REST API
Generating a Terminal Activation Code Using a REST API Request
Before activating the terminal in the Acceptance Devices app, you must generate a terminal activation code.
You can use a REST API request to generate a terminal activation code, which is valid for
24 hours.
You must authenticate each request that you send to a
Cybersource
API. In
order to authenticate an API request, you can use a REST shared secret key or a
REST certificate. For more information about authentication requirements, see .Endpoints
The POST request must include the transacting merchant ID (MID) that is sending the
request and the quantity of activation codes to be generated. You can request up to
15 activation codes in a single request.
