You need to connect your users through our platform by using our [Connect Flow](https://developer.mastercard.com/open-finance-europe/documentation/unlicensed/aiia-data/connect/connect-flow/index.md). In this section, we describe the scopes you can request and what functionality is enabled by them.

You can request one or more of the scopes listed below in the query parameter `scope` when using the [Connect Flow](https://developer.mastercard.com/open-finance-europe/documentation/unlicensed/aiia-data/connect/connect-flow/index.md).
