Transaction Creation Service

import ApiDoc from '../../../../../src/components/api-doc/ApiDoc';

This call is required to obtain the 3DS Method URL corresponding to the card, besides creating a 3DS Server transaction, which will be used in the following steps of the flow.

Important: The value of the message_version field returned in the response must be used in the CREQ step (for challenge transactions).

Call details

Resource: /v2/authentication
HTTP Method: POST
Request format: JSON
Response format: JSON
Header parameters:

Parameter	Description	Format	Mandatory
`merchant_id`	Merchant code on 3DS Server. The production and certification codes will be different.	< 15 AN	YES
`merchant_key`	Merchant authentication key on 3DS Server. The production and certification keys will be different.	< 80 AN	YES
`Content-Type`	Fixed value `application/json`.	= 15 AN	YES
`Authorization`	Merchant's signature in the `Bearer {signature}` format. Example: `Bearer JHVGytfdgauygdauiw78264284527852897hagdg`.	< 2000 AN	COND.*
`carat_merchant_id`	Carat merchant code must be sent only if the `token` field is sent in the request	< 15 AN	COND.
`carat_merchant_key`	The authentication key of the Carat merchant must be sent only if the `token` field is sent in the request	< 80 AN	COND.

* Note: For security reasons, for transaction authentication to be performed, it is recommended to inform a value for Authorization field.
If the store has registered its public key through the Carat Portal, this field is mandatory.

Available authorizers

ID	Name
`1`	Visa
`2`	Mastercard
`41`	Elo
`3`	Amex

Signature generation

To generate the value to be sent in the Authorization header, it is necessary:

Generate public and private keys
- See the Signature authentication page, section Creating private and public keys.
- Send only the public key to our support team, who will internally associate that key with your store's registration.
Follow the signature generation instructions described on Signature authentication page, section Signature algorithm, except the subsection Second part (payload), which will be different in this case - see more details below.

Payload

It is possible to generate the signature using 2 different payloads:

Payload using card number for this functionality must have the following format:

{
  "merchant_id": "XXXXX",
  "merchant_key": "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX",
  "cartao": "5555555555555555",
  "timestamp": "1620952402824"
}

Payload using token for this functionality must have the following format:

{
  "merchant_id":"XXXXX",
  "merchant_key": "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX",
  "token": "er334gvdgdf5dfgdfg63456363434tre345353rg34tb4576jfgrtu464jj56j56u56u56ghhrthrhrthrth467",
  "timestamp": "1620952402824"
}
