Follow the steps in Getting started before proceeding. Mambu access: An active account in the Mambu production or sandbox environment. Network connectivity: Verify that your network routes traffic between the Mambu environment and Grand Central iPaaS. For supported options, see Network connectivity. Environment details: You need the following environment details from Mambu to configure the connector:
ParameterDescription
mambu.baseUrlThe API endpoint URL for the Mambu environment
mambu-user-idUsername for Basic Authentication
mambu-passwordPassword for Basic Authentication

Configuration guide

Follow these steps to initialize and authorize your Mambu Connector.

1. Establish connectivity

Share connectivity details between Grand Central and Mambu as described in Network connectivity.

2. Mambu authentication

The Mambu Connector uses Basic Authentication for API access. To configure authentication, create a Secrets Operations (SOPS) secret. For more information, see How to create SOPS.
To share credentials between Mambu and Grand Central, consider using 1Password.

3. Environment configuration

To initialize the Mambu Connector, define the required environment variables in your gc-applications-live repository. These variables are stored in values.yaml for common configuration across all connectors and in the following files for connector-specific configuration:
ConnectorPropertyDescription
gc-mambu-deposit-connectordeposit-v0.values.yamlOutbound deposit connector for deposit account operations
gc-mambu-deposit-transactions-connectordeposit-transactions-v0.values.yamlOutbound deposit transactions connector for transaction operations
gc-mambu-loan-connectorloan-v0.values.yamlOutbound loan connector for loan account operations
gc-mambu-loan-transactions-connectorloan-transactions-v0.values.yamlOutbound loan transactions connector for transaction operations
gc-mambu-payment-connectorpayment-v0.values.yamlOutbound payment connector for payment operations
gc-mambu-party-connectorparty-v0.values.yaml, party-v2.values.yamlOutbound party connector for party management operations

Define common parameters

These variables are stored in values.yaml and are used across all Mambu connectors:
ParameterDescriptionExample value
existingSecretNameReference to SOPS secret containing Mambu credentials.mambu
mambu.baseUrlTarget API endpoint for the Mambu environment.https://yourbank.sandbox.mambu.com/api
The following example shows the values.yaml configuration:
# Common Mambu Configuration
# Place this in: values.yaml
connector:
  existingSecretName: mambu
  properties:
    # Mambu Connection Settings
    # mambu.baseUrl: <Mambu_API_Endpoint>
    
    # Forward mapping: product type → Mambu product ID
    # product.<KIND>.<TYPE>.<CURRENCY>.id: <Mambu_Product_ID>
    
    # Reverse mapping: Mambu product ID → product type
    # <Mambu_Product_ID>: product.<KIND>.<TYPE>.<CURRENCY>.id
  traits:
    knativeservice:
      minScale: 0
    logging:
      level: INFO
      json: true
Product ID mapping pattern:
PatternDescription
product.{KIND}.{TYPE}.{CURRENCY}.idForward mapping: product type to Mambu product ID
{MAMBU_PRODUCT_ID}Reverse mapping: Mambu product ID to product type
The product ID mappings shown above are examples. Configure the complete mappings based on your Mambu tenant’s product configuration. Contact your Mambu administrator to obtain the full list of product IDs.
Place the values files at the following paths:

Testing your integration

To access the Payments Unified API, include your Grand Central subscription key in the request header. If you don’t have a key, contact the Grand Central Support Team to request one.
HeaderValue
api-key<your_subscription_key>
Test the API using the Postman Collection.

Troubleshooting

If your connector isn’t responding as expected, check these common scenarios.
Cause: The Grand Central gateway cannot establish a handshake with the Mambu endpoint. This typically indicates an upstream service outage at Mambu or a network routing failure.Solution: Verify the operational status of the Mambu environment. Check the Mambu status page or contact Mambu support. If the service is operational, contact Grand Central Support.
Cause: The request to Mambu exceeded the configured timeout period. This may indicate performance issues at Mambu or network latency problems.Solution: Verify the operational status of the Mambu environment and check for any performance degradation. If the service is operational and performing normally, contact Grand Central Support.
Cause: The user-id or password provided during setup is incorrect, expired, or the user lacks the required permissions in Mambu.Solution: Re-verify your credentials with your Mambu administrator and ensure the user has the required permissions. Contact the Grand Central team to update the connection credentials if needed.
Cause: The number of incoming requests exceeds the defined threshold for your subscription tier. This “429 Too Many Requests” response protects the stability of the Grand Central and Mambu infrastructure.Solution: Review your app’s request patterns to identify unexpected spikes. If you need higher throughput, contact the Grand Central team to request a higher rate limit.
