For both versions, the createSource() method returns a promise that contains a Result object. The Result object, in turn, contains one of two possible objects:
source — A Source object created by Digital River.
error — An error object that indicates a problem with the tokenization request. It provides the data you must correct before creating a source again.
createSource(sourceData)
Use the createSource(sourceData) method to create a payment source that contains information you can safely use with other Commerce APIs. This includes immediate sources (if PCI compliant), redirect sources, or delayed sources. See Configuring payment methods for more information on the structure of these requests.
In the following example, the method takes a single argument. The sourceData contains the data that you want Digital River to tokenize.
var sourceData = {"type":"creditCard","owner": {"firstName":"firstName","lastName":"lastName","email":"email@email.org","address": {"line1":"1234 First St.","city":"Minnetonka","state":"MN","country":"US","postalCode":55410 } },"creditCard": {"number":"4444333322221111","expirationMonth":12,"expirationYear":2025,"cvv":"123" } }digitalriver.createSource(sourceData).then(function(result) {if(result.error) {//handle error messagevar errorMessage =result.error.errors[0].message; } else {//send source to back end for processingvar source =result.source; }});
A successful response returns a source with a unique id.
An unsuccessful response returns an error with information on what needs to be corrected.
{"error": {"type":"bad_request","errors": [{"code":"invalid_parameter","parameter":"owner.firstName","message":"'' is not a valid owner.firstname." }, {"code":"currency_unsupported","parameter":"currency","message":"currency 'xyz' is not supported." }] }, source:undefined}
createSource(element, sourceData)
Use the createSource(element, sourceData) method to create a tokenized source to safely transmit to the backend for use in downstream API calls. This method requests two parameters:
element — A Element object created using the Elements portion of this library.
sourceData — The source data that you want Digital River to tokenize. See Common payment sources for more information on the required source data.
This method uses source data and an element argument in the following example.
var sourceData = {"type":"creditCard","owner": {"firstName":"firstName","lastName":"lastName","email":"email@email.org","address": {"line1":"1234 First St.","city":"Minnetonka","state":"MN","country":"US","postalCode":55410 } } }digitalriver.createSource(cardNumber, sourceData).then(function(result) {if(result.error) {//handle error messagesvar errorMessage =result.error.errors[0].message; } else {//send source to back end for processingvar source =result.source; }});
A successful response returns a source with a unique id.
An unsuccessful response returns an error with information on what needs to be corrected.
{"error": {"type":"validation_error","errors": [{"code":"incomplete_card_number","message":"Your card number is incomplete." }] }, source:undefined}
Specifying a source's future use
When creating a source using DigitalRiver.js, you should identify the types of transactions it will likely be used for in the future. This increases the probability that these future transactions will be approved. The usage value you select should be the one that most closely corresponds to your business model. The available options are subscription, convenience, and unscheduled.
Subscription
Set usage to subscription when you create sources that are used primarily for recurring transactions, made at regular intervals for a product or a service.
Convenience
The convenience setting applies mainly to saved payment sources that are used for one-off transactions. These are sources where customers are typically present during the checkout flow and want to quickly access their payment information. Select this option if you don't offer subscriptions or don't have unscheduled merchant-initiated transactions
Unscheduled
Set usage to unscheduled when you create sources for unscheduled merchant-initiated transactions. These are contracts that occur on a non-fixed schedule using stored card information. Automatic top-ups are an example of one such transaction. They occur whenever a customer's balance drops below a pre-defined amount.
Use this method to retrieve a source with the front-end DigitalRiver.js library. This method takes two parameters:
sourceId—The unique ID of the source you want to retrieve.
sourceClientSecret—The clientSecret value of the source you are trying to retrieve. This is specific to the source.
The digitalriver.createSource() returns a Promise that includes a Result object. (See the following source response example.) The Result object will have either:
result.source—If this object is not null, it will contain the Source object you requested.
result.error— If this object is not null, it will contain an Error object with details on the specific error.
digitalriver.retrieveSource("ee90c07c-5549-4a6b-aa5f-aabe29b1e97a","ee90c07c-5549-4a6b-aa5f-aabe29b1e97a_51afe818-0e7f-46d7-8257-b209b20f4d8").then(function(result) {if(result.error) {//handle error messagesvar errorMessage =result.error.errors[0].message; } else {//do something with the sourcevar source =result.source; }});
The authenticate source method determines whether the saved payment source selected by a customer during the checkout process requires Strong Customer Authentication (SCA).
The standard version of the method accepts a configuration object that contains the data we need to authenticate the source. With the exception of the returnUrl, you can set the parameters of this object by retrieving the source and then getting the required data.
The identifier of the payment source used in this transaction.
sourceClientSecret
Required
The source client secret for this transaction.
returnUrl
Required
The return URL where the customer is directed when 3D Secure 1 is required. If the value is not provided, we use the current page location.
Do not log, embed in URLs, or expose the sourceClientSecret to anyone other than the customer. On any page that includes the secret, ensure that TLS is enabled.
After you call either version of this method, Digital River automatically handles the SCA requirements. Once the customer completes the necessary authentication or we determine that authentication isn't required, the method resolves and the checkout flow can continue.
More specifically, the method returns a promise which is resolved by a source authentication result object. The following are the possible results and the recommended actions:
Status
Description
complete
The customer successfully completed the steps necessary to authenticate the source. You can now submit the order.
authentication_not_required
Digital River determined that the payment source didn't require authentication for this particular payment session. You can now submit the order.
failed
Source authentication failed. The source can still be used in the transaction but may be declined. You should attempt to authenticate the source again.
The following is an example response when a source is successfully authenticated:
{"status": "complete"}
authenticateSource([cvvElement], data)
In this alternative version of the method to authenticate sources, you can provide an optional CVV Element type (assuming it is correctly created and mounted). By setting this parameter, the value contained in the field of the CVV Element is included in the authentication request.
The following is an example response when a source is successfully authenticated:
{"status": "complete"}
Updating sources
digitalriver.updateSource([element,] sourceData);
Use this method to update details on a source.
When updating a source, you can only update the owner and the expiration details for Credit Cards. If you need to update a non-Credit Card (creditCard) payment type, use createSource.
This method takes two parameters:
element—An optional card expiration element for using the Elements portion of this library.
sourceData—A required data object containing additional data required to update the payment source.
Field
Required
Type
Description
clientSecret
Required
String

id
Required
String
The ID of the source you are updating.
owner
Optional
An Owner Object
An object containing the Owner details.
Note: You can only update the owner information for Credit Cards.
digitalriver.updateSource() returns a Promise that returns a result object. The result object will have either:
result.source—A source object that was updated in the Payments Service
result.error—An error occurred that must be corrected to update the source.

digitalriver.retrieveAvailablePaymentMethods({"currency":"USD","country":"US","supportsRecurring":true}).then(function(result) {//do something with the result. This could include showing or hiding specific payment methods that apply to the display.});
The following response only returns payment methods available in the US, using the USD currency, and supporting recurring payments.
Retrieve available payment methods response with a Session ID
If you specify a Payment Session ID, you will only receive the payment methods which apply to your transaction.
digitalriver.retrieveAvailablePaymentMethods({"sessionId":"d3941a36-6821-4d93-be23-6190226ae5f7"}).then(function(result) {//do something with the result. This could include showing or hiding specific payment methods that apply to the display.});
If you want to display the credit card payment logo on your website, you can use the following URLs to add the appropriate brand logo image to your website:
Best Practices: To ensure you always use the latest logo, link to the URL instead of downloading the image to your website.
Use this method to retrieve an array of available banks for a combination of ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country code and ISO 4217 currency code.
This method returns an array that will either be empty if no banks are available or contain objects with Issuer IDs and Bank Names. DigitalRiver.js uses this data when creating an Online Banking source. This method is useful if you want to build a bank selector instead of using the Online Banking element.
digitalriver.retrieveOnlineBankingBanks("DE","EUR").then(function(result) {//do something with the banks; this could include building a selector or something else});
