🔙Postback

Communication takes place with the help of postback requests (postbacks). After each Client request for input or output, a postback is sent to the Client with the result of the operation.

Receiving the postback

To accept postbacks, you need to implement a separate path that you can use to receive postbacks. They are sent via a POST request in JSON format.

The A-pay server is waiting for a response in json

{ 
"status": "OK" 
}

Response code 200, otherwise, when receiving a different response, A-pay will forward the postback with a certain frequency.

Deposit

Client-side signature generation

When sending webhooks, A-Pay also sends a signature: a specifically generated hash string that is created using a private key.

The signature itself is calculated as follows:

$signature = sha1($access_key . $private_key . md5($transactions->toJson(JSON_UNESCAPED_SLASHES | JSON_UNESCAPED_UNICODE)));

a string of three parameters is passed to the sha1 function:

Parameter	Description
$access_key	The public key is specified in the settings of the A-Pay technical support personal account
$private_key	The private key is specified in the settings of the A-Pay technical support personal account
md5(...)	Hash from the MD5 function of the entire array of transactions in JSON format

As a result of executing this code, a string is obtained that cannot be faked without having a private key that is not passed in webhooks.

The client can compare the generated signature with the received signature from the webhook and thereby make sure that the data that came was actually sent and not faked by a scammer.

Postback of transactions for deposit

Request body schema:

Name	Type	Description
access_key	string	The access key is specified in the settings of the A-Pay technical support personal account
signature	string	The signature was used to verify the validity of the postback. Concept of generation in the description of the deposit webhook
transactions	Array of objects below	Information about the deposits made (one or more) is passed

List of transactions:

order_id	string	Deposit ID in the A-Pay system
status	string	Enum: "Success" "Failed" "Rejected" Deposit status, if the deposit was successful, the status will be Success
amount	number >= 0	Deposit amount
currency	string [ 3 .. 3 ]	Currency name
payment_system	string	Enum: "upi_fast", "upi_fast_v", "upi_p2p", "upi_a", "upi_fast_qr", "bankalfalah", "bkash_a", "apaybdt", "upay", "mpesa", "phonepe", "nagad_api_v", "payme", "paytm", "easypaisa" The payment system from which the deposit was made
custom_transaction_id	string	Transaction ID in the client's system
custom_user_id	string	User ID in the client's system
created_at	integer	Deposit creation time, in timestamp UTC format
activated_at	integer	Deposit activation date, in timestamp UTC format

Example of a postback sent by a POST request in JSON format:

{
  "access_key": "mrOYReXJphqo7lkL",
  "signature": "dfsfrwe3344d",
  "transactions": [
    {
      "order_id": "7fa13dbc3b79e05e",
      "status": "Success",
      "amount": 6008.39,
      "currency": "INR",
      "payment_system": "mpesa",
      "custom_transaction_id": "string",
      "custom_user_id": "string",
      "created_at": 1665731710,
      "activated_at": 1665731710
    }
  ]
}

Responses:

If {"status":"OK"} was passed, we consider the webhook successfully delivered.

Example of a response:

{
    "status": "OK"
}

}

Responses:

If {"status":"OK"} was passed, we consider the webhook successfully delivered.

Example of a response:

{
    "status": "OK"
}

Expected responses to postbacks from a client:

Сode	Message
200	Ok
400	error receiving
401	error validation
404	not found http exception
500	not enough fields
501	empty postback
502	incorrect signature
503	data integrity error

• If successful, expect the client to have http status - 2XX.

• All 200th codes should be accompanied by "status" = "ok"

• In case of failure, expect from the client http status other than 2XX (depending on the error) and an error message. For example, "error validation" or "not enough fields".
