API Validation Error

[mchouaha]

Hello everyone,

I am new to Visa Direct API and I am having an server issue when I make a call to this end-point:

https://sandbox.api.visa.com/visadirect/fundstransfer/v1/pushfundstransactions

The server responded with this error:

{

"errorMessage": "API Validation Error: 3001. Mandatory field 'localTransactionDateTime' is missing or has invalid content."

}

The same error can be found on this request sample from the visa developer page: Funds Transfer API 

The request body is: 

As you can see, localTransactionDateTime is the right date-time format

"localTransactionDateTime": "2019-08-21T12:15:39",

The request header is:

Furthermore, I was able to test the connectivity of the Visa Direct server by calling:

https://sandbox.api.visa.com/vdp/helloworld

 and the server response was succesful.

I have seen other people having the same issue but I do not know how to resolve this issue ?
API Validation Error:3001. Mandatory field 'DateAndTimeLocalTransaction' is missing/invalid content  

I heard that the X-transaction-ID has be to added to the header but I do not know how to find this variable.

Can someone help please ?

If you need more info, please let me know.

Thank You for Any Help You May Provide.

Problem solved !

The issue was the date format which was wrong.
I was using a past date:
2019-08-21T12:15:39

Instead I used today date and it works fine 😉
2023-08-04T12:15:39

Today date is 4 Aug 2023.

Thanks. Problem solved.
