Transaction process actions

This reference article lists all the available actions and their configuration options.

Table of Contents

A transaction process contains transitions and each transition defines an ordered list of 0 or more actions. Actions are instructions for the transaction engine and define what happens when a transition is executed. The ordering of the actions matters because they are executed in the given order.

This is a reference for all the available actions with their preconditions, parameters, and configuration options. With parameters we mean values that are sent in the API calls to the actions, and with configuration options we mean the options that are set for the actions in the process.edn file. To learn more, see the Transaction process format reference article.

Actions

Transaction initialization

:action.initializer/init-listing-tx

NOTE: this action is implicit and must not be in the process description.

Initialize a new transaction from a listing.

Preconditions:

  • Listing with the given ID must exist
  • Listing must have an author
  • Customer (actor of the transaction) must be a valid user
  • Author and customer must not be the same user

Parameters:

  • listingId, UUID, mandatory

Configuration options: -

Pricing

:action/privileged-set-line-items

Defines transaction price and breakdown. Sets given line items and calculates totals for each line item and for the entire transaction.

Existing line items will be removed.

Preconditions: -

Parameters:

  • lineItems: Collection of line items (max 50). Each line items has following fields:
    • code: string, mandatory, indentifies line item type (e.g. "line-item/cleaning-fee"), maximum length 64 characters.
    • unitPrice: money, mandatory
    • lineTotal: money
    • quantity: number
    • percentage: number (e.g. 15.5 for 15.5%)
    • seats: number
    • units: number
    • includeFor: array containing strings "customer" or "provider", default ["customer" ":provider" ]

Line item must have either quantity or percentage or both seats and units.

lineTotal is calculated by the following rules:

  • If quantity is provided, the line total will be unitPrice * quantity.
  • If percentage is provided, the line total will be unitPrice * (percentage / 100).
  • If seats and units are provided the line item will contain quantity as a product of seats and units and the line total will be unitPrice * units * seats.

lineTotal can be optionally passed in. Will be validated against calculated line total.

includeFor defines commissions. Customer commission is added by defining includeFor array ["customer"] and provider commission by ["provider"].

payinTotal is calculated by the action and added to the transaction. payinTotal equals to the sum of customer commission line totals and other non-commission line totals. Must be zero or positive. Note: Some line-item configurations are not supported by the default Stripe payment actions. If you use Stripe payment actions, payinTotal needs to be greater than zero, and greater than or equal to payoutTotal. For more details, refer to Stripe action documentation.

payoutTotal is calculated by the action and added to the transaction. payoutTotal equals to the sum of provider commission line totals and other non-commission line totals. Must be zero or positive.

Stripe integration

:action/stripe-create-payment-intent

Action for creating a Stripe PaymentIntent for the transaction. This action supports card payments or equivalent (such as using wallets like Google Pay and Apple Pay).

Payment Intents are the main supported way to collect payments. Transaction processes need to use them especially if they want to be SCA-compatible.

Only one PaymentIntent per transaction is supported.

After the PaymentIntent is created, it's ID and client secret are temporarily accessible in the Sharetribe transaction protected data under the stripePaymentIntents key in the following form:

{
  "default": {
    "stripePaymentIntentId": "pi_1EXSEzLSea1GQQ9x5PnNTeuS",
    "stripePaymentIntentClientSecret": "pi_1EXSEzLSea1GQQ9x5PnNTeuS_secret_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
  }
}

Client applications can use the PaymentIntent client secret in order to handle payment and confirm the PaymentIntent client-side. The stripePaymentIntents key is removed from the protected data once the :action/stripe-confirm-payment-intent is used.

Preconditions:

  • The transaction must already have pricing information (i.e. payin and payout totals) calculated.
  • The calculated payin must be greater than zero
  • The calculated payin must be greater than or equal to the payout

Otherwise, the PaymentMethod (if new) can not be used in any other way again after the payment. After payment is done via the transaction process, the client can use Marketplace API operations /stripe_customer/add_payment_method or /stripe_customer/create to attach the payment method to a Customer or create a new Customer if one didn't exist.

Configuration options:

  • :use-customer-default-payment-method?, boolean, optional. If set to true, the payment intent is created using the Customer's default payment method and it is created as an off-session payment in Stripe (i.e. customer not present). Intended to be used in transitions where customer is not present (i.e. delayed transitions, or ones triggered by operator or provider). This tells Stripe to attempt to exempt the payment from SCA. However, the bank in question may still require authentication. If the bank requires authentication from the customer, or declines the charge for any reason, the Stripe API call will fail and the transition using this action will fail. The action also automatically confirms the payment intent, i.e. :action/stripe-confirm-payment-intent must not be included in this or subsequent transitions.

:action/stripe-create-payment-intent-push

Action for creating a Stripe Payment Intent for use with synchronous push payment methods. The following payment methods are supported:

  • Alipay
  • Bancontact
  • EPS
  • giropay
  • iDEAL
  • Przelewy24

Only one PaymentIntent per transaction is supported.

After the PaymentIntent is created, it's ID and client secret are temporarily accessible in the Sharetribe transaction protected data under the stripePaymentIntents key in the following form:

{
  "default": {
    "stripePaymentIntentId": "pi_1EXSEzLSea1GQQ9x5PnNTeuS",
    "stripePaymentIntentClientSecret": "pi_1EXSEzLSea1GQQ9x5PnNTeuS_secret_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
  }
}

Client applications can use the PaymentIntent client secret in order to handle payment client-side. Typically that involes using Stripe.js SDK to attach a payment method and handle the bank redirect where the customer confirms the payment. The stripePaymentIntents is removed from the protected data once the :action/stripe-confirm-payment-intent is used.

Preconditions:

  • The transaction must already have pricing information (i.e. payin and payout totals) calculated.
  • The calculated payin must be greater than zero
  • The calculated payin must be greater than or equal to the payout

Parameters:

  • paymentMethodTypes, array of strings, mandatory. List of payment method types that are allowed to be used to complete this payment intent. Must be one or more of the following: alipay, bancontact, eps, giropay, ideal, p24.
  • paymentMethod, string, optional. Stripe PaymentMethod ID of payment method to be used in the payment. If not given, client is responsible for attaching a PaymentMethod to the PaymentIntent via e.g. Stripe.js SDK.

Note that the allowed payment method types are passed as transition parameters. If implementations wish to strictly validate which payment methods are allowed to fulfill a payment, use a privileged transition and validate the set of allowed payment methods in your server.

Configuration options: -

:action/stripe-confirm-payment-intent

Action for confirming payment intent that is in pending state.

If the payment intent was created with :action/stripe-create-payment-intent (a card payment), a preauthorization is placed on the card. The payment then can be captured in full by using :action/stripe-capture-payment-intent within 7 days of creating the payment intent, or the preauthorization can be released by using :action/stripe-refund-payment.

IMPORTANT On the other hand, payments with synchronous push payment methods (created with :action/stripe-create-payment-intent-push) are captured and made in full immediately when confirmed by the customer via their bank or app and unlike card payments there is no preauthorization stage. After the payment is made, it can only be reversed with a full refund using :action/stripe-refund-payment. Unlike cancelling a preauthorization, creating a full refund does not refund Stripe's own payment processing fees to the Stripe platform account. Therefore, it is recommended that the transaction process takes that into account. Typically, this means that the transaction process is some form of "instant booking" where provider does not need to accept the booking at all, or alternatively a process where the provider accepts the booking before the payment is made.

Preconditions:

  • Transaction must have a payment created with :action/stripe-create-payment-intent or :action/stripe-create-payment-intent-push.

Parameters: -

Configuration options: -

:action/stripe-capture-payment-intent

Action for capturing a confirmed Stripe PaymentIntent. If the PaymentIntent was created with :action/stripe-create-payment-intent-push, the PaymentIntent is captured automatically already when the payment is confirmed and this action will have no effect. Uncaptured payment intents are valid for seven days, after which they are automatically canceled by Stripe.

Preconditions:

  • Transaction must have a payment that has been confirmed with :action/stripe-confirm-payment-intent
  • Provider must have connected Stripe account

Parameters: -

Configuration options: -

:action/stripe-create-payout

:action/stripe-refund-charge

DEPRECATED: same as :action/stripe-refund-payment, use that instead

:action/stripe-refund-payment

Refund (in full) a Stripe payment. Supports both cancelling a PaymentIntent that has not yet been captured, as well as issuing a Stripe refund for the charge if the PaymentIntent was captured.

Preconditions:

  • The transaction must have a payment created with either :action/stripe-create-payment-intent or :action/stripe-create-payment-intent-push
  • The transaction must not yet have passed through a transition using :action/stripe-create-payout
