| Summary | 0010568: Contradictory and confusing docs for GET [/instances/$INSTANCE]/orders/$ORDER_ID | ||||
| Description | Several issues with the documentation for "Querying payment status" https://docs.taler.net/core/api-merchant.html#querying-payment-status 1. "This endpoint is for the wallet" — but the note in "Creating orders" linke here and thus implies that e.g. web-shops shall use this end-point, too, for querying the status. - What is the endpoint web-shops and ERPs shall use to query the status? - Maybe the note in "Ctreating orders" needs to point to the "private" endpoint? 2. "StatusUnpaidResponse … // Status URL, can be used as a redirect target for the browser // to show the order QR code / trigger the wallet. fulfillment_url?: string;" Well, the wallet is already open, as this is what queries this endpoint, isn't it? And "fulfillment" is not "status" | ||||
| Tags | No tags attached. | ||||
| 09f3e157..b53697f7 clarifies that both GET /orders/$ID and GET /private/orders/$ID can be used to get the order URL --- and that the public endpoint may also be used by non-wallets, basically any client that cannot authenticate must use it. | |
| b53697f7..fa1e3e5c improves the description of the fulfillment_url. | |
