This section explains each of the steps to start using the ZRU API.
The ZRU API uses HTTP methods for communication and a RESTful structure. The API authentication is done via an Authorization Header. All requests and responses use the JSON format for communication and representation of data.
To access the API, it is necessary to have an account where you can obtain the credentials to use for API authentication. Sign up can be requested here.
After signing up, you will have a test environment to perform tests.
In ZRU, the environments allow you to manage several businesses / developments in the same account. Each environment will have its unique credentials to make API calls, as well as two possible states: test or production. The environments with the test state will use the sandbox of the different gateways and will not constitute real operations (just for the sake of testing purposes).
Within an environment, you only need to create the payment methods that you will use to charge to your clients from all the ones that we offer.
The management of the payment methods is done from the panel, with the environment active, in the left sidebar Payment Methods.
With this you can start testing with the API. Remember that you can always contact us through Technical Support.
Through the ZRU Panel, payment links can also be generated to send to the customer and make payments without using the API.
