API Reference

The Recharge API is primarily a REST API with some RPC endpoints to support common operations. It has predictable, resource-oriented URLs, accepts JSON-encoded request bodies, returns JSON-encoded responses, and uses standard HTTP response codes, authentication, and methods.

API and Platforms compatibility

Recharge offers hosted solutions and integrates with various ecommerce platforms to process recurring transactions with the setup of your choice. In order to be compatible with those platforms some of our API resources and endpoints may be limited in use to a subset of platforms. When that is the case we will flag with the help of tags the checkout/platform association for which that feature is compatible.
When there is no restriction of compatibility no tags will appear.
Below is a legend of the tags you may come across:


Tag Checkout solution Ecommerce platform
BigCommerce Recharge hosted BigCommerce
Custom Recharge hosted or API-first Custom
RCS Recharge hosted Shopify
SCI Shopify hosted Shopify

You may also come across other tags specifying regional restrictions (e.g. USA Only) or new releases (e.g. Alpha, Beta).

Authentication

Recharge uses API keys to authenticate requests.

Each request to the API should contain an API token in the following header:

X-Recharge-Access-Token:store_api_token

Replace store_api_token with your API key.

All requests must be made over HTTPS.


API Token Scopes

Scopes can be set up from the API token edit page in Recharge to control the level of access of an API token.

The API currently supports the scopes below:

Write Read
read_accounts
write_batches read_batches
write_customers read_customers
write_discounts read_discounts
read_events
write_notifications
write_orders read_orders
write_payment_methods read_payment_methods
write_products read_products
write_subscriptions read_subscriptions
read_store
read_credit_accounts
read_credit_adjustments
GET /
curl -i -H 'X-Recharge-Access-Token: your_api_token'
-X GET

Versioning

All requests will use your account API settings, unless you send a X-Recharge-Version header to specify the version.
You can use the same token to make calls to all versions. When no version is specified it will default to the default version on your store.

Responses

Recharge uses conventional HTTP response codes to indicate the success or failure of an API request. In general, codes in the 2xx range indicate success, codes in the 4xx range indicate an error that failed given the information provided ( e.g. a required parameter was omitted, a charge failed, etc ), and codes in the 5xx range indicate an error with Recharge’s servers.

200 - OK: Everything worked as expected.
201 - OK: The request was successful, created a new resource, and resource created is in the body.
202 - OK: The request has been accepted and is in processing.
204 - OK: The server has successfully fulfilled the request and there is no content to send in the response body.
400 - Bad Request: The request was unacceptable, often due to a missing required parameter.
401 - Unauthorized: No valid API key was provided.
402 - Request Failed: The parameters were valid but the request failed.
403 - The request was authenticated but not authorized for the requested resource (permission scope error).
404 - Not Found: The requested resource doesn’t exist.
405 - Method Not Allowed: The method is not allowed for this URI.
406 - The request was unacceptable, or requesting a data source which is not allowed although permissions permit the request.
409 - Conflict: You will get this error when you try to send two requests to edit an address or any of its child objects at the same time, in order to avoid out of date information being returned.
415 - The request body was not a JSON object.
422 - The request was understood but cannot be processed due to invalid or missing supplemental information.
426 - The request was made using an invalid API version.
429 - The request has been rate limited.
500 - Internal server error.
501 - The resource requested has not been implemented in the current version but may be implemented in the future.
503 - A 3rd party service on which the request depends has timed out.

Extending responses

Our API endpoints and webhooks allow developers to extend responses with additional data in order to optimize calls, allowing for simpler and more efficient implementations.

The API supports including additional objects when using a GET request to retrieve a list or a GET request to retrieve a record by a specific id. This is achieved by using an include query parameter in the request URL. The include value contains the object or objects you want to include in the response of your request. On routes where multiple includes are available, you are able to pass multiple values separated by a comma (include=customer,metafields). The below table defines available include values for commonly used resources of the API.

Webhooks support included_objects on the topics listed below. Webhook included_objects accepts an array of supported values ("included_objects": [ "customer", "metafields"]). Specifying included_objects will return an enriched payload, containing the original resource and the associated included objects.

Page Based Pagination

By default API calls will return 50 results. By using the limit parameter that can be increased to 250 results.

When there are more results than can fit on a page you may loop through the results by using the page parameter.

To request a page, include page as a parameter in the url.

E.g. https://api.rechargeapps.com/subscriptions?limit=250&page=1

The example to the right shows a loop through all Subscription by page.

With minor changes this example can be used for looping through any object type: Customers, Addresses etc.


NOTE:
Page based pagination deep into large data sets is not recommended due to performance degradation. To paginate deeper into a data set, we recommend exploring cursor pagination instead.
Example Request
# request the first page (page=1)
curl -i -H 'X-Recharge-Access-Token: your_api_token'
 -X GET https://api.rechargeapps.com/subscriptions?limit=250&page=1
# request next page of results (page=2)
curl -i -H 'X-Recharge-Access-Token: your_api_token'
 -X GET https://api.rechargeapps.com/subscriptions?limit=250&page=2
Example Response
id: 123
id: 456
# ... continues through 250 records
page: 1 result_size: 250

id: 567
id: 678
# ... continues through 250 records
page: 2 result_size: 250

id: 567
id: 678
# ... continues through only 10 records, no further pages needed
page: 3 result_size: 10

Cursor Pagination

By default API calls will return 50 results. By using the limit parameter that can be increased to 250 results. When there are more results than the current limit a cursor may be used to request additional results.

Cursor based pagination is the preferred method for looping through all records in a given data set, as it is more performant than specifying a page number along with number of results. This method also provides more assurance that you will receive all of the records in a given set.

Cursor based pagination works by providing a reference to a specific item in a list of sequential data which will represent the cursor, such as a numeric id. You can then specify whether you would like to query records starting before or starting after that item.

For convenience, the API provides a Link header in all responses for which there are further pages. This header contains both a next_cursor and previous_cursor link, which is just a URL with an encoded page_info parameter that contains any filters from your first call, as well as markers to let the API know where it left off and where to begin for the next call.

Please note that the only compatible filter allowed to be used with cursors is limit.


Supported endpoints for Link
GET /addresses
GET /async_batches
GET /async_batches/:id/tasks
GET /charges
GET /customers
GET /discounts
GET /orders
GET /products
GET /subscriptions

NOTE:
/charges requests which supply either the updated_at_min or created_at_min filter will not currently return a Link header.
Requests which contain a filter for ids, shopify_product_ids will not return a Link header.
Example Request
URL="https://api.rechargeapps.com/charges?limit=5"

response=$(curl -s -w "%{http_code}" 
    -H 'X-Recharge-Access-Token: your_api_token'  
    -H 'X-Recharge-Version: 2021-11'  
    -X GET $URL)

 content=$(sed '$ d' <<< "$response") # get all but the last line which contains the status code

# Display results
echo $content | jq "."

# parse next url
echo "Next URL"
next_cursor=$(jq ".next_cursor" <<< "${content}")

# Notice next_cursor value is passed as page_info query param
echo "$URL&page_info=$next_cursor"

Sorting

The API supports sorting of results when using a GET request to retrieve a list. Sorting is achieved using a sort_by query parameter in the request URL. The sort_by value contains the parameter and sort direction for your results (ascending or descending), and available sort_by values vary between resources. The below table defines available sort_by options for commonly used resources.


Resource Supported sort_by_values
Address Default: id-desc
Options: id-asc id-desc updated_at-asc updated_at-desc
Async Batch Default: id-desc
Options: id-asc id-desc created_at-asc created_at-desc

Charges

A charge is the representation of a financial transaction linked to the purchase of an item (past or future). It can be a transaction that was processed already or the representation of an upcoming transaction. A charge is linked to its corresponding Orders( one Order for pay as you go subscriptions and several for pre-paid). Order are created once the corresponding Charge is successful. After successful payment, the first order will be immediately submitted to the external platform if applicable (e.g. Shopify, BigCommerce).

The charge object

A Charge is the representation of the financial transaction linked to a purchase (past or future). It can be a transaction that was processed already or the representation of an upcoming transaction. A charge is linked to its corresponding Orders (one for pay as you go subscriptions and several for pre-paid).
A Charge can have many parent subscriptions. All subscriptions on a given Address with the same next_charge_date date will be merged into one Charge and that charge will contain one line_item per Subscription.

Capture a charge

Pro plan

Beta

If you are leveraging the authorize/capture workflow with Recharge, the charge/capture_payment endpoint is how to capture the funds of a previously authorized Charge.

Capture Window


You can only capture payment on charges that have been authorized within the last 7 days. This is a limitation of payment providers/financial institutions and Recharge cannot configure or override this limit. Any charges that are attempted to be captured beyond that 7 day window may respond in an error indicating the charge cannot be captured.

As a result, Recharge provides a charge/uncaptured webhook. If subscribed, this webhook will notify you of any charges that are not captured 6 days after authorization. Please refer to the webhooks section for more information.

The capture_payment endpoint is available to Recharge Pro merchants in the Recharge Closed Beta group. If you’re interested in leveraging the Recharge charge capture_payment endpoint, reach out to your account manager or our Support team.
Learn more about Recharge Pro.
