
/officer/alerts?block=&state= |
scoped through visible borrowers |
PUT |
/officer/alerts/{alertId} |
OPEN | ACKNOWLEDGED | ESCALATED | SNOOZED | CLOSED; re-checks tenancy |
GET |
/officer/visits?block= |
|
POST |
/officer/visits |
schedule from the playbook |
PUT |
/officer/visits/{visitId}/outcome |
|
GET |
/officer/playbook |
intervention catalogue |
GET |
/officer/sectors?block= |
sector rollup |
GET |
/forecast/{enterpriseId} |
stored quantile path, first breach, shortfall |
GET |
/forecast/runs |
4. /admin/** — configuration and operations
GET is open to any console tier. Writes require ROLE_SUPERVISOR, ROLE_BANK_ADMIN or ROLE_DATA_STEWARD.
Ingestion
| Method | Path | Notes |
|---|---|---|
POST |
/admin/ingestion/run |
all sources |
POST |
/admin/ingestion/run/{source} |
AGMARKNET | OPEN_METEO |
GET |
/admin/ingestion/runs?source=&limit= |
every outcome, including a skip |
GET |
/admin/ingestion/calls |
outbound call log; the API key is redacted |
GET |
/admin/ingestion/signals/market?weeks= |
carries source: AGMARKNET or MANUAL |
GET |
/admin/ingestion/signals/climate?weeks= |
|
GET |
/admin/ingestion/freshness |
per-district staleness — what a trip-wire checks first |
Features
| Method | Path | Notes |
|---|---|---|
POST |
/admin/features/compute |
whole book |
POST |
/admin/features/compute/{enterpriseId} |
|
GET |
/admin/features/definitions |
catalogue with staleness tolerances |
GET |
/admin/features/snapshot/{enterpriseId} |
wide row |
GET |
/admin/features/values/{enterpriseId} |
tall rows including nulls and their reasons |
GET |
/admin/features/coverage |
populated share per feature |
A feature that cannot be computed is stored as null with a reason — NO_SIGNAL, NO_LEDGER, NO_CBS, NO_CONSENT, NO_FORECAST, INSUFFICIENT_HISTORY. "We did not know" and "we never looked" are different facts.
Scoring and rules
| Method | Path | Notes |
|---|---|---|
POST |
/admin/scoring/run |
whole book |
POST |
/admin/scoring/run/{enterpriseId} |
|
GET |
/admin/scoring/runs |
|
GET |
/admin/scoring/explain/{enterpriseId} |
every rule's outcome, no writes |
GET POST PUT DELETE |
/admin/rules, /admin/rules/{code} |
trip-wire CRUD; version bumps on edit |
PUT |
/admin/sectors/{code}/weights |
sub-score weights in basis points |
GET |
/admin/sectors, /admin/districts, /admin/commodities |
masters |
explain returns one row per rule with a status that distinguishes the cases that matter:
TW-01 FIRED DSCR(P10) < 1.00
TW-02 SKIPPED_MISSING upi_inflow_change (NO_CONSENT)
TW-03 NOT_FIRED no entry ≥ 14 days
TW-05 SKIPPED_MISSING price_z_score (INSUFFICIENT_HISTORY)
NOT_FIRED means the enterprise is fine. SKIPPED_STALE and SKIPPED_MISSING mean the rule could not run. These must never look the same.
Manual and bulk entry
For the feeds no API serves — egg, milk, fodder — and the loan book.
| Method | Path | Notes |
|---|---|---|
GET |
/admin/manual/template/market |
CSV template |
GET |
/admin/manual/template/loans |
CSV template |
POST |
/admin/manual/upload?type= |
multipart; MARKET_SIGNAL | LOAN_RECORD. Stages a preview and writes nothing. |
POST |
/admin/manual/{batchId}/commit |
only a PREVIEW batch may commit |
DELETE |
/admin/manual/{batchId} |
discard |
POST |
/admin/manual/entry |
one row, validated and committed |
GET |
/admin/manual/batches, /admin/manual/batches/{id} |
audit trail |
An upload returns accepted, rejected, overwriting and warnings as separate lists. Merging them hides the only two questions the person clicking Commit has: what will not land, and what will land on top of something already there. An overwriting row carries priorModalPrice.
Effective dating. effective_date is the date the fact describes and comes from the file. observedAt is when we learned it and is stamped at commit — the uploader cannot reach it. A March rate uploaded in August must stay invisible to a March scoring run, or the model trains on data that did not exist yet.
Rejection reasons. UNKNOWN_DISTRICT, UNKNOWN_COMMODITY, UNKNOWN_ENTERPRISE, FUTURE_DATE, BAD_DATE, BAD_NUMBER, UNIT_MISMATCH, PRICE_ORDER, DUPLICATE_IN_FILE, MISSING_REQUIRED, IDENTIFYING_COLUMN.
A price far from last week's warns and is accepted — a genuine price shock is the event this system exists to catch, and rejecting it would be backwards.
The loan book carries no borrower identity. A file whose headers include a name, phone, Aadhaar, PAN, account number or address is refused whole, with the offending columns named. Dropping the column quietly would let a bank believe it had sent something we promised to keep and had not.
A header matches on the whole normalised name and on each part, splitting separators and camelCase alike — a real core ships CUST_NAME and an in-house LMS ships borrowerMobile, neither of which an exact-match list catches. loan_account_ref splits to loan/account/ref and stays clean, which is why this is part-matching and not substring-matching.
Core banking / LMS integration
The loan book is the one input no public feed supplies, and no two lenders expose it the same way. What exists is the seam, not an integration: an adapter per transport, a mapping per bank, and one validator — mapped rows are handed to the same LoanBookEntryService.stage an uploaded spreadsheet goes through, and land in the same manual_entry_batch with the same preview.
| Method | Path | Notes |
|---|---|---|
GET |
/admin/connectors/catalog |
every adapter, its dialect, and simulated |
GET |
/admin/connectors/canonical-columns |
the template a mapping targets, plus what may never be mapped in |
GET |
/admin/connectors/profiles, /admin/connectors/profiles/{code} |
configured links |
POST |
/admin/connectors/profiles |
onboard a lender |
PUT |
/admin/connectors/profiles/{code} |
mapping and settings; an invalid mapping is refused here, not at the next nightly run |
POST |
/admin/connectors/profiles/{code}/test |
reaches the source and shows the columns. Stages nothing. |
POST |
/admin/connectors/profiles/{code}/sync |
pulls and stages; writes only if the profile has autoCommit |
GET |
/admin/connectors/runs |
every attempt, successful or not |
GET |
/admin/connectors/runs/{runId}/preview |
the staged batch behind a run |
One adapter is real. FILE_DROP reads an actual extract from a directory a bank delivers to (udyam.connector.file-drop.dir, default ./data/cbs-drop), newest file matching the profile's glob, left where it was found so a failed run is repeatable. FINACLE, FLEXCUBE, BANCS and CUSTOM_API are simulated: they generate an extract in each core's own column dialect so the mapping layer is exercisable end to end. simulated is stamped per run, not read from the profile — switching a profile to a live adapter must not retroactively make its old runs look real.
The mapping is {canonical_column: vendor_column}, and the direction matters. Keyed by the canonical name, so a vendor column nobody mapped has no route through: unmapped columns are dropped at the boundary and counted on the run. That is how CUST_NAME and MOBILE_NO stay out of a system that promised not to hold them — structurally, rather than by anyone remembering.
Auto-commit is off by default. A sync stages and stops, preserving the manual path's rule that nothing is written until someone has seen what will be. A bank that wants the nightly feed unattended turns it on per profile, knowingly.
A failed run is still a run. Nothing to read is SUCCESS with a message, not FAILED — a bank that has not delivered tonight's file is a normal state, and conflating it with a broken connector trains everyone to ignore the status.
5. /app/** — the enterprise PWA
Requires SCOPE_ENTERPRISE, pinned to one enterprise id.
| Method | Path | Notes |
|---|---|---|
GET |
/app/home |
|
GET |
/app/ledger |
|
POST |
/app/ledger/sync |
offline queue; clientId is generated on the phone so an offline entry keeps identity through sync |
GET |
/app/alerts |
|
PUT |
/app/consent |
6. External feeds
Never called in a request path. A nightly job writes signals; the API serves only what is already in Postgres.
| Feed | Source | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Mandi prices | data.gov.in resource 35985678-0d79-46b4-9ed6-6f13308a1d24 |
filters are State/District/Commodity, capitalised and exact; sort[Arrival_Date]=desc is required |
| Rainfall, temperature | Open-Meteo archive | no key; meters by request cost, so a rate-limited call retries with backoff |
| Egg, milk, fodder | no usable API | manual entry |
| Loan book | CBS/LMS extract | connector seam built; one real adapter (file drop), four simulated dialects. Manual upload remains the fallback |
