Commonwealth Bank
Commonwealth Bank of Australia (CBA) is Australia's largest bank by market capitalization, a "Big Four" authorised deposit-taking institution (ADI) regulated by APRA and listed on the ASX (CBA), providing retail, business, and institutional banking. CBA serves millions of customers through NetBank online banking, the CommBank mobile app, CommBiz for business, and CommBank Yello loyalty. As a designated data holder under Australia's Consumer Data Right (CDR / Open Banking) regime, CommBank exposes a PUBLIC, unauthenticated Product Reference Data (PRD) API and a full set of consumer-AUTHORIZED CDR Banking endpoints (accounts, balances, transactions, direct debits, scheduled payments, payees, customer) conforming to the DSB Consumer Data Standards CDR Banking API v1.36.0. The bank publishes its own first-party Swagger 2.0 specifications for each of these families on its developer portal, and additionally documents a business API catalogue (Fast Payment / NPP credit transfer initiation, NameCheck, PayTo) and a hosted merchant Payment Gateway.
Real signal across most facets with visible, nameable gaps — the contract exists but is thin, or the portal is good while governance and commercial terms are absent.
API Evangelist profiles Commonwealth Bank the way a machine reads it — 65 machine-readable artifacts across 8 APIs, pulled from the provider's own public surface and indexed so a developer, an analyst, or an AI agent can evaluate it against every other provider on the network.
Every provider in the network is reduced to the same set of machine-readable artifacts — OpenAPI contracts, event specifications, GraphQL schemas, runnable collections, pricing and rate-limit signals, security posture, OAuth scopes, and the agent surfaces (MCP servers and skills) that let software drive the API on its own. We profile them because the interface is the part of a company you can actually inspect: it is a truer signal of what a provider does than any marketing page. From those artifacts we compute the Kin Score — Commonwealth Bank scores 41.9/100 (developing), with a separate agent-readiness read of 29/100 (agent ready). The full breakdown is below, followed by every artifact we hold — each card links through to its machine-readable definition on apis.io.
Kin Score
This is the API Evangelist rating — a single, repeatable read computed from the artifacts on this page. Green fill is points earned; the red track is points possible, so every bar shows earned-versus-possible at a glance. Every facet and dimension name is a link: it opens that measurement's page on APIs.io, where the rating runs across the whole catalog — the exact checks that feed it, how every profiled provider distributes on it, and who is at the top of it.

How we profile Commonwealth Bank
Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for Commonwealth Bank. For each we say what it is and why it earns a place in the profile, then list every one we've indexed — capped at two rows, scroll within the panel for the rest.
APIs 25
Each API is captured as its own OpenAPI definition — every operation, parameter, and response. This is the single most useful machine-readable description of what an API does, and it's what lets us score, lint, mock, and generate against it without asking the provider for anything.

OAuth scopes are the vocabulary of least-privilege access. Profiling them shows exactly what an integration — or an agent acting on a user's behalf — is allowed to do.
OAuth scopes governing access to this provider's APIs.
Agentic Access 1
An x-agentic-access contract marks which operations are safe for an agent to run on its own and which need a human in the loop. It is the difference between an API an agent can use and one it can use safely.

This is an independent, third-party profile of Commonwealth Bank, published by API Evangelist. We do not operate, host, resell, or support these APIs, and we are not affiliated with or endorsed by the company unless stated above. Everything here is built from publicly available information — the company's own site, developer portal, documentation, public repositories, and the specifications it publishes for public use. Nothing is obtained by breaching a system, defeating an access control, or using credentials.
The Kin Score and Agent Readiness rating are independently calculated assessments of a company's public API artifacts, scored against a published rubric. They are not certifications, endorsements, security assessments, or audits.
Corrections, re-scores, and removal are free — no partnership or purchase required, and you do not need to justify the request. A removed company is recorded as unrated, never scored zero for having asked. Acknowledgement within one business day; removal within two.
