Order validation

An order can be validated by calling an external HTTP endpoint of yours before the customer can place it.

The service will be called by the platform:

1. when requesting a budget estimate;
2. when placing an order;
3. when requesting a change of plan;
4. when terminating a subscription.

It's possible to configure multiple endpoints, in which case every configured endpoint must pass validation for the order to be successfully placed.

First Configuration

Add on the product configuration page the full URLs of your endpoints that implement the spec described here.

Request

Your endpoint will receive a POST request with a JSON body content like this:

Budget estimate and order placement

{
  "productId": 123,
  "productIdentifier": "your-product",
  "productVersionId": 456,
  "productVersionIdentifier": "your-product-plan",
  "billingItems":
  {
    "USERS": 10
  },
  "configurationParameters":
  {
    "CUSTOM_DOMAIN": "http://custom.doma.in"
  },
  "buyerId": 111,
  "orderType": "NORMAL",
  "language": "en"
}

Change plan

{
  "productId": 123,
  "productIdentifier": "your-product",
  "productVersionId": 789,
  "productVersionIdentifier": "your-new-product-plan",
  "billingItems":
  {
    "USERS": 10
  },
  "configurationParameters":
  {
    "CUSTOM_DOMAIN": "http://custom.doma.in"
  },
  "subscriptionId": 999,
  "orderType": "SYNDICATED_UPGRADE",
  "language": "en"
}

Termination

{
  "productId": 123,
  "productIdentifier": "your-product",
  "productVersionId": 456,
  "productVersionIdentifier": "your-product-plan",
  "billingItems":
  {
    "USERS": 10
  },
  "configurationParameters":
  {
    "CUSTOM_DOMAIN": "http://custom.doma.in"
  },
  "subscriptionId": 999,
  "orderType": "TERMINATION",
  "language": "en"
}

Response

An HTTP response of 204 means validation has been successful.

To return a validation error, send an HTTP response of 200 with a content-type application/json with an errors field containing 1..n objects, each with a message field:

{
  "errors":
  [
    {
      "message": "<Validation error one>"
    },
    {
      "message": "<Validation error two>"
    }
  ]
}

Any other response code is invalid and validation will fail with a generic server error, inviting the customer to retry later.

Localization

Use the language field in the request to localize the error messages.
