Create a Scheme Identifier

POST {{url}}/scheme_identifiers

Creates a new scheme identifier. The scheme identifier must be applied to a creditor before payments are taken using it. The scheme identifier must also have the status of active before it can be used. For some schemes e.g. faster_payments this will happen instantly. For other schemes e.g. bacs this can take several days.

Relative endpoint: POST /scheme_identifiers
