Object
Represents a transaction processed with Square, either with the Connect API or with Square Point of Sale.
The tenders
field of this object lists all methods of payment used to pay in the transaction.
The timestamp for when the transaction was created, in RFC 3339 format.
Examples for January 25th, 2020 6:25:34pm Pacific Standard Time:
UTC: 2020-01-26T02:25:34Z
Pacific Standard Time with UTC offset: 2020-01-25T18:25:34-08:00
If the transaction was created with the Charge endpoint, this value is the same as the value provided for the reference_id
parameter in the request to that endpoint. Otherwise, it is not set.
If the transaction was created in the Square Point of Sale app, this value is the ID generated for the transaction by Square Point of Sale.
This ID has no relationship to the transaction's canonical id
, which is generated by Square's backend servers. This value is generated for bookkeeping purposes, in case the transaction cannot immediately be completed (for example, if the transaction is processed in offline mode).
It is not currently possible with the Connect API to perform a transaction lookup by this value.
