Event flags

❗ Important: As a vendor you must capture these event flags because they indicate that the event was generated from running tests. An integration event that contains a DEVELOPMENT or STATELESS event flag is an integration test event and not a real integration event.

Event notifications can contain an event flag with one of the following values:

• DEVELOPMENT: Indicates that the event was generated for an application that is in development. Vendors can use this flag to identify events generated by applications that are not publicly visible. For example, you can use it to distinguish debugging and developer accounts from live accounts. These events do not generate invoices or payments. Events with this flag were generated when you ran the Integration report to test your live API URL endpoints.
• STATELESS: Indicates that the event is for testing purposes only. The application does not require any persistent state changes. Vendors should return a well-formed response, such as an error code. Events with this flag were generated when you ran ping tests to test if the endpoint URLs, that you entered on the Edit integration page, respond when the platform sends an API call to them. See Run ping tests.
