The Clearstream developer surface is built on regulated post-trade messaging rather than a public REST API. Clients connect through ClearstreamXact (Web Portal, File Transfer via SWIFTNet FileAct, and Xact via SWIFT FIN), CASCADE via SWIFT and MQ, the CreationOnline / CreationDirect channels, Vestima for fund order routing, and the CmaX triparty collateral platform. Messages follow ISO 15022 and ISO 20022 standards, with ongoing migration toward ISO 20022 driven by the SWIFT CBPR+ programme. apis: - aid: clearstream:xact-via-swift name: Clearstream Xact via SWIFT tags: - Custody - ISO 15022 - ISO 20022 - Settlement - SWIFT image: https://kinlane-productions2.s3.amazonaws.com/apis-json/apis-json-logo.jpg humanURL: https://www.clearstream.com/clearstream-en/securities-services/connectivity-1-/xact-via-swift--1276378 properties: - url: https://www.clearstream.com/clearstream-en/securities-services/connectivity-1-/xact-via-swift--1276378 type: Documentation - url: https://www.clearstream.com/clearstream-en/securities-services/connectivity-1-/xact-via-swift-user-guides-1289256 type: User Guides - url: https://www.clearstream.com/clearstream-en/securities-services/connectivity-1-/swift-mystandards-1277070 type: SWIFT MyStandards description: >- Xact via SWIFT delivers settlement, custody, asset servicing and reporting messages over the SWIFTNet FIN network.
