Check status by reference

You can check the status of a request with your provided reference using this API.

Description

• Method: This is a GET request, indicating that data is being sent to the server.
• URL: The URL for this request is https://uat-businessapi.spenn.com/api/Partner/transaction/request/{externalReference}/status
• HTTPS Version: The request is made using HTTPS.

Headers

• Content-Type: The Content-Type header is set to application/json, indicating that the request body contains JSON data.
• Authorization: The Authorization header is used with a bearer token for authentication. The actual token value should replace the placeholder Bearer eyJhbG...NrEQ41w.

NB:

[ExternalReference] This is a unique id you generated when making payment requests.

Sample Request:

Python

import requests

base_url = "https://uat-businessapi.spenn.com/api/Partner/transaction/request/{externalReference}/status"
headers = {
    "Content-Type": "application/json",
    "Authorization": "Bearer eyJhbG...NrEQ41w"
}

request_id = "1e6cc63a-2d0d-4885-9c51-f9a35f113811"

# Format the URL with the dynamic requestId
url = base_url.format(requestId=request_id)

payload = {
    "requestMoneyGuid": request_id
}

# Make the GET request
response = requests.get(url, headers=headers, json=payload)

# Check the response status
if response.status_code == 200:
    # Successful response
    print("Request was successful. Response JSON:")
    print(response.json())
else:
    # Handle the error
    print(f"Error: {response.status_code}\n{response.text}")
