Software development kit (SDK)
At the moment there is only one SDK available:
The corresponding examples you can find in the Github Repository as well:
github.com/payrexx/payrexx-php/tree/master/examples
Troubles integrating our API in your programming language?
No problem. Please contact our support team at support.payrexx.com
Request
The payload data has to be one of the following formats:
- JSON (recommended)
- RFC 3986 (http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3986.txt) url encoded and spaces will be percent encoded "%20"
The basic URL to our API is: https://api.payrexx.com/v1.0/:object/:id?instance=:instance
Parameter | Value |
---|---|
object | AuthToken | Invoice | Page | Subscription |
id | Only used for request types GET, PUT and DELETE where only one entity gets modified. |
instance | The Payrexx instance name. If you access your Payrexx payment page with example.payrexx.com, the name would be example |
For POST requests all query parameters except the instance have to be in the body.
Authentication - X-API-KEY (recommended)
Is this important for you?
This part of the documentation is only important if you are not using an SDK.
You can use a simpler authentication method instead of the one mentioned above. Authenticate by passing your API secret in the HTTP header X-API-KEY.
Authentication - API signature
Is this important for you?
This part of the documentation is only important if you are not using an SDK.
The API signature is a HMAC (RFC 2104).
For security reasons we want you to pass an API signature calculated with the API Secret of your instance.
The parameter name of this API signature should be ApiSignature. You can calculate the signature using all params except the param instance.
- Build url encoded query string (e.g. model=Page&id=17)
- Calculate binary hmac hash using your instance's API Secret as key
- Encode it with base64
base64_encode(hash_hmac('sha256', http_build_query($params, null, '&'), $apiSecret, true));
echo -n "HTTP-QUERY-STRING" | openssl dgst -sha256 -hmac "API-SECRET" -binary | openssl enc -base64

Encoding of HTTP-Query String
The query string has to be RFC 1738 encoded, that means you have to replace spaces by "+".
