  • 1.  Generating Custom Action authorization code

    I need to dynamically generate an authorization code in order to authenticate my Custom Action for submitting a card transaction. The code needs combine a set of fields (among them the current date) in an HMAC-SHA256 signature that is base64 encoded. Here are the specs for anyone interested: https://epayments-api.developer-ingenico.com/s2sapi/v1/en_US/json/authentication.html?paymentPlatform=ALL

    I was looking at the documentation for something similar (https://help.mypurecloud.com/articles/how-to-use-the-user-defined-oauth-credential-type/), but this does not go far enough. Two questions remain: 
    1. How to encode with HMAC-SHA256?
    2. How to include the current timestamp in the signature?

    Any insight is much appreciated.

    LOL. To be fair, this question was probably more for the developers forum, where I also posted it (https://developer.mypurecloud.com/forum/t/generating-a-custom-action-authorization-code/6005) and got the following response from Tim Smith and Richard Schott:
    This is beyond the capabilities of data actions (HMAC-SHA256 is not currently in the data actions toolkit). You will need to develop a middleware service that the data action calls with the necessary data from PureCloud.

    Thanks to all who spent time on my question!
