x-pay-token validation problem

Hi there!


I am having troubles with the validation of the x-pay-token authentication process:

What I Did:

 

1) Created an app in the developer Dashboard where I Add the "Visa Token Service" API.

 

2) I build an App in C# to test the services, that uses the code in the Official Visa Github repository:
https://github.com/visa/SampleCode/tree/master/vdp-c-sharp
I used the class VisaAPIClient.cs which calculates the x-pay-token and build and send the request.

 

3) With that C# App i Succesfully called the helloworld service:
https://sandbox.api.visa.com/vdp/helloworld

 

4) When i try to call any service from "Visa Token Service" API i always get the error in the response:
{"errorResponse":{"status":401,"message":"Token Validation Failed","reason":"inputValidationError","details":[{"location":"x-pay-token"}]}}

 

5) The x-pay-token calculation and request build message is done by that class Visa Provides in their Sample repository.
Could not be the apiKey or shared secret because the helloworld worked. It is in the data that i am sending?

 

Help) I next show the C#  file from the soultion that I used to test, where is the request body i use, i do not include the sandbox apiKey and shared secret for obvious reason.

 

using System;
using System.Configuration;
using Vdp;

namespace TestService
{
    class Program
    {
        /*
            WARINING: 

            Before you test this App configure the following fields in the "App.config" file:
                - apiKey   
                - sharedSecret
                - visaUrl: I put the one i used, but could be another one?
            

            VisaAPIClient Class is provided by the official Github Visa repository.
        */

        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            try
            {
                string bodyData;
                string baseUri;
                string resourcePath;
                VisaAPIClient visaAPIClient = new VisaAPIClient();


                System.Console.WriteLine("Testing VISA service...");

                bool TEST_HELLOWORLD = false;

                if(TEST_HELLOWORLD == true)
                {
                    //for Helloworld:
                    baseUri = "vdp/";
                    resourcePath = "helloworld";
                    bodyData = "";
                }
                else
                {
                    //For panEnrollments service:  THIS TEST IS FAILING.
                    baseUri = "";
                    resourcePath = "vts/panEnrollments";
                    bodyData =
@"{
    ""clientAppID"": ""98765432"",
    ""clientWalletAccountID"": ""FAmwn"",
    ""consumerEntryMode"": ""KEYENTERED"",
    ""encPaymentInstrument"": ""123456789321654987"",
    ""locale"": ""en_US"",
    ""panSource"": ""MANUALLYENTERED""
}";
                    //@"{""clientAppID"":""98765432"",""clientWalletAccountID"":""FAmwn"",""consumerEntryMode"":""KEYENTERED"",""encPaymentInstrument"":""123456789321654987"",""locale"":""en_US"",""panSource"":""MANUALLYENTERED""}";
                }


                //Do the request:

                string queryString = "apikey=" + ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["apiKey"];
                visaAPIClient.DoXPayTokenCall(baseUri, resourcePath, queryString, "GET", "Test servicecall ", bodyData);

                System.Console.WriteLine("End Test...");
            }
            catch(Exception exc)
            {
                System.Console.WriteLine("Exception: " + exc.Message.ToString());
            }
        }
    }
}

Re: x-pay-token validation problem

Hello,

Few things to note while generating token:

  1. Please follow getting started documentation to generate a valid token.
  2. APIkey in the url query param should be same as the one used to generate xpayToken
  3. “resourcePath” sent in the xpaytoken has to be as per the documentation (eg: for keys à payments/flex/v1/keys).
  4. Payload sent in the request payload should exactly match along with spaces to the “requestBody” value used in xpaytoken.

 

Note:

For Flex Keys resource we have to send xpaytoken

https://sandbox.api.visa.com/cybersource/payments/flex/v1/keys?apikey={apikey}

 

for flex Tokens there will be no xpaytoken

https://sandbox.api.visa.com/cybersource/payments/flex/v1/tokens

 

Try this out and keep me updated!

 

Thanks

Re: x-pay-token validation problem

Than for the help, we finallt make it work, there was two problems:

- The panEnrollments service required POST http method instead GET as we badly used.

 

- The "apiKey" was with "K" upper case, wich is different from the helloworld example wich uses "apikey" with "k" lower case, this API incosistency is cruel, and lead us to the confusion.

 

thanks you!
