Required Fields for Processing an Authorization with Merchant Decryption

As a best practice, include these
REST API
 fields in your request for an authorization transaction with the
Cybersource
 decryption implementation of Apple Pay.
Depending on your processor, your geographic location, and whether the relaxed address verification system (RAVS) is enabled for your account, some of these fields might not be required. It is your responsibility to determine whether an API field can be omitted from the transaction you are requesting.
