How to add X-Pay-Token to project?

[acbaile]

Hi!

How to add X-Pay-Token to project? I can not find this item among APIs. In VISA webinar (2016, https://youtu.be/RZ7zlDA89xE) I see following item:

But now (September 2020) I don't see even group "Risk and Fraud" among APIs. So, how can I add X-Pay-Token to my project?

The question is principal: I don't want to use client CSR, because I had a lot of problems with it earlier. Sometimes, certificate is declined, and you can not understand the reason. I prefer avoid using of client's CSRs. API key and secret is more reliable way.

I am in Ukraine. Can it be reason of unavailability?

It seems, I found it. I added CyberSource API. After it, API key and Shared secret appeared on page Credentials.

It looks that X-Pay-Token is a part of CyberSource API now. Am I right?

Hey @acbaile,

Great questions and I'm happy to help. Visa Developer APIs have two types of authentication methods, which are two-way SSL or x-pay-token. When you choose the API to use for your project, and then create the project, you will then have an API that will have either a two-way SSL or x-pay-token authentication method. 

The authentication method for CyberSource Payments is x-pay-token. From the API documentation page, the left side menu has an authentication tab that indicates its method here (refer to screenshot below) - https://developer.visa.com/capabilities/cybersource/docs-authentication

Currently, the only way to query CyberSource Payments sandbox is to create a merchant account directly with CyberSource:
 
https://developer.cybersource.com 

Test their account credentials here: https://developer.cybersource.com/api/reference/api-reference.html 
 
Here's the sample code:  https://github.com/CyberSource/cybersource-rest-samples-java/blob/master/src/main/java/samples/payme... 

Please let us know if you have other questions and someone will be happy to help.

It looks like CyberSource is some third-party software. Is it? Is it safe? Can I make fund transfers with it? Is it part of VISA?

My goal is avoiding of using Two-way SSL, because client's CSRs sometimes are declined, and it can be very difficult to find, understand and eliminate the reason. So, I prefer One-way SSL, when only server is responsible for his certificate. From my point of view, API key is more reliable way.

Can I use API key / Shared Secret with VISA native APIs, not CyberSource only?

Can I use CyberSource solutions simply through VISA dashboard?
