Response Fields

Response fields are sent using these notification methods:
Notification methods are enabled on the Notifications and Customer Response pages of your
Secure Acceptance
profile.
To ensure the integrity of the response fields, a signature is included in the response. This signature is generated using the same
secret_key
value that was used to generate the request signature.
To verify that the response fields have not been tampered with, create a signature using the fields listed in the
signed_field_names
response field. This signature must be the same value that is included in the signature response field. Refer to the receipt page that is included in the sample scripts. See Scripting Language Samples.
Because response fields and reason codes can be added at any time, proceed as follows:
  • Parse the response data according to the names of the fields instead of their order in the response. For more information on parsing response fields, see the documentation for your scripting language.
  • The signature that you generate must be the same value that is included in the signature response field.
  • Your error handler should use the
    decision
    field to determine the transaction result if it receives a reason code that it does not recognize.
If configured, these response fields are sent back to your Merchant POST URL or email. See Merchant Notifications. Your error handler should use the
decision
field to obtain the transaction result if it receives a reason code that it does not recognize.
The TC 33 Capture file contains information about the purchases and refunds that a merchant submits to Cybersource.
Visa Platform Connect
creates the TC 33 Capture file at the end of the day and sends it to the merchant’s acquirer, who uses this information to facilitate end-of-day clearing processing with payment card companies.
