payment_initiation doesn't work

[mswoff]

It seems like all the code is setup to support the payment_initiation product, but once it's specified as part of PLAID_PRODUCTS, everything breaks and you can't select an institution (They all say connectivity not supported).

I separately tried to add transfer to PLAID_PRODUCTS, and the frontend isn't setup for that.

@mswoff are you sure you're combining payment initiation with a supported configuration? In particular, payment initiation only works in europe/uk, so if you set products to payment_initiation but leave the country code as the default US,CA then you'll get the behavior you're describing because no US or CA institutions support payment initiation.

I'm not sure what you mean by the frontend not being set up for transfer -- there are some endpoints to test transfer calls. Specifically, the way the quickstart works is that initializing with transfer will cause a transfer to automatically be initiated; you can then get its details via calling /transfer/get.

Closing this issue as it seems likely to be user error rather than a bug in the quickstart, but feel free to comment to follow up if this did not resolve the problem.
