Basic Customer - email only
This guide walks through the basic setup of a customer.
Create a Customer
POST
https://testapi.payarc.net/v1/customers
For this guide, we will create a basic customer profile containing only an email
, [email protected].
import http.client
conn = http.client.HTTPSConnection("https")
payload = 'email=customer%40xyz.com'
headers = {
'Authorization': 'Bearer {{Access-Token-From-Payarc-Dashboard}}',
'Accept': 'application/json',
'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded'
}
conn.request("POST", "//testapi.payarc.net/v1/customers", payload, headers)
res = conn.getresponse()
data = res.read()
print(data.decode("utf-8"))
var https = require('follow-redirects').https;
var fs = require('fs');
var qs = require('querystring');
var options = {
'method': 'POST',
'hostname': 'https',
'path': '//testapi.payarc.net/v1/customers',
'headers': {
'Authorization': '{{bearer_token}}',
'Accept': 'application/json',
'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded'
},
'maxRedirects': 20
};
var req = https.request(options, function (res) {
var chunks = [];
res.on("data", function (chunk) {
chunks.push(chunk);
});
res.on("end", function (chunk) {
var body = Buffer.concat(chunks);
console.log(body.toString());
});
res.on("error", function (error) {
console.error(error);
});
});
var postData = qs.stringify({
'email': '[email protected]'
});
req.write(postData);
req.end();
var client = new HttpClient();
var request = new HttpRequestMessage(HttpMethod.Post, "https://testapi.payarc.net/v1/customers");
request.Headers.Add("Authorization", "{{bearer_token}}");
request.Headers.Add("Accept", "application/json");
var collection = new List<KeyValuePair<string, string>>();
collection.Add(new("email", "[email protected]"));
var content = new FormUrlEncodedContent(collection);
request.Content = content;
var response = await client.SendAsync(request);
response.EnsureSuccessStatusCode();
Console.WriteLine(await response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync());
The response will return a new Customer object. For the next steps, you will need the newly generated customer ID KPxMADVnxMV4nNjp
:
{
"data": {
"object": "customer",
"id": "KPxMADVnxMV4nNjp",
"name": null,
"real_id": 110,
"email": "[email protected]",
"description": null,
"payment_overdue": null,
"send_email_address": null,
"cc_email_address": null,
"source_id": null,
"address_1": null,

"updated_at": "2018-11-27 07:36:58",
"readable_created_at": "1 second ago",
"readable_updated_at": "1 second ago",
"invoice_prefix": "52KZ",
"card": {
"data": []
},
"charge": {
"data": []
}
},
"meta": {
"include": [
"card",

],
"custom": []
}
}
You now have a customer record.
