Orders

Use Order APIs to manage orders that were processed through FlexFactor.

Orders endpoints

/ordersGET /orders to retrieve the status of a multiple orders at once.
/orders/{id}GET /orders/{id} to retrieve the status on a specific order.
/orders/{id}/refundIssue partial or total refunds for a specific order.
/orders/{id}/cancelCancel a pending order.

General information

The APIs are RESTful, they use HTTP methods (POST, PATCH, PUT, GET) to perform functions on objects.

Some requests include data in their message body, for example to define the attributes of the object being created or updated.


Endpoints

The sandbox is a completely isolated environment, so feel free to experiment. When you're ready to move to production, we will provide you production credentials and give you access to the live environment.

❗️

Real financial data should never be used in the Sandbox.


Headers

To communicate with the Core API, you must include the proper headers in your API requests.

Request headers

You must include the following headers in requests sent to the Core API:

NameDescriptionRequest TypeValue
authorizationAny request must be authenticated.GET, POST, PUTApi key/Token
content-typeThe media type of the resourcePOST, PUTapplication/json

Versioning

The Core API version is indicated in each endpoint resource path.

For example, https://api.flex-charge.com/v1/transmit indicates the API is at version 1.

FlexFactor increments the version number when it releases a new version containing backwards-incompatible changes. Minor updates and bug fixes are typically released without incrementing the version number.

Ensure that your application handles API revisions by allowing for additional, unspecified resource fields in the response and for variable response sizes.


Errors

Use this list to diagnose failed transactions and fine-tune your exception-handling capabilities.

Error codes are based on HTTP response codes: the first three digits specify the HTTP response code, and the last three digits represent the error.
