Adds PayPay onboarding parameters to the Accounts API Public preview
What’s new
Adds support for additional PayPay onboarding parameters to the Accounts API. You can now provide complete PayPay configuration data when creating or updating connected accounts, including website accessibility settings and supplementary documentation files.
The new parameters include:
- type : Specifies whether your website is accessible, restricted, or in development
- username and site_password : Required credentials for development websites
- additional_files : Array of file IDs for supplementary documentation
Additionally, you can now update the specified_commercial_transactions_act_url property through the API, which was previously only configurable through the Dashboard.
Impact
Your Connect platform can now provide complete PayPay onboarding data for your connected accounts without requiring manual Dashboard configuration. This enables a fully programmatic onboarding flow for PayPay payments in Japan.
When uploading files for PayPay onboarding, use the account_requirement purpose with the Files API. The password parameter is write-only and returns a password_provided boolean property when reading account data for security purposes.
