Gateway specific fields

When interacting with a Vanco gateway to run transactions, there are some gateway specific fields you can specify when making a purchase call:

  • fund_id
  • session_id

Here, session_id is an object with an existing session id issued by Vanco as its id value, and a timestamp string as its created_at value. This timestamp string reflects when the session id was created by Vanco.

Note that sending a session_id is not required to complete a transaction with Vanco. Without it, transaction session ids are handled automatically. If you choose to use this field, you must first receive its values from the response_session_id gateway specific response field, as detailed below.

Session ids created by Vanco expire every 24 hours.

Gateway specific response fields

When interacting with a Vanco gateway to run transactions, there are some gateway specific response fields that are returned when making a purchase call:

  • response_session_id

With most transactions, a session id is returned in the id field nested in the response_session_id gateway specific response field, and a timestamp string in the created_at nested field. This session id is generated by Vanco, and timestamp string reflects when the session id was created by Vanco.

Both the id and created_at field values can optionally be passed into the session_id gateway specific field cited above to complete a purchase with an existing session id. This session id will expire every 24 hours, and a new one is generated automatically and returned in the id nested field of the response_session_id gateway specific response field.

The response_session_id gateway specific response field is not returned in a transaction response if the session_id gateway specific field was passed in the transaction request, unless that session id was expired and a new one had to be generated by Vanco.

Passing session id data returned in the response_session_id gateway specific response field for a request is completely optional. If you are not planning to use the session_id gateway specific field to complete a transaction, you can ignore the contents of response_session_id.
