returning paymentprofileid from addPayment POST

stzoid — Wed, 16 Apr 2014 16:09:54 GMT

I have been successful using editPayment to edit an existing paymentprofile (see first code snippit below). But now I want to use addPayment to add a new PaymentProfile. When I use the second code snippit below, it does properly allow the user to add a new PaymentProifile BUT since nothing is returned from Authorize on this post, I cannot get back the new PaymentProfileID (am I mistaken, can I get the PaymentProfileID as a return?)

So because I cannot get the PaymentProfileID, I run getCustomerProfileRequest to return ALL PaymentProfiles. I am then in the odd position where I have to make an assumption which of the returned PaymentProfileID's is indeed the new one that I just added.

Better way?

editPayment
<form method="POST" action="https://test.authorize.net/profile/editPayment" id="formAuthorizeNetPage">
<input type="hidden" name="token" value ="{token}">
<input type="hidden" name="PaymentProfileId" value="xxxxxxx" />
</form>

addPayment
<form method="POST" action="https://test.authorize.net/profile/addPayment" id="formAuthorizeNetPage">
<input type="hidden" name="token" value ="{token}">
</form>

I had a good discussion with an expert Authorize.net developer (thanks:)) and have it straight now. I was trying to over apply my own set of rules and logic in an area that is more restricted by PCI than I am used to. I stil think a simple flow chart showing all of the development steps requried would be handy.
