Get Customer Profile unable to reffrence cardNumber

PaceDev — Thu, 17 Aug 2017 19:14:52 GMT

How do I cast the masked CC numbers from the responce?

I tried doing a foreach (var s in response.profile.paymentProfiles)

and then drilling into s.payment.item.cardNumber But that does not seem to be option.

It's odd that the API shows the responce

creditCard	Contains credit card payment information for the customer profile.
cardNumber	The customer’s credit card number. All sensitive payment information in the output is masked.	13 to 16 digits.

But the responce has it as Item.

-       paymentProfiles   {AuthorizeNet.Api.Contracts.V1.customerPaymentProfileMaskedType[1]}   AuthorizeNet.Api.Contracts.V1.customerPaymentProfileMaskedType[]
-       [0]   {AuthorizeNet.Api.Contracts.V1.customerPaymentProfileMaskedType}   AuthorizeNet.Api.Contracts.V1.customerPaymentProfileMaskedType
+       billTo   {AuthorizeNet.Api.Contracts.V1.customerAddressType}   AuthorizeNet.Api.Contracts.V1.customerAddressType
       customerPaymentProfileId   "2501154857"   string
       customerProfileId   null   string
       customerType   individual   AuthorizeNet.Api.Contracts.V1.customerTypeEnum
       customerTypeSpecified   false   bool
       defaultPaymentProfile   false   bool
       defaultPaymentProfileSpecified   false   bool
       driversLicense   null   AuthorizeNet.Api.Contracts.V1.driversLicenseMaskedType
-       payment   {AuthorizeNet.Api.Contracts.V1.paymentMaskedType}   AuthorizeNet.Api.Contracts.V1.paymentMaskedType
-       Item   {AuthorizeNet.Api.Contracts.V1.creditCardMaskedType}   object {AuthorizeNet.Api.Contracts.V1.creditCardMaskedType}
       cardArt   null   AuthorizeNet.Api.Contracts.V1.cardArt
       cardNumber   "XXXX1111"   string
       cardType   "Visa"   string
       expirationDate   "XXXX"   string

and when you call:

string ppId = response.profile.paymentProfiles[0].customerPaymentProfileId;

string ccnum = response.profile.paymentProfiles[0].payment.Item.cardNumber;

Found a way around the problem but surely there has to be a better way.

Dictionary<string, string> CcLookup = new Dictionary<string, string>();
        string MaskedCcNumber = string.Empty;

        foreach (customerPaymentProfileMaskedType item in response.profile.paymentProfiles)
        {
            MaskedCcNumber = string.Empty;
            string j = GetXMLFromObject(item.payment.Item);
            XmlDocument doc = new XmlDocument();
            doc.LoadXml(j);

            XmlNodeList CardNumberTags = doc.GetElementsByTagName("cardNumber");
            if (CardNumberTags.Count <= 0)
            {
                
            }
            else
            {
                MaskedCcNumber = CardNumberTags[0].InnerText;
            }
            CcLookup.Add(item.customerPaymentProfileId, MaskedCcNumber);
        }

        if (response != null && response.messages.resultCode == messageTypeEnum.Ok)
        {

        }
        else if (response != null)
        {

        }

        return CcLookup;

    public static string GetXMLFromObject(object o)
    {
        StringWriter sw = new StringWriter();
        XmlTextWriter tw = null;
        try
        {
            XmlSerializer serializer = new XmlSerializer(o.GetType());
            tw = new XmlTextWriter(sw);
            serializer.Serialize(tw, o);
        }
        catch (Exception ex)
        {
            //Handle Exception Code
        }
        finally
        {
            sw.Close();
            if (tw != null)
            {
                tw.Close();
            }
        }
        return sw.ToString();
    }

Here's a much simpler method:

var cardNumber = ((dynamic)apiResponse.profile.paymentProfiles[0].payment.Item).cardNumber;

I know this is an old thread, but I thought I'd post my solution anyway since I couldn't find anything when I was searching for an answer.

If you do a type comparison you can successfully cast the paymentMaskedType to a specific masked type and therefore gain access to its named values.

Just as a quick example,

var account = "";
var type = "";

// if item matches credit card type
if (transaction.payment.Item is creditCardMaskedType)
{
    var creditCard = (creditCardMaskedType)transaction.payment.Item;
    account = creditCard.cardNumber;
    type = creditCard.cardType;
}
// if item matches bank account type
else if (transaction.payment.Item is bankAccountMaskedType)
{
    var bankAccount = (bankAccountMaskedType)transaction.payment.Item;
    account = bankAccount.accountNumber;
    type = bankAccount.accountType;
}
