Transaction: Clone Transaction

See also the Transaction response object.

Cloning a transaction will create a new transaction by copying all the attributes, except amount, of the original transaction. Instead of cloning transactions, a better practice in most cases is to use the Vault to save and reuse payment method or customer information.

  1. Python
result = gateway.transaction.clone_transaction("transaction_id", {
    "amount": "10.00",
    "options": {
        "submit_for_settlement": True
    }
})
If the transaction can't be found, it will throw a NotFoundError exception.
Arguments
transaction_idrequired, str
The unique transaction identifier. You can only clone non-PayPal transactions that have a status of authorized, authorization_expired, voided, submitted_for_settlement, or settled. Processor declined, gateway rejected, and failed transactions can't be cloned.
;
Additional Parameters
'amount'Decimal
The amount of the cloned transaction. This value must be greater than 0, and must match the appropriate currency format.
'options'
Values passed with a request.
'submit_for_settlement'bool
Whether to submit the transaction for settlement once authorization succeeds.
