Message Response Lookup – Function 008
Function 008 retrieves the response to a previous message request submitted by an API user.
This function was created expressly to address situations where the response was not successfully returned to the user. A response may not be returned because the client timed out or because there was a network interruption.
This function should be used when you do not receive a response to a previous request, especially a request that impacts the card balance.
To properly implement this function all MSGID values should be submitted as a unique value. We recommend the use of a global unique ID (GUID) for all messages that will not be forwarded to a
remote API. Additionally, this feature must be enabled within the User API Configuration. The CardAPI will not return a valid response if the credentials do not match, and if an MSGID does not match a previously processed MSGID.
When properly configured, the system will return the response associated with the MSGID identified.
