authNotifyAlipay+ ACQP

Alipay+ uses the authNotify API to inform the Acquiring Partner (ACQP) in the following scenarios:

  • An authorization code is created at the Mobile Payment Provider (MPP ) side. Alipay+ sends the authorization code and related parameters to the ACQP.
  • An access token is created at the MPP side. Alipay+ sends the access token and related parameters to the ACQP.
  • An access token is canceled at the MPP side due to one of the following reasons:
    • A user successfully unbinds the merchant platform account and the MPP platform account through the merchant platform with the cancelToken API.
    • A user successfully unbinds the merchant platform account and the MPP platform account the through the MPP side.
    • The MPP has to unbind the user account directly from the back-end system. 

Note: In the following sections, Mobile Payment Partner (MPP) is also known as PSP. For example, pspId refers to the ID that identifies an MPP. 

Structure

A message consists of a header and body. The following sections are focused on the body structure. For the header structure, see:

Note:

Set the data type of each field (except array) as String. This means that you must use double quotation marks (" ") to enclose the field value. Examples:

  • If the data type of a field is Integer and its value is 20, set it as "20". 
  • If the data type of a field is Boolean and its value is true, set it as "true". 

For optional parameters that are not required in your case, you can:

  • exclude it from the request body. 
  • set its value as null (without the double quotation marks).

Do NOT leave it empty by setting its value as ""; otherwise, an error might occur.
