Interpreting the Redirect Response

After your application redirects the merchant to
Barclays
, this sequence occurs.
  1. Merchants not logged in to the
    Smartpay Fuse Portal
    at the time of the redirect are prompted to do so. Merchants with expired credentials are prompted to reset them, after which they must click the redirect link again.
  2. The
    Smartpay Fuse Portal
    page opens, stating the partner's name along with the permissions that the partner is requesting from the merchant. If the merchant logged in using an account with sufficient privileges, the they are prompted to choose
    Allow
    or
    Deny
    . If the logged-in user does not have sufficient privileges, the
    Allow
    button is disabled.
  3. If the merchant clicks
    Deny
    ,
    Barclays
    redirects the merchant to the URL that you defined in your
    redirect_url
    parameter with no parameters appended to it. This is not a failure but a denial of permission by the merchant's representative. The denial does not prohibit any future attempt for this or any merchant.
  4. When the merchant clicks
    Allow
    ,
    Barclays
    redirects the merchant to the URL that you defined in your
    redirect_url
    parameter.
    The redirect URL in the
    Barclays
    response is encoded with at least one of these parameters:
    Parameter
    Description
    code
    The authorization code that your application sends to
    Barclays
    when requesting an access token (during the next step of the authentication process). For security reasons, the authorization code expires in
    ten minutes
    . If it expires, you must repeat the redirect to request another.
    state
    This parameter is returned only if it was submitted in the request. It is used to test for possible CSRF attacks. If the state values from the request and response do not match, you could be the victim of a CSRF attack, and you should display an HTTP 401 error code in response.
