Verified usage

Verified import paths — ran on the pinned version, not inferred.

FinTSClient no longer exists; use FinTS3PinTanClient.

from fints.client import FinTS3PinTanClient

Segment is a base class; use FinTS3Segment or other specific segment types.

from fints.segments import FinTS3Segment

Initialize FinTS client and list accounts.

import os from fints.client import FinTS3PinTanClient BLZ = os.environ.get('BLZ', '12345678') USERNAME = os.environ.get('FINTS_USERNAME', 'test') PIN = os.environ.get('FINTS_PIN', '1234') ENDPOINT = os.environ.get('FINTS_ENDPOINT', 'https://banking.test/fints') client = FinTS3PinTanClient(BLZ, USERNAME, PIN, ENDPOINT) accounts = client.get_accounts() for account in accounts: print(account.iban)
Debug
Known footguns
breakingIn v4 -> v5, the package now requires Python >=3.9 and the client class was renamed from FinTSClient to FinTS3PinTanClient. Old code will break.
deprecatedThe old HBCI (non-Pin/TAN) protocol support is being phased out. FinTS3PinTanClient should be used for all new integrations.
gotchaBank endpoints often require a specific product ID (user-agent). The default may be blocked.
gotchaThe client does not automatically handle TAN challenges for some banks. You may need to implement a TAN handler.
