Configuring Hosted Checkout Pages
Silent Posts

38 31 July 2012 Gateway Developer Guide and Reference
Silent Posts
The Silent Post feature returns data to your server using the HTML Post method whenever a
transaction succeeds. The data is sent at the same time as when the Receipt page is displayed.
This feature is configured through
https://manager.paypal.com:
Go to Service Settings, then Setup
In the Hosted Checkout Pages tab, set Use Silent Post to Yes
NOTE: To ensure that transactions proceed only if your script actually receives the data
returned by the Silent Post, you must Force Silent Post Confirmation by checking Voi d
transaction when my server fails to receive data sent by the silent post.
Force Silent Post Confirmation
The Force Silent Post Confirmation feature ensures that no transactions proceed unless your
Web site receives the Silent Post data.If you enable this feature, Payflow Gateway sends the
Silent Post data and waits for a 200 OK from your server (indicating the server’s receipt of the
data). If Payflow Gateway does not receive the success response, then the transaction is voided
and the customer sees a communication error message. In this case, PayPal Manager displays
both a transaction that succeeded and a transaction that was voided. To select this feature, be
sure to check Void transaction when my server fails to receive data sent by the silent post when
setting up Silent Posts in PayPal Manager.
SHOWAMOUNT If you pass in $0 amount and trans type = A, then if
SHOWAMOUNT=FALSE, Payflow will not display the
amount in the order summary table.Values:
TRUE/FALSE
SUBTOTAL Amount you pass to Payflow. It is displayed in the order
summary section. This amount is only for display
purposes and is not passed to the transaction servers.
VERBOSITY Additional values that is returned from the transaction
response to the merchant in the Silent Post. By default,
there is no verbosity set which means the standard set of
values that Silent Post currently uses is returned.
Passing in a verbosity will return the extra values that
we get back in the transaction response.Value: HIGH
VERIFY Runs a $0 authorization transaction using the credit card
information the buyer enters. If the $0 authorization is
verified, then Payflow will immediately run the
transaction for the amount and transaction type you pass
to Payflow.Values: TRUE/FALSE
