Hello,

Thank you for your inquiry. Can you please let me know if it is currently working again? If it's not, can you please send additional error information for investigation to developer@visa.com?

Please send the response request of the error received, screenshot and the Correlation ID.

I'm seeing the same failure.

Not sure why it returns a 200 for a failure as well. That's not helpful.

Hi @fredzilla,

To further investigate, please provide the following information:

1. End Point
2. Request Header
3. Request Body
4. Response Header (include the x-correlation-id)
5. Response Body

Using SoapUI, you can find the x-correlation-id in the Raw Tab of the response header.
