API Fields

XML Schema Version

Use XML schema 1.128 or later.

Formatting Restrictions

Unless otherwise noted, all field names are case sensitive and all fields accept special characters such as @, #, and %.

The values of the item_#_ fields must not contain carets (^) or colons (:) because these characters are reserved for use by CyberSource services.

Values for request-level and item-level fields must not contain new lines or carriage returns. However, they can contain embedded spaces and any other printable characters. CyberSource removes all leading and trailing spaces.
