You can use this endpoint to simulate a real-world authorization from the network in the sandbox environment. This simulation does not go through all the card network services as it would in production, but it does check for card status and balance. The call gives you a chance to see how Pismo might respond to a network authorization. The fields returned can be used to cancel or confirm the request with this endpoint.
You can also use this endpoint to cancel (total or partial) the simulated authorization in the EXT/HOMOLOG environment. To cancel in the production environments, use the Cancel authorization endpoint.
This endpoint generates the simulated Network authorization received event which you can receive and view. This event occurs in production when the Pismo platform cancels or confirms an authorization. You can also use this endpoint to test connectivity to your anti-fraud webhook url.
