Re: Cardholder Level II data

Hey @ML,

 

Based on the Visa Developer platform pages, Visa does offer APIs that can provide transaction data, including Level II data. You can use the Visa Transaction Controls API or the Payment Account Attributes Inquiry API to retrieve detailed transaction data.

1. Visa Transaction Controls API: This API allows you to manage and control transactions at a detailed level, including retrieving Level II data.

2. Payment Account Attributes Inquiry API: This API provides a wide range of transaction-related data, including attributes that can be considered Level II data.

 

To use these APIs:

1. Register on Visa Developer Platform: Go to the Visa Developer (https://developer.visa.com/) platform and create an account if you haven't already.

 

2. Create a New Project: After logging in, create a new project and select the relevant APIs.

 

3. Obtain Credentials: Once the project is created, you will receive the necessary credentials such as an API key and shared secret.

 

4. Read the API Documentation: Go through the documentation for the selected APIs to understand the endpoints, request and response formats, and authentication methods.

 

5. Set Up Your Environment: Configure your development environment with the necessary libraries and tools to make HTTP requests and handle JSON responses.

 

6. Integrate the API: Write code to call the API endpoints and retrieve the Level II data. Ensure you include the required authentication credentials in your requests.

 

7. Test Your Integration: Use the sandbox environment provided by Visa Developer to test your API integration and verify that you can retrieve the Level II data as required.

 

For detailed information and specific code examples, refer to the Visa Developer API documentation (https://developer.visa.com/).

 




Thanks,
