no data in x_SHA2_Hash when using Silent Post

desiminr61 — Fri, 01 Feb 2019 18:48:24 GMT

I've created a Signature Key but there is no data in x_SHA2_Hash when using Silent Post.

What is required to get the x_SHA2_Hash field to be populated?

Were you able to figure this out? I'm experiencing the same issue, and support was unable to help with this.

I'm having a very similar issue (different API) here:

https://community.developer.authorize.net/t5/Integration-and-Testing/transHashSha2-not-present-in-API-response/td-p/66500

So far, no useful response.

I too am trying to test using sandbox silent post and am finding that field empty. To add to the fun the md5 process we've used for decades doesn't match the sandbox's returned X_MD5_HASH value either.

Hello @MinneSnowtain @desiminr61 @gh

What type of transaction are you submitting that is not returning an SHA2 hash in the response?

I'm requesting a silent post from authorize.net sandbox back to our testing site. (signed into sandbox account>Account>Under 'Transaction Format Settings'>Silent Post URL>entered a url to our site

Hello @MinneSnowtain

Thanks for the reply. Which API specifically are you calling to create a transaction? We would like to duplicate if possible so as much detail as possible is appreciated.

@RichardH

no api, just post data to https://secure.authorize.net/gateway/transact.dll and after processing payment it is suppose to silent post back to us so we can record the payment results. (and that post url has been changed to https://test.authorize.net/gateway/transact.dll for sandbox testing)

@MinneSnowtain

It appears you're using our older AIM method. Could you provide a sample transaction request with any sensitive information removed? Please also include your sandbox API Login but not your transaction key.

@RichardH

Absolutely but why? Can't you guys just populate that returned field with the correct hashed string instead of leaving it empty? or fix the X_MD5_HASH returned value.

@MinneSnowtain At present, we're unable to duplicate the issue you are reporting so we need an example that we can test ourselves.

Click the submit button which brings up your payment gateway https://test.authorize.net/gateway/transact.dll I fill out the billing info useing the visa test cc from https://developer.authorize.net/hello_world/testing_guide/ click the pay now button and I get the posted data FROM YOU of

X_MD5_HASH 4D242833C50615331720B3BECAC476D3

X_SHA2_HASH

[empty string]

@RichardH I've tried a couple times but my response keeps getting rejected as spam.

Re: no data in x_SHA2_Hash when using Silent Post

MinneSnowtain — Tue, 26 Feb 2019 18:27:03 GMT

@RichardH

trying this another way

so we post data to you site, https://test.authorize.net/gateway/transact.dll. user fills it out hits pay now button that then process and post back to our silent post url. the data YOU SEND BACK to us is missing a value in the X_SHA2_HASH field..it's empty and the data in the X_MD5_HASH field no longer matches.

I was able to move your post from the spam quarantine.

I see that, thank you! Now if you can fix the sandbox silent post return I'll take back everything I've been muttering under my breath.

Hello @MinneSnowtain

Checking your sandbox account, we noted your sandbox account has not generated a signature key. Please do that and try again.

@RichardH

Okay and what do I do with that?

Re: no data in x_SHA2_Hash when using Silent Post

RichardH — Tue, 26 Feb 2019 19:21:29 GMT

@MinneSnowtain

The Signature Key is used to validate that transactions are authentic and from Authorize.Net. If you're using the MD5 hash today for validation, you'll need to update your integration to use the SHA2 hash as outlined here: https://support.authorize.net/s/article/MD5-Hash-End-of-Life-Signature-Key-Replacement

@RichardH

oooh I see if I have that key the X_SHA2_HASH is populated! Could you please confirm the hashed string? seen a number of conflicting reports as far as does it start with ^ I'm using this:

#x_login#^#form.x_fp_sequence#^#form.x_fp_timestamp#^#form.x_amount#^#form.x_currency_code# could you please confirm that is the correct string?
