[FIXED] How can I test flagged transaction response in test environment in Checkout.com

Issue

I am using Checkout.com for payment processing. I want to test flagged transaction response in a test environment.

How can I get this response in test mode?

Solution

Flagging a transaction is an action that is taken by a Risk Rule in Checkout.com

To be able to flag a transaction you simply need to set a risk rule in your Checkout.com Hub and trigger this risk rule in your payment request.

For example, you can set up a "threshold" risk rule that will flag a transaction if it exceeds (or it's bellow) a certain amount.

After setting up this, sending a payment request with a value that will trigger the risk rule, will result in a flagged response from the API.

You can also see some sample responses in the API Reference of Checkout.com

Here is a sample:

{
"id": "pay_jf7xoknmva3upbatzkiqcwvkea",
"action_id": "act_jf7xoknmva3upbatzkiqcwvkea",
"amount": 20000,

"approved": true,
"status": "Authorized",

"eci": "05",
"scheme_id": "638284745624527",
"response_code": "10000",
"response_summary": "Approved",
"risk": {
    "flagged": true
},

    // dynamic based on your source

    },
    "actions": {
        "href": "https://api.sandbox.checkout.com/payments/pay_jf7xoknmva3upbatzkiqcwvkea/actions"
    },
    "capture": {
        "href": "https://api.sandbox.checkout.com/payments/pay_jf7xoknmva3upbatzkiqcwvkea/captures"
    },
    "void": {
        "href": "https://api.sandbox.checkout.com/payments/pay_jf7xoknmva3upbatzkiqcwvkea/voids"
    }
}
}

Notice the:

"risk": {
  "flagged": true
},
