Hello,
I'm getting the following error in my code and in the Payments SKY API (https://developer.sky.blackbaud.com/docs/services/payments/operations/CreateCheckoutTransaction/console)
message: 'Transaction is required.',error_name: 'ChargeTransactionNullArgument',error_code: 14,raw_message: 'Transaction is required.'
What is this Transaction and how do I pass it to my request?
Thank you!
Hi @Mario Almeida
The Charge transaction endpoint is used after a transaction has been authorized and you are ready to finalize (capture) the payment.
Here is a video that walks through step by step how to process a transaction using Blackbaud Checkout in your application, including how the endpoint you reference above is used.
Hello @Mina Mistry
I've watched the video and followed the step by step guide, but I'm still having this error when testing in the endpoint:
And inside my code.
Hello @Mina Mistry,
Now it's working fine! There is just one problem with the request response where the token always return 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000, like shown below. I need the token to make the transaction recurring.
"id": "94042dd3-1aaa-451b-b37b-a5ae052055e1","is_live": false,"phone_number": "","state": "Processed","token": "00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000","transaction_date": "3/15/2023 2:42:34 PM","transaction_type": "CardNotPresent","authorization_code": "123456"
How do I fix this? Thank you!
That's great.
The optional card_token input parameter should be used (i.e. pass in your own GUID) and Checkout will assign the payment method to that token value.
Hello @Mina Mistry !
I did that and now all is well. I'm ready to go to the next step, that is recurring gifts. Thank you very much for your valuable help!
