Last updated: Apr 10th, 2:05pm

Returns from the following API calls:

DoAuthorization

DoCapture

DoReAuthorization

DoVoid

UpdateAuthorization

Cause

The API returns this error if the transaction ID specified in the request is invalid or expired.

This can occur if you are attempting to capture or re-authorize an expired or invalid authorization ID.

1$DoCapture = [
2    'AUTHORIZATIONID' => $authorizationId,
3    'AMT' => '100.00',
4    'CURRENCYCODE' => 'USD'
5];;

Impact

The payment process is halted, preventing the customer from finalizing their purchase. This can lead to a poor customer experience and potentially lost sales if the issue is not resolved promptly.

Resolution

Check transaction ID: Ensure that the transaction ID specified in your API request is valid and not expired.

Review your code: Review your code to ensure the transaction ID is not being changed or modified at any point.

1$DoCapture = [
2    'AUTHORIZATIONID' => $authorizationId,
3    'AMT' => '100.00',
4    'CURRENCYCODE' => 'USD'
5];
