submit for settlement API

[DimitriSannen]

Hi,

We are struggling to connect with Braintree, our payment gateway to integrate with PayPal.

Context

• SAP Cloud middleware
• REST or SOAP API usage is preferred
• Graphql on Braintree side

From a technical point of view, we need to

• connect - end point is https://payments.sandbox.braintree-api.com/graphql and that seems to be correct
• authenticate - using a bearer token in the message header. That seems to work fine

From a functional point of view, we need to settle the payment. So we need to have a kind of Braintree "submit for settlement" API.

QUESTION is: what is the API to do that? How can we make this happen within Braintree, considering the matter above.

Thanks a lot.

Hi @DimitriSannen 

Sounds like you're looking for the submit for settlement option. This can be done when running a sale.

That document should reference the method you're looking for as you simply put "submitForSettlement=true" in the options. 

Hope that helps!

Hi @MTS-Aaron ,

Thanks for reaching out. 

In the meantime, I got feedback from someone from PayPal too.

Seems that we need to go for the chargePaymentMethod API.

I will get started with that one and hopefully we can manage.

Kind regards,

Dimitri
