--header 'Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded' \
--data-urlencode 'action=GET_TRANS_DETAILS' \

--data-urlencode 'trans_id=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX' \
--data-urlencode 'hash=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX'Request Parameters
| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| action | string | Yes | API action type. For status checking, this must be GET_TRANS_DETAILS. |
| client_key | string | Yes | Your EdfaPay merchant identifier (UUID format). |
| trans_id | string | Yes | Unique transaction ID from EdfaPay. |

Important NoteYou can get the trans_id from

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.
Hash Generation (Request Authentication)
To ensure the request is secure, you must generate a hash using the following logic:
Formula
hash = MD5(UPPERCASE(Reverse(email) + password + trans_id + Reverse(cardBIN + cardLast4)))JavaScript Example (Postman)
var password = "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX";
var payment_id = "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX";
var card_number="XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"
var email = "[email protected]"
const ReverseString = str => [...str].reverse().join('');
let reversedEmail = ReverseString(email);
let reversedCard = ReverseString(card_number.substr(0, 6) + card_number.substr(-4));
let result = (reversedEmail + PASSWORD + trans_id + reversedCard).toUpperCase();
let finalResult = CryptoJS.MD5(result).toString()
postman.setEnvironmentVariable('operation_hash', finalResult);
Notes
- Reverse() → A function that reverses the input string.
- email → Customer’s email used during the SALE request.
- password → Merchant’s backend password (secure, not public).
- trans_id → Unique transaction ID returned in SALE response.
- cardBIN → First 6 digits of the card number.
- cardLast4 → Last 4 digits of the card number.
- Final output hash must be a lowercase hexadecimal string (e.g., a1b2c3...).
