1. Setting up HTTP Client Pay.NL

1.1 Steps

  1. In the Alumio Dashboard, go to Clients → HTTP Clients. Create a new HTTP Client.
  2. Select Pay.NL HTTP Client as PlatForm and click next step
  3. Fill in the Username and Password.
  4. You can optionally enable logging of request to get the log of the authentication.
  5. Click next step, fill the name of the HTTP Client and finally you can save the HTTP Client for use.

2. Subscribing to Entities from Pay.NL

2.1 Steps

  1. Go to Connections → Incoming and create a new incoming configuration and select “Pay.NL Subscriber” as the subscriber.
  2. Select the entity you want to subscribe to from Pay.NL.
  3. Add any request parameters needed to subscribe to the entity.
  4. Select the Pay.NL HTTP Client to use.
  5. You can optionally add a transformer to transform the request parameters into something you will request from Pay.NL.
  6. You can also optionally enable pagination to allow Alumio fetches paginated entities.

2.2 General Concept

We follow Pay.NL documentation on building this connector, so you can easily use the connector based on Pay.NL API Reference.

Entity

The entity you want to subscribe to Pay.NL. Please refer to the entities from Pay.NL API Reference page.

Request Parameters

These are the parameters you can provide to get the needed entity based on the Pay.NL API Reference.

Please look at the example below on how to fill path field when subscribing “MERCHANT MANAGEMENT - Fetch a service” entity.


From the end point, we can see that we need to set “serviceId” as parameters. That is why we set the “serviceId” inside the path key in the Request Parameters.

Alumio will then make a request to Pay.NL with the URL https://rest.pay.nl/v2/services/SL-9999-9999

  • Path is the path parameter of the url. For example the {id}.
  • Query is defined set of parameters attached to the end of a url.
    Example: www.url.com?type=true&start=0

HTTP Client

The HTTP Client configuration you will use to access Pay.NL.

3. Publishing Entity to Pay.NL

3.1 Steps

  1. Go to Connections → Outgoing, create a new outgoing configuration and select “Pay.NL Publisher” as the publisher.
  2. Select the Method that you want the publisher to perform with the data.
  3. Select the Pay.NL entity you want the data to be published to.
  4. You can optionally add any query data to the request on the key query.
  5. You can optionally add any payload data to the request on the key payload.
  6. Select the HTTP Client to use.

3.2 General Concept

Like the subscriber, the publisher has similar methods on how to use it. The difference is the payload that will be submitted by the publisher originating from the data (from routes, from transformers in outgoing configuration), though you can also add or modify payload using the Request Transformer.

Method

Currently, we support HTTP Post method, HTTP Patch method and HTTP Delete method on submitting data to Pay.NL.

Entity

We support publishing to most Pay.NL endpoints.
Please refer to Pay.NL API Reference page.

For example, we want to create a payment page. Please select “Post” as the Method and “MERCHANT MANAGEMENT - PaymentLink:Create” as the entity of the publisher.


From the end point, we can see that we need to set “serviceId” as parameters. That is why we set the “serviceId” inside the path key in the data.
Based on the documentation, it requires a request body. That is why we set the request body in the payload key inside Alumio data.

Alumio will send an API request to Pay.NL with URL https://rest.pay.nl/v2/services/SL-9999-9999/paymentlink

  • Path is the path parameter of the url. For example the {id}.
  • Query is defined set of parameters attached to the end of a url.
    Example: www.url.com?type=true&start=0
  • Payload is the data contained within a request.

HTTP Client

The HTTP Client configuration you will use to access Pay.NL.
