Identity

Identity provides you with all of the accounts the end-user granted your application access authorization along with beneficial owner identity information for each of them. Beneficial owner information is attached to each account as it's possible the end-user is not the beneficial owner, e.g. a corporate account, or there is more than one beneficial owner, e.g. a joint account the end-user shares with their partner.
