❗️

Important Note — Hash Generation

The hash parameter included in the request body is dynamically generated for each request and must not be hardcoded.

The hash value is calculated using specific request parameters combined with your merchant secret key. Any change in the request data requires regenerating the hash before sending the request.

🔗 For detailed steps and the exact formula used to generate the hash, refer to the Hash Generation Section.

🚧

Important Note

You can get the trans_id from Dashboard in the transaction page with name Payment ID. Webhook(callback) response with value of parameter trans_id and also in the Successful Response


Hash Generation (Request Authentication)

To ensure the request is secure, you must generate a hash using the following logic:

Formula

hash = SHA1(MD5(UPPERCASE(gway_Payment_id + merchant_password)))

JavaScript Example (Postman)

var payment_id = "xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxx";
var merchant_pass = "xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-x";
 
//formula:
var to_md5 = payment_id + merchant_pass;
// Use the CryptoJS
 
var hash = CryptoJS.SHA1(CryptoJS.MD5(to_md5.toUpperCase()).toString());
var result = CryptoJS.enc.Hex.stringify(hash);
// Set the new environment variable
postman.setEnvironmentVariable('operation_hash', result);
console.log(hash);
📘

Notes

  • Payment_id → Unique payment identifier returned by the Webhook.
  • Password → Merchant’s backend password (secure, not public).
  • Final output hash must be a lowercase hexadecimal string (e.g., a1b2c3...).
