Handling redirect payment methods
Gain a better understanding of how to handle transactions funded with a redirect payment method
If you're using Drop-in payments with Direct Integrations and customers opt to fund a transaction with a payment method whose resulting source has a flow of redirect. For example, Bancontact, Klarna, and SEPA Direct Debit must be redirected to the payment provider, where they either approve or cancel the funds transfer.
To do this, we recommend you submit the order and then redirect the customer.

How to implement a submit then redirect flow
In the createDropin() method's configuration object, set the redirect object's disableAutomaticRedirects to true and assign the same value to both returnUrl and cancelUrl.
If customers select a redirect payment method, the data returned by onSuccess contains a source whose state is pending_redirect. When you receive this event, retrieve source.id from data.
let digitalRiver = new DigitalRiver("Your public API key", {
"locale": "en-GB"
});
let configuration = {
"sessionId": "fe50c56f-88a4-4961-8142-7d4784b87264",
"options": {
"flow": "checkout",
"redirect": {
"disableAutomaticRedirects": true,
"returnUrl": "https://mywebsite.com/paymentCallBack.html",
"cancelUrl": "https://mywebsite.com/paymentCallBack.html"
},
...
},
onSuccess: function(data) {
//send sourceId to your backend
var sourceId = data.source.id;
},
...
}
let dropin = digitalriverpayments.createDropin(configuration);
dropin.mount("drop-in");Next, pass this identifier in a server-side attach source to checkout request.

}At this point, retrieve the checkout data you need—such as currency, totalAmount, subTotal, totalTax, shipTo, shippingChoice,payment.sources[], and relevant items[].productDetails—to build a review page.
If customers click your submit order button after reviewing the transaction's details, handle that event by passing the checkout's id to your server and sending it in the body of a create order request.
curl --location 'https://api.digitalriver.com/orders' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--header 'Authorization: Bearer 'Your secret API key' \
...
--data '{
"checkoutId": "c2aabaee-e414-40cc-93f6-9b4d17eef863"
}' If you recieve a 201 Created, and the order's state is pending_payment, then check payment.session.state.

}
}
}
},
"state": "pending_payment",
...
}If its value is pending_redirect, and payment.session.nextAction.data.redirectUrl is a non-null value, then redirect to this URL. This URL goes to the third-party provider's interface, where customers either approve or cancel payment.
If the order's state is pending_payment and the payment.session.state is pending_funds, refer to Handling delayed payment methods.
Once customers complete either of these actions, they're redirected to the endpoint you assigned to cancelUrl and returnUrl.
When this resource loads, call a function that initiates a server-side request and sends the order's identifier and refresh in the path.
curl --location --request POST 'https://api.digitalriver.com/orders/240354510336/refresh' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \

}If (1) state is accepted or in_review or (2) state is pending_payment and payment.session.state is pending or pending_funds, then a charges[] on the sources[] whose flow is redirect has been successfully authorized, and you should display an order confirmation page and send a confirmation email.
At this point, you can initiate fulfillment operations.
Any other (1) state value or (2) combination of state and payment.session.state values indicate that the order can't be recovered. As a result, you'll need to recreate the checkout and send customers back to the payment collection stage. For details, refer to Handling rejected orders.
