Authorizations

​
Authorization
string
header
required

API key obtained from the merchant dashboard. When using the 'Try It' feature, enter only the key—the 'Bearer ' prefix is added automatically. For direct API calls, the 'Authorization: Bearer ' format is mandatory.

Headers

​
Idempotency-Key
string<uuid>
required

A unique UUID to prevent duplicate transactions. Retrying a request with the same key will return the previous result.

Example:

"123e4567-e89b-12d3-a456-426614174000"
