Overview

The Transfers API provides endpoints that you can use to get information about all your transactions, move funds within your balance platform or send funds from your balance platform to a [transfer instrument](https://docs.adyen.com/api-explorer/#/legalentity/latest/post/transferInstruments). ## Authentication Your Adyen contact will provide your API credential and an API key. To connect to the API, add an `X-API-Key` header with the API key as the value, for example: ``` curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -H "X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY" \ ... ``` Alternatively, you can use the username and password to connect to the API using basic authentication. For example: ``` curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -U "[email protected]_BALANCE_PLATFORM":"YOUR_WS_PASSWORD" \ ... ``` ## Roles and permissions To use the Transfers API, you need an additional role for your API credential. Transfers must also be enabled for the source balance account. Your Adyen contact will set up the roles and permissions for you. ## Versioning The Transfers API supports [versioning](https://docs.adyen.com/development-resources/versioning) using a version suffix in the endpoint URL. This suffix has the following format: "vXX", where XX is the version number. For example: ``` https://balanceplatform-api-test.adyen.com/btl/v3/transfers ``` ## Going live When going live, your Adyen contact will provide your API credential for the live environment. You can then use the username and password to send requests to `https://balanceplatform-api-live.adyen.com/btl/v3`.

Transfers API is a payments API from adyen.com. Requests are authenticated with an API key. It is served over HTTPS. Its OpenAPI description documents 3 endpoints.

Adyen Checkout Utility Service

Payments

A web service containing utility functions available for merchants integrating with Checkout APIs. ## Authentication Each request to the Checkout Utility API must be signed with an API key. For this, obtain an API Key from your Customer Area, as described in [How to get the Checkout API key](https://docs.adyen.com/developers/user-management/how-to-get-the-checkout-api-key). Then set this key to the `X-API-Key` header value, for example: ``` curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -H "X-API-Key: Your_Checkout_API_key" \ ... ``` Note that when going live, you need to generate a new API Key to access the [live endpoints](https://docs.adyen.com/developers/api-reference/live-endpoints). ## Versioning Checkout API supports versioning of its endpoints through a version suffix in the endpoint URL. This suffix has the following format: "vXX", where XX is the version number. For example: ``` https://checkout-test.adyen.com/v1/originKeys ```

Rebilly REST API

Payments

# Introduction The Rebilly API is built on HTTP. Our API is RESTful. It has predictable resource URLs. It returns HTTP response codes to indicate errors. It also accepts and returns JSON in the HTTP body. You can use your favorite HTTP/REST library for your programming language to use Rebilly's API, or you can use one of our SDKs (currently available in [PHP](https://github.com/Rebilly/rebilly-php) and [Javascript](https://github.com/Rebilly/rebilly-js-sdk)). We have other APIs that are also available. Every action from our [app](https://app.rebilly.com) is supported by an API which is documented and available for use so that you may automate any workflows necessary. This document contains the most commonly integrated resources. # Authentication When you sign up for an account, you are given your first secret API key. You can generate additional API keys, and delete API keys (as you may need to rotate your keys in the future). You authenticate to the Rebilly API by providing your secret key in the request header. Rebilly offers three forms of authentication: secret key, publishable key, JSON Web Tokens, and public signature key. - [Secret API key](#section/Authentication/SecretApiKey): used for requests made from the server side. Never share these keys. Keep them guarded and secure. - [Publishable API key](#section/Authentication/PublishableApiKey): used for requests from the client side. For now can only be used to create a [Payment Token](#operation/PostToken) and a [File token](#operation/PostFile). - [JWT](#section/Authentication/JWT): short lifetime tokens that can be assigned a specific expiration time. Never share your secret keys. Keep them guarded and secure. <!-- ReDoc-Inject: <security-definitions> --> # Errors Rebilly follow's the error response format proposed in [RFC 7807](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7807) also known as Problem Details for HTTP APIs. As with our normal API responses, your client must be prepared to gracefully handle additional members of the response. ## Forbidden <RedocResponse pointer={"#/components/responses/Forbidden"} /> ## Conflict <RedocResponse pointer={"#/components/responses/Conflict"} /> ## NotFound <RedocResponse pointer={"#/components/responses/NotFound"} /> ## Unauthorized <RedocResponse pointer={"#/components/responses/Unauthorized"} /> ## ValidationError <RedocResponse pointer={"#/components/responses/ValidationError"} /> # SDKs Rebilly offers a Javascript SDK and a PHP SDK to help interact with the API. However, no SDK is required to use the API. Rebilly also offers [FramePay](https://docs.rebilly.com/docs/developer-docs/framepay/), a client-side iFrame-based solution to help create payment tokens while minimizing PCI DSS compliance burdens and maximizing the customizability. [FramePay](https://docs.rebilly.com/docs/developer-docs/framepay/) is interacting with the [payment tokens creation operation](#operation/PostToken). ## Javascript SDK Installation and usage instructions can be found [here](https://docs.rebilly.com/docs/developer-docs/sdks). SDK code examples are included in these docs. ## PHP SDK For all PHP SDK examples provided in these docs you will need to configure the `$client`. You may do it like this: ```php $client = new Rebilly\Client([ 'apiKey' => 'YourApiKeyHere', 'baseUrl' => 'https://api.rebilly.com', ]); ``` # Using filter with collections Rebilly provides collections filtering. You can use `?filter` param on collections to define which records should be shown in the response. Here is filter format description: - Fields and values in filter are separated with `:`: `?filter=firstName:John`. - Sub-fields are separated with `.`: `?filter=billingAddress.country:US`. - Multiple filters are separated with `;`: `?filter=firstName:John;lastName:Doe`. They will be joined with `AND` logic. In this example: `firstName:John` AND `lastName:Doe`. - You can use multiple values using `,` as values separator: `?filter=firstNa

Account API

Payments

This API is used for the classic integration. If you are just starting your implementation, refer to our [new integration guide](https://docs.adyen.com/marketplaces-and-platforms) instead. The Account API provides endpoints for managing account-related entities on your platform. These related entities include account holders, accounts, bank accounts, shareholders, and verification-related documents. The management operations include actions such as creation, retrieval, updating, and deletion of them. For more information, refer to our [documentation](https://docs.adyen.com/marketplaces-and-platforms/classic). ## Authentication Your Adyen contact will provide your API credential and an API key.
