Parameters

Headers

Your API key prefixed with APIKEY. Example: APIKEY your-api-key. See the Authentication guide.

Path Parameters

Response

200 Returns the full request configuration and its current status.
Status
string
The current status of the request. Possible values:
RequestID
string
The unique identifier for this request.
RequestType
string
The type of request: Card for card capture, CVV for CVV-only capture.
CardUri
string
The PCI Booking token URL for the stored card. Only populated when Status is CardStored.
StatusTime
string
Timestamp of the last status change (ISO 8601 format).
OriginCardUri
string
The original token URL. Only present for CVV-only requests (RequestType: CVV).
For CVV-only requests, PCI Booking creates a new token that is a full copy of the original card details plus the captured CVV (returned in CardUri). The original token (OriginCardUri) is not modified and does not contain the CVV. You should delete the original token if it is no longer needed, otherwise it will continue to incur monthly storage fees.
Once Status is CardStored, remember to set the CVV Retention Policy on the token.
