Make yourself familiar with our API Principles to ensure a resilient integration.
Setting your headers is an important part of an API request. The headers represent the meta-data associated with your API request.
Authorization: {your_credentials}
Content-Type: application/vnd.worldpay.accounts.transfers-v1+json
Accept: application/vnd.worldpay.accounts.transfers-v1+json| Header | Description |
|---|---|
WP-CallerId and/or X-WP-Diagnostics-CorrelationId | ID of the consumer. This value is optional and provided by you. It should be unique per each consumer. If both WP-CallerId and X-WP-Diagnostics-CallerId are included in the request, then WP-CallerId is used. If not provided, it is generated, since it is required for traceability. |
WP-CorrelationId and/or X-WP-Diagnostics-CorrelationId | ID of the request which may be used between you, the API and downstream services. If both WP-CorrelationId and X-WP-Diagnostics-CorrelationId are included in the request, then we use WP-CorrelationId. If not set in either WP-CorrelationId nor X-WP-Diagnostics-CorrelationId, a new correlationId is generated, since the correlationId is required for traceability. |
Authorization | We use the Authorization header to identify and authenticate you within Access Worldpay. You must use the Authorization header for any request you send to our Account APIs. |
Content-Type | We require the Content-Type header if the request you're sending includes a request body, and if the HTTP method is a POST or a PUT. |
Accept | We use the Accept header to identify which version of our API you are using. You must use the Accept header for any request you send to our Account APIs. |
If you're using both the Content-Type and Accept headers, they must match.
Note
Replace {your_credentials} with your base64-encoded Basic Auth username and password. To get your Access Worldpay credentials contact your Implementation Manager.
Whitelist the following URLs:
https://try.access.worldpay.com/https://access.worldpay.com/
Please ensure you use DNS whitelisting not explicit IP whitelisting.
Note
When you make a request within Access Worldpay, you should always cache the response returned.
