[FIXED] How to pass the customer id dynamically in the tap payment method to save the card value

Issue

I am sending the post request to the TAP PAYMENT GATEWAY in order to save the card, the url is expecting two parameters like one is the source (the recently generated token) and inside the url the {customer_id}, I am trying the string concatenation, but it is showing the error like Invalid JSON request.

views.py:

ifCustomerExits = CustomerIds.objects.filter(email=email)
totalData = ifCustomerExits.count()
if totalData > 1:
    for data in ifCustomerExits:
        customerId = data.customer_id
        print("CUSTOMER_ID CREATED ONE:", customerId)
    tokenId = request.session.get('generatedTokenId')
    payload = {
        "source": tokenId
    }

    headers = {                        
        'authorization': "Bearer sk_test_**********************",
        'content-type': "application/json"
    }

    # HERE DOWN IS THE url of TAP COMPANY'S API:

    url = "https://api.tap.company/v2/card/%7B"+customerId+"%7D"
    response = requests.request("POST", url, data=payload, headers=headers)
    json_data3 = json.loads(response.text)
    card_id = json_data3["id"]
    return sponsorParticularPerson(request, sponsorProjectId)

Their expected url = https://api.tap.company/v2/card/{customer_id}

Their documentation link: https://tappayments.api-docs.io/2.0/cards/create-a-card

Solution

Try this.. First convert dict. into JSON and send post request with request.post:

    import json
    ...
    customerId = str(data.customer_id)
    print("CUSTOMER_ID CREATED ONE:", customerId)
    tokenId = request.session.get('generatedTokenId')
    payload = {
        'source': tokenId
    }

    headers = {                        
        'authorization': "Bearer sk_test_**************************",
        'content-type': "application/json"
    }
    pd = json.dumps(payload)
    # HERE DOWN IS THE url of TAP COMPANY'S API:

    url = "https://api.tap.company/v2/card/%7B"+customerId+"%7D"
    response = requests.post(url, data=pd, headers=headers)
    json_data3 = json.loads(response.text)
    card_id = json_data3["id"]
    return sponsorParticularPerson(request, card_id)

Please tell me this works or not...
