Notifications

Partner-portal notification feed — the bell dropdown and `/notifications` page. Read state is tracked per portal user: one teammate marking a notification as read does not clear it for the rest of the team. Primarily a portal-session surface; API keys can read it with the `notification:read` / `notification:update` scopes.

🔬Preview stream (/api/v1-preview)
These endpoints are reserved or behind feature flags and may change before promotion to stable. Operations badged “Reserved — not yet available”return 404 (or 501) today; do not build against them yet. This spec is generated from the canonical contract — see the stable /api/v1 reference for production-ready endpoints.

Authorization

BearerAuth
AuthorizationBearer <token>

Cresora API key, sent as an opaque bearer token in the Authorization header. Format:

csk__

  • <prefix> — 8 URL-safe chars, shown in UI and logs for identification without revealing the full key (e.g. csk_Ab3kX9mQ…). Use ApiKey.prefix to match.
  • <random> — 24+ cryptographically random URL-safe chars.

Obtain via Partner Portal → Settings → API keys. Keys are only shown in full at creation/rotation time — Cresora does not retain the full value in retrievable form. Rotate any key that may have been exposed via logs, client code, or source control.

Path Parameters

notificationId*string

Header Parameters

Idempotency-Key*string

Client-generated unique key — a UUIDv4 is the recommended form. Cresora deduplicates within a 24-hour window scoped to the partner.

Format: 1–128 characters of letters, digits, . _ : -. Anything else is rejected with 400 validation_error. The character set is narrower than base64: padded base64 (+ / =) is NOT accepted, base64url is. The key is forwarded verbatim to the payment gateway on transaction creates, so it must satisfy the gateway's key contract too — rejecting locally gives you an actionable error instead of an opaque upstream failure mid-request.

Reserved prefixes — rejected with 400 idempotency_key_reserved:

  • hpp:, recurring: — Cresora's own server-minted deterministic keys. A client key in these namespaces could collide with a platform-generated record.
  • rb:, inv-charge:, inv-installment: — reserved by the payment gateway for its internally-minted keys.

Replay semantics:

  • Same key + same request body → Cresora returns the cached response from the original call. Response includes header Idempotency-Replay: true so the client can distinguish replays from fresh executions. Status code, body and side effects are identical to the original call.
  • Same key + different body409 idempotency_key_conflict. Generate a new key and retry.
  • Key older than 24 hours → treated as a fresh key; no replay guarantee from beyond the window.

Retrying after an indeterminate failure. On 502 gateway_outcome_unknown the transaction is recorded as pending and the outcome is not yet known — retry with the SAME key (a fresh key risks a double charge) or poll the transaction. This is also what a gateway-side "an earlier request with this key is still in flight" response surfaces as.

Do NOT reuse keys across different partners. Scope is enforced per partner_id so the same key in partner A and partner B is independent.
