    Batch Payment Report API

    This document lists and describes the properties expected in the request and response objects.

    • URL - https://na.bambora.com/scripts/reporting/report.aspx
    • Method - POST

    Request

    The API expects an XML document in the body of the request. The XML declaration should identify the version as "1.0" and the version as "UTF-8".

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    

    The API requires the XML document to include merchantId and passCode elements for authorization, and, serviceName and rptFormat elements to identify the type and format of report to be returned. All other supported elements are filters to constrain the results in the report.

    Filters are assembled as in groups containing a column name (rptFilterBy*), an operation type (rptOperationType*) and a value (rptFilterValue*). The API requires the XML document to include all three, if any one is included.

    Note: Paging limit is set to 500 records
