# Psync Flow Pattern for Connector Implementation

**🎯 GENERIC PATTERN FILE FOR ANY NEW CONNECTOR**

This document provides comprehensive, reusable patterns for implementing the Psync (Payment Sync) flow in **ANY** payment connector within the UCS (Universal Connector Service) system. These patterns are extracted from successful connector implementations across all 22 connectors in the connector service and can be consumed by AI to generate consistent, production-ready Psync flow code for any payment gateway.

> **🏗️ UCS-Specific:** This pattern is tailored for UCS architecture using RouterDataV2, ConnectorIntegrationV2, and domain_types. For traditional Hyperswitch patterns, refer to legacy documentation.

## 🚀 Quick Start Guide

To implement a new connector Psync flow using these patterns:

1. **Choose Your Pattern**: Use [Modern Macro-Based Pattern](#modern-macro-based-pattern-recommended) for 95% of connectors
2. **Select HTTP Method**: Choose between [GET Pattern](#get-based-psync-pattern) (most common) or [POST Pattern](#post-based-psync-pattern) based on your API
3. **Replace Placeholders**: Follow the [Placeholder Reference Guide](#placeholder-reference-guide)
4. **Select Components**: Choose URL construction, authentication, and response parsing based on your connector's API
5. **Follow Checklist**: Use the [Integration Checklist](#integration-checklist) to ensure completeness

### Example: Implementing "NewPayment" Connector Psync Flow

```bash
# Replace placeholders:
{ConnectorName} → NewPayment
{connector_name} → new_payment
{AmountType} → MinorUnit (if API uses integer cents)
{HttpMethod} → GET (if API uses RESTful status checking)
{psync_endpoint} → "v1/payments/{id}/status" (your status API endpoint)
{auth_type} → HeaderKey (if using Bearer token auth)
```

**✅ Result**: Complete, production-ready connector Psync flow implementation in ~15 minutes

## Overview

The Psync (Payment Sync) flow is a critical payment processing flow that:
1. Receives payment status query requests from the router
2. Transforms them to connector-specific query format
3. Sends status requests to the payment gateway using transaction references
4. Processes status responses and maps payment states
5. Returns standardized payment status responses to the router

### Key Components:
- **Main Connector File**: Implements PSync trait and flow logic
- **Transformers File**: Handles Psync request/response data transformations
- **URL Construction**: Builds status query endpoint URLs (typically with transaction ID)
- **Authentication**: Manages API credentials (same as authorization flow)
- **Transaction ID Handling**: Extracts and uses connector transaction references
- **Status Mapping**: Converts connector payment statuses to standard statuses

## Psync Flow Implementation Analysis

Based on comprehensive analysis of all 22 connectors in the connector service, here's the implementation status:

### ✅ Full Psync Flow Implementation (20 connectors)
These connectors have complete Psync flow implementations with dedicated request/response structures:

**GET-Based Implementations (12 connectors):**
1. **Bluecode** - Simple GET with transaction ID in URL path
2. **Checkout** - RESTful GET with payment ID parameter
3. **Mifinity** - Complex URL with merchant and payment IDs
4. **Nexinets** - Hierarchical URL with order and transaction IDs
5. **Noon** - GET with reference ID in path
6. **Phonepe** - GET with custom headers for verification
7. **Razorpay** - Conditional URL patterns (payment vs order)
8. **Razorpayv2** - Enhanced version with improved response handling
9. **Volt** - OAuth-based GET with bearer token
10. **Xendit** - Simple GET with auto-capture detection

**POST-Based Implementations (8 connectors):**
1. **Adyen** - POST with redirect details and 3DS support
2. **Authorizedotnet** - POST with transaction wrapper and BOM handling
3. **Braintree** - GraphQL-based POST queries
4. **Elavon** - XML-to-form POST processing
5. **Fiserv** - JSON POST with HMAC signature authentication
6. **Fiuu** - Form-data POST with custom response parsing
7. **Novalnet** - JSON POST with redirect support
8. **Paytm** - Complex POST with AES signature encryption
9. **Payu** - Form-encoded POST with SHA-512 signatures

### 🔧 Stub/Trait Implementation Only (2 connectors)
These connectors implement the PSync trait but have empty/stub implementations:

1. **Cashfree** - Stub implementation only
2. **Cashtocode** - Trait implemented, no Psync flow

### 📊 Implementation Statistics
- **Complete implementations**: 20/22 (91%)
- **Stub implementations**: 2/22 (9%)
- **Most common pattern**: GET-based with transaction ID in URL (12/20, 60%)
- **Most common auth**: Basic Auth (6/20, 30%)
- **Most common amount format**: StringMajorUnit (8/20, 40%)

## Modern Macro-Based Pattern (Recommended)

This is the current recommended approach using the macro framework for maximum code reuse and consistency.

### Main Connector File Pattern (Psync Flow Addition)

```rust
// File: crates/integrations/connector-integration/src/connectors/{connector_name}.rs

// In the imports section, ensure PSync flow is included:
use domain_types::{
    connector_flow::{
        Accept, Authorize, Capture, CreateOrder, ServerSessionAuthenticationToken, DefendDispute, PSync, RSync,
        Refund, RepeatPayment, SetupMandate, SubmitEvidence, Void,
    },
    connector_types::{
        PaymentFlowData, PaymentVoidData,
        PaymentsAuthorizeData, PaymentsCaptureData, PaymentsResponseData, PaymentsSyncData,
        // ... other imports
    },
};

// In transformers import, include Psync types:
use transformers::{
    {ConnectorName}AuthorizeRequest, {ConnectorName}AuthorizeResponse,
    {ConnectorName}SyncRequest, {ConnectorName}SyncResponse,
    {ConnectorName}ErrorResponse,
    // ... other types
};

// Implement PaymentSync trait
impl<T: PaymentMethodDataTypes + Debug + Sync + Send + 'static + Serialize>
    connector_types::PaymentSyncV2 for {ConnectorName}<T>
{
}

// Add PSync flow to the macro prerequisites
macros::create_all_prerequisites!(
    connector_name: {ConnectorName},
    generic_type: T,

        // Add other flows as needed...
    ],
    amount_converters: [
        amount_converter: {AmountUnit} // StringMinorUnit, StringMajorUnit, MinorUnit
    ],
    member_functions: {
        // Same build_headers and connector_base_url functions as other flows
        pub fn build_headers<F, FCD, Req, Res>(
            &self,
            req: &RouterDataV2<F, FCD, Req, Res>,
        ) -> CustomResult<Vec<(String, Maskable<String>)>, IntegrationError> {
            let mut header = vec![(
                headers::CONTENT_TYPE.to_string(),
                "{content_type}".to_string().into(),
            )];
            let mut auth_header = self.get_auth_header(&req.connector_auth_type)?;
            header.append(&mut auth_header);
            Ok(header)
        }

        pub fn connector_base_url_payments<'a, F, Req, Res>(
            &self,
            req: &'a RouterDataV2<F, PaymentFlowData, Req, Res>,
        ) -> &'a str {
            &req.resource_common_data.connectors.{connector_name}.base_url
        }
    }
);

// Implement PSync flow using macro framework
macros::macro_connector_implementation!(
    connector_default_implementations: [get_content_type, get_error_response_v2],
    connector: {ConnectorName},
    // Choose appropriate request pattern:
    curl_request: Json({ConnectorName}SyncRequest), // For POST requests
    // OR
    // (no curl_request line for GET requests)
    curl_response: {ConnectorName}SyncResponse,
    flow_name: PSync,
    resource_common_data: PaymentFlowData,
    flow_request: PaymentsSyncData,

            Ok(format!("{base_url}/{psync_endpoint}", 
                base_url = base_url,

            // Pattern 3: Same endpoint as authorization
            // Ok(base_url.to_string())
        }

// Add Source Verification stub for PSync flow
impl<T: PaymentMethodDataTypes + std::fmt::Debug + std::marker::Sync + std::marker::Send + 'static + Serialize>
    SourceVerification<PSync, PaymentFlowData, PaymentsSyncData, PaymentsResponseData>
    for {ConnectorName}<T>
{
    // Stub implementation - will be replaced in Phase 10
}
```

### Transformers File Pattern (Psync Flow)

```rust
// File: crates/integrations/connector-integration/src/connectors/{connector_name}/transformers.rs

// Add psync-specific imports to existing imports:
use domain_types::{
    connector_flow::{Authorize, PSync}, // Add PSync here
    connector_types::{
        PaymentFlowData, PaymentsAuthorizeData, PaymentsResponseData, 
        PaymentsSyncData, ResponseId,
    },
    // ... other imports
};

// Psync Request Structure (for POST-based connectors)

            status_code: item.http_code,
        };

        Ok(Self {
            resource_common_data: PaymentFlowData {
                status,
                ..router_data.resource_common_data.clone()
            },
            response: Ok(payments_response_data),
            ..router_data.clone()
        })
    }
}

// Helper struct for router data transformation (same as other flows)
pub struct {ConnectorName}RouterData<T> {
    pub amount: {AmountType},
    pub router_data: T,
}

impl<T> TryFrom<({AmountType}, T)> for {ConnectorName}RouterData<T> {
    type Error = error_stack::Report<IntegrationError>;
    
    fn try_from((amount, router_data): ({AmountType}, T)) -> Result<Self, Self::Error> {
        Ok(Self {
            amount,
            router_data,
        })
    }
}
```

## GET-Based Psync Pattern

GET-based Psync is the most common pattern (used by 12/20 implemented connectors). It's simple, cacheable, and follows RESTful principles.

### When to Use GET Pattern
- Connector provides RESTful status endpoints
- No sensitive data needs to be sent in request body
- Status checking is idempotent and safe
- URL length limits are not a concern

### GET Pattern Implementation

```rust
// Main connector file - GET implementation
macros::macro_connector_implementation!(
    connector_default_implementations: [get_content_type, get_error_response_v2],
    connector: {ConnectorName},
    // No curl_request for GET - body is empty
    curl_response: {ConnectorName}SyncResponse,
    flow_name: PSync,
    resource_common_data: PaymentFlowData,
    flow_request: PaymentsSyncData,
    flow_response: PaymentsResponseData,
    http_method: Get, // Specify GET method
    generic_type: T,
    [PaymentMethodDataTypes + std::fmt::Debug + std::marker::Sync + std::marker::Send + 'static + Serialize],
    other_functions: {
        fn get_headers(
            &self,
            req: &RouterDataV2<PSync, PaymentFlowData, PaymentsSyncData, PaymentsResponseData>,
        ) -> CustomResult<Vec<(String, Maskable<String>)>, IntegrationError> {
            // GET requests typically don't need Content-Type
            let mut header = vec![];
            let mut auth_header = self.get_auth_header(&req.connector_auth_type)?;
            header.append(&mut auth_header);
            Ok(header)
        }
        
        fn get_url(
            &self,
            req: &RouterDataV2<PSync, PaymentFlowData, PaymentsSyncData, PaymentsResponseData>,
        ) -> CustomResult<String, IntegrationError> {
            let transaction_id = req.request.get_connector_transaction_id()
                .change_context(errors::IntegrationError::MissingConnectorTransactionID)?;
            
            let base_url = self.connector_base_url_payments(req);
            
            // Choose appropriate GET URL pattern:
            match "{url_pattern}" {
                "rest_with_id" => {
                    // Most common: /payments/{id} or /payments/{id}/status
                    Ok(format!("{}/v1/payments/{}/status", base_url, transaction_id))
                },
                "query_parameter" => {
                    // Alternative: /status?payment_id={id}
                    Ok(format!("{}/v1/status?payment_id={}", base_url, transaction_id))
                },
                "hierarchical" => {
                    // Complex: /orders/{order_id}/transactions/{txn_id}
                    let order_id = req.request.connector_request_reference_id.clone();
                    Ok(format!("{}/v1/orders/{}/transactions/{}", base_url, order_id, transaction_id))
                },
                _ => {
                    // Default pattern
                    Ok(format!("{}/payments/{}", base_url, transaction_id))
                }
            }
        }
    }
);

// Transformers - Empty request structure for GET
#[derive(Debug, Serialize)]
pub struct {ConnectorName}SyncRequest;

impl TryFrom<{ConnectorName}RouterData<RouterDataV2<PSync, ...>>> for {ConnectorName}SyncRequest {
    type Error = error_stack::Report<IntegrationError>;

    fn try_from(
        _item: {ConnectorName}RouterData<RouterDataV2<PSync, ...>>,
    ) -> Result<Self, Self::Error> {
        // No request body needed for GET
        Ok(Self)
    }
}
```

### GET Pattern Examples

**Simple RESTful Pattern (Checkout-style):**
```rust
fn get_url(&self, req: &RouterDataV2<PSync, ...>) -> CustomResult<String, IntegrationError> {
    let transaction_id = req.request.get_connector_transaction_id()?;
    Ok(format!("{}/payments/{}", self.connector_base_url_payments(req), transaction_id))
}
```

**Status Endpoint Pattern (Bluecode-style):**
```rust
fn get_url(&self, req: &RouterDataV2<PSync, ...>) -> CustomResult<String, IntegrationError> {
    let transaction_id = req.request.get_connector_transaction_id()?;
    Ok(format!("{}/api/v1/order/{}/status", self.connector_base_url_payments(req), transaction_id))
}
```

**Complex Path Pattern (Nexinets-style):**
```rust
fn get_url(&self, req: &RouterDataV2<PSync, ...>) -> CustomResult<String, IntegrationError> {
    let transaction_id = req.request.get_connector_transaction_id()?;
    let order_id = req.request.connector_request_reference_id.clone();
    Ok(format!("{}/orders/{}/transactions/{}", 
        self.connector_base_url_payments(req), order_id, transaction_id))
}
```

## POST-Based Psync Pattern

POST-based Psync is used when the API requires complex queries, authentication in the request body, or doesn't support RESTful GET endpoints.

### When to Use POST Pattern
- Connector requires complex query parameters
- Authentication must be in request body
- Sensitive data needs to be sent securely
- API doesn't support RESTful GET endpoints
- Query requires multiple parameters or filters

### POST Pattern Implementation

```rust
// Main connector file - POST implementation
macros::macro_connector_implementation!(
    connector_default_implementations: [get_content_type, get_error_response_v2],
    connector: {ConnectorName},
    curl_request: Json({ConnectorName}SyncRequest), // Specify JSON request body
    curl_response: {ConnectorName}SyncResponse,
    flow_name: PSync,
    resource_common_data: PaymentFlowData,
    flow_request: PaymentsSyncData,
    flow_response: PaymentsResponseData,
    http_method: Post, // Specify POST method
    generic_type: T,
    [PaymentMethodDataTypes + std::fmt::Debug + std::marker::Sync + std::marker::Send + 'static + Serialize],
    other_functions: {
        fn get_headers(
            &self,
            req: &RouterDataV2<PSync, PaymentFlowData, PaymentsSyncData, PaymentsResponseData>,
        ) -> CustomResult<Vec<(String, Maskable<String>)>, IntegrationError> {
            let mut header = vec![(
                headers::CONTENT_TYPE.to_string(),
                "application/json".to_string().into(),
            )];
            let mut auth_header = self.get_auth_header(&req.connector_auth_type)?;
            header.append(&mut auth_header);
            Ok(header)
        }
        
        fn get_url(
            &self,
            req: &RouterDataV2<PSync, PaymentFlowData, PaymentsSyncData, PaymentsResponseData>,
        ) -> CustomResult<String, IntegrationError> {
            let base_url = self.connector_base_url_payments(req);
            
            // Choose appropriate POST URL pattern:
            match "{post_pattern}" {
                "inquiry_endpoint" => {
                    // Dedicated inquiry endpoint
                    Ok(format!("{}/v1/transaction-inquiry", base_url))
                },
                "status_endpoint" => {
                    // General status endpoint
                    Ok(format!("{}/v1/payment-status", base_url))
                },
                "same_as_auth" => {
                    // Same endpoint as authorization (operation determined by request body)
                    Ok(base_url.to_string())
                },
                _ => {
                    // Default pattern
                    Ok(format!("{}/sync", base_url))
                }
            }
        }
    }
);

// Transformers - Complex request structure for POST
#[derive(Debug, Serialize)]
#[serde(rename_all = "camelCase")]
pub struct {ConnectorName}SyncRequest {
    pub merchant_authentication: {ConnectorName}AuthType,
    pub transaction_id: String,
    pub query_type: String,
    #[serde(skip_serializing_if = "Option::is_none")]
    pub additional_data: Option<HashMap<String, String>>,
}

impl TryFrom<{ConnectorName}RouterData<RouterDataV2<PSync, ...>>> for {ConnectorName}SyncRequest {
    type Error = error_stack::Report<IntegrationError>;

    fn try_from(
        item: {ConnectorName}RouterData<RouterDataV2<PSync, ...>>,
    ) -> Result<Self, Self::Error> {
        let router_data = &item.router_data;
        
        let transaction_id = router_data.request.get_connector_transaction_id()
            .change_context(IntegrationError::MissingConnectorTransactionID)?;

        let auth = {ConnectorName}AuthType::try_from(&router_data.connector_auth_type)?;

        Ok(Self {
            merchant_authentication: auth,
            transaction_id,
            query_type: "payment_status".to_string(),
            additional_data: None,
        })
    }
}
```

### POST Pattern Examples

**Transaction Inquiry Pattern (Fiserv-style):**
```rust
#[derive(Debug, Serialize)]
pub struct FiservSyncRequest {
    pub merchant_details: MerchantDetails,
    pub reference_transaction_details: ReferenceTransactionDetails,
}

fn get_url(&self, req: &RouterDataV2<PSync, ...>) -> CustomResult<String, IntegrationError> {
    Ok(format!("{}/ch/payments/v1/transaction-inquiry", 
        self.connector_base_url_payments(req)))
}
```

**Wrapped Request Pattern (Authorizedotnet-style):**
```rust
#[derive(Debug, Serialize)]
pub struct AuthorizedotnetSyncRequest {
    pub get_transaction_details_request: TransactionDetails,
}

fn get_url(&self, req: &RouterDataV2<PSync, ...>) -> CustomResult<String, IntegrationError> {
    // Same endpoint as authorization
    Ok(self.connector_base_url_payments(req).to_string())
}
```

**GraphQL Pattern (Braintree-style):**
```rust
pub type BraintreeSyncRequest = GenericBraintreeRequest<PSyncInput>;

#[derive(Debug, Serialize)]
pub struct PSyncInput {
    pub query: String,
    pub variables: TransactionSearchInput,
}

fn get_url(&self, req: &RouterDataV2<PSync, ...>) -> CustomResult<String, IntegrationError> {
    // GraphQL endpoint
    Ok(self.connector_base_url_payments(req).to_string())
}
```

## URL Construction Patterns

### Pattern 1: RESTful Resource Pattern (Most Common)

Used by connectors that follow REST principles with transaction IDs as path parameters.

```rust
fn get_url(&self, req: &RouterDataV2<PSync, ...>) -> CustomResult<String, IntegrationError> {
    let transaction_id = req.request.get_connector_transaction_id()?;
    let base_url = self.connector_base_url_payments(req);
    
    // Examples:
    // Checkout: "{base_url}/payments/{id}"
    // Volt: "{base_url}/payments/{id}"
    // Xendit: "{base_url}/payment_requests/{id}"
    
    Ok(format!("{}/payments/{}", base_url, transaction_id))
}
```

### Pattern 2: Status Endpoint Pattern

Used by connectors with dedicated status checking endpoints.

```rust
fn get_url(&self, req: &RouterDataV2<PSync, ...>) -> CustomResult<String, IntegrationError> {
    let transaction_id = req.request.get_connector_transaction_id()?;
    let base_url = self.connector_base_url_payments(req);
    
    // Examples:
    // Bluecode: "{base_url}/api/v1/order/{id}/status"
    // PhonePe: "{base_url}/status/{merchant_id}/{transaction_id}"
    
    Ok(format!("{}/api/v1/order/{}/status", base_url, transaction_id))
}
```

### Pattern 3: Hierarchical Resource Pattern

Used by connectors with hierarchical resource structures.

```rust
fn get_url(&self, req: &RouterDataV2<PSync, ...>) -> CustomResult<String, IntegrationError> {
    let transaction_id = req.request.get_connector_transaction_id()?;
    let order_id = extract_order_id(&req.request)?;
    let base_url = self.connector_base_url_payments(req);
    
    // Examples:
    // Nexinets: "{base_url}/orders/{order_id}/transactions/{transaction_id}"
    // Noon: "{base_url}/payment/v1/order/getbyreference/{reference_id}"
    
    Ok(format!("{}/orders/{}/transactions/{}", base_url, order_id, transaction_id))
}

fn extract_order_id(request: &PaymentsSyncData) -> Result<String, IntegrationError> {
    // Extract order ID from connector metadata or request reference
    request.connector_request_reference_id.clone()
        .ok_or(IntegrationError::MissingRequiredField { field_name: "order_id" , context: Default::default() })
}
```

### Pattern 4: Query Parameter Pattern

Used by connectors that prefer query parameters over path parameters.

```rust
fn get_url(&self, req: &RouterDataV2<PSync, ...>) -> CustomResult<String, IntegrationError> {
    let transaction_id = req.request.get_connector_transaction_id()?;
    let base_url = self.connector_base_url_payments(req);
    
    // Examples:
    // Custom API: "{base_url}/status?payment_id={id}"
    // Legacy API: "{base_url}/query?txn={id}&type=status"
    
    Ok(format!("{}/status?payment_id={}", base_url, transaction_id))
}
```

### Pattern 5: Complex Identifier Pattern

Used by connectors requiring multiple identifiers in the URL.

```rust
fn get_url(&self, req: &RouterDataV2<PSync, ...>) -> CustomResult<String, IntegrationError> {
    let transaction_id = req.request.get_connector_transaction_id()?;
    let merchant_id = extract_merchant_id(&req.connector_auth_type)?;
    let payment_id = extract_payment_id(&req.request)?;
    let base_url = self.connector_base_url_payments(req);
    
    // Examples:
    // Mifinity: "{base_url}/api/gateway/payment-status/payment_validation_key_{merchant_id}_{payment_id}"
    // PhonePe: "{base_url}/status/{merchant_id}/{transaction_id}"
    
    Ok(format!("{}/api/gateway/payment-status/payment_validation_key_{}_{}", 
        base_url, merchant_id, payment_id))
}
```

### Pattern 6: Fixed Endpoint Pattern

Used by connectors with single endpoints that handle multiple operations.

```rust
fn get_url(&self, req: &RouterDataV2<PSync, ...>) -> CustomResult<String, IntegrationError> {
    let base_url = self.connector_base_url_payments(req);
    
    // Examples:
    // Authorizedotnet: Same endpoint for all operations
    // Paytm: "{base_url}/v3/order/status"
    // Fiserv: "{base_url}/ch/payments/v1/transaction-inquiry"
    
    Ok(format!("{}/v3/order/status", base_url))
}
```

### URL Construction Helper Functions

```rust
// Helper functions for URL construction
pub fn build_psync_url(
    base_url: &str,
    pattern: PsyncUrlPattern,
    identifiers: &PsyncIdentifiers,
) -> Result<String, IntegrationError> {
    match pattern {
        PsyncUrlPattern::RestfulResource => {
            Ok(format!("{}/payments/{}", base_url, identifiers.transaction_id))
        },
        PsyncUrlPattern::StatusEndpoint => {
            Ok(format!("{}/api/v1/order/{}/status", base_url, identifiers.transaction_id))
        },
        PsyncUrlPattern::Hierarchical => {
            let order_id = identifiers.order_id.as_ref()
                .ok_or(IntegrationError::MissingRequiredField { field_name: "order_id" , context: Default::default() })?;
            Ok(format!("{}/orders/{}/transactions/{}", 
                base_url, order_id, identifiers.transaction_id))
        },
        PsyncUrlPattern::QueryParameter => {
            Ok(format!("{}/status?payment_id={}", base_url, identifiers.transaction_id))
        },
        PsyncUrlPattern::FixedEndpoint => {
            Ok(format!("{}/transaction-inquiry", base_url))
        },
    }
}

#[derive(Debug)]
pub enum PsyncUrlPattern {
    RestfulResource,
    StatusEndpoint,
    Hierarchical,
    QueryParameter,
    FixedEndpoint,
}

#[derive(Debug)]
pub struct PsyncIdentifiers {
    pub transaction_id: String,
    pub order_id: Option<String>,
    pub merchant_id: Option<String>,
    pub payment_id: Option<String>,
}

impl PsyncIdentifiers {
    pub fn from_request(request: &PaymentsSyncData) -> Result<Self, IntegrationError> {
        let transaction_id = request.get_connector_transaction_id()
            .change_context(IntegrationError::MissingConnectorTransactionID)?;
        
        Ok(Self {
            transaction_id,
            order_id: Some(request.connector_request_reference_id.clone()),
            merchant_id: None, // Extract from auth if needed
            payment_id: None,  // Extract from metadata if needed
        })
    }
}
```

## Authentication Patterns

### Pattern 1: Basic Authentication (Most Common)

Used by 6 connectors including Razorpay, Braintree, and Nexinets.

```rust
impl TryFrom<&ConnectorAuthType> for {ConnectorName}AuthType {
    type Error = IntegrationError;
    
    fn try_from(auth_type: &ConnectorAuthType) -> Result<Self, Self::Error> {
        match auth_type {
            ConnectorAuthType::HeaderKey { api_key } => Ok(Self {
                api_key: api_key.to_owned(),
            }),
            _ => Err(IntegrationError::FailedToObtainAuthType { context: Default::default() }),
        }
    }
}

// In get_auth_header:
fn get_auth_header(&self, auth_type: &ConnectorAuthType) -> CustomResult<Vec<(String, Maskable<String>)>, IntegrationError> {
    let auth = {ConnectorName}AuthType::try_from(auth_type)?;
    
    Ok(vec![(
        "Authorization".to_string(),
        format!("Basic {}", 
            base64::Engine::encode(&base64::engine::general_purpose::STANDARD, 
                format!("{}:", auth.api_key.peek())
            )
        ).into_masked(),
    )])
}
```

### Pattern 2: Bearer Token Authentication

Used by connectors like Checkout and Volt.

```rust
fn get_auth_header(&self, auth_type: &ConnectorAuthType) -> CustomResult<Vec<(String, Maskable<String>)>, IntegrationError> {
    let auth = {ConnectorName}AuthType::try_from(auth_type)?;
    
    Ok(vec![(
        "Authorization".to_string(),
        format!("Bearer {}", auth.api_token.peek()).into_masked(),
    )])
}
```

### Pattern 3: Custom Header Authentication

Used by connectors like Adyen, Mifinity, and PhonePe.

```rust
fn get_auth_header(&self, auth_type: &ConnectorAuthType) -> CustomResult<Vec<(String, Maskable<String>)>, IntegrationError> {
    let auth = {ConnectorName}AuthType::try_from(auth_type)?;
    
    Ok(vec![
        ("X-API-Key".to_string(), auth.api_key.into_masked()),
        ("X-Merchant-ID".to_string(), auth.merchant_id.into_masked()),
    ])
}
```

### Pattern 4: Signature-Based Authentication

Used by enterprise connectors like Fiserv, Paytm, and PayU.

```rust
// HMAC Signature (Fiserv-style)
fn get_auth_header(&self, auth_type: &ConnectorAuthType) -> CustomResult<Vec<(String, Maskable<String>)>, IntegrationError> {
    let auth = {ConnectorName}AuthType::try_from(auth_type)?;
    let timestamp = chrono::Utc::now().timestamp().to_string();
    let payload = ""; // Request body for signature
    
    let signature = generate_hmac_signature(&auth.api_secret, &timestamp, payload)?;
    
    Ok(vec![
        ("Api-Key".to_string(), auth.api_key.into_masked()),
        ("Timestamp".to_string(), timestamp.into()),
        ("Message-Signature".to_string(), signature.into_masked()),
    ])
}

fn generate_hmac_signature(secret: &str, timestamp: &str, payload: &str) -> Result<String, IntegrationError> {
    let message = format!("{}{}{}", auth.api_key, timestamp, payload);
    let mut mac = hmac::Hmac::<sha2::Sha256>::new_from_slice(secret.as_bytes())
        .map_err(|_| IntegrationError::RequestEncodingFailed)?;
    mac.update(message.as_bytes());
    let result = mac.finalize();
    Ok(base64::Engine::encode(&base64::engine::general_purpose::STANDARD, result.into_bytes()))
}
```

### Pattern 5: No Authentication

Used by simple connectors like Elavon and Fiuu.

```rust
fn get_auth_header(&self, _auth_type: &ConnectorAuthType) -> CustomResult<Vec<(String, Maskable<String>)>, IntegrationError> {
    // No authentication headers needed
    Ok(vec![])
}
```

### Pattern 6: Request Body Authentication

Used by connectors like Authorizedotnet where auth goes in request body.

```rust
#[derive(Debug, Serialize)]
pub struct {ConnectorName}SyncRequest {
    pub merchant_authentication: MerchantAuthentication,
    pub transaction_id: String,
}

#[derive(Debug, Serialize)]
pub struct MerchantAuthentication {
    pub name: String,
    pub transaction_key: Secret<String>,
}

impl TryFrom<&ConnectorAuthType> for MerchantAuthentication {
    type Error = IntegrationError;
    
    fn try_from(auth_type: &ConnectorAuthType) -> Result<Self, Self::Error> {
        match auth_type {
            ConnectorAuthType::SignatureKey { api_key, api_secret, .. } => Ok(Self {
                name: api_key.peek().to_string(),
                transaction_key: api_secret.to_owned(),
            }),
            _ => Err(IntegrationError::FailedToObtainAuthType { context: Default::default() }),
        }
    }
}

// No special auth headers needed
fn get_auth_header(&self, _auth_type: &ConnectorAuthType) -> CustomResult<Vec<(String, Maskable<String>)>, IntegrationError> {
    Ok(vec![])
}
```

## Status Mapping Patterns

**CRITICAL STATUS MAPPING BEST PRACTICES:**

1. **Always map status from connector's operation_result or equivalent field** - Never assume status based on HTTP code alone
2. **Use From trait implementation or explicit match statement** - Use the From trait pattern shown below for clean status mapping to AttemptStatus
3. **Never hardcode status values** - Always derive status from the connector's actual response field

### Pattern 1: Simple Enum Mapping (Most Common)

Direct mapping from connector status enum to standard AttemptStatus using From trait.

```rust
#[derive(Debug, Deserialize, Clone)]
#[serde(rename_all = "snake_case")]
pub enum {ConnectorName}PaymentStatus {
    Succeeded,
    Failed,
    Pending,
    Cancelled,
}

// BEST PRACTICE: Use From trait to map connector status to AttemptStatus
impl From<{ConnectorName}PaymentStatus> for common_enums::AttemptStatus {
    fn from(status: {ConnectorName}PaymentStatus) -> Self {
        match status {
            {ConnectorName}PaymentStatus::Succeeded => Self::Charged,
            {ConnectorName}PaymentStatus::Failed => Self::Failure,
            {ConnectorName}PaymentStatus::Pending => Self::Pending,
            {ConnectorName}PaymentStatus::Cancelled => Self::Voided,
        }
    }
}
```

### Pattern 2: String-Based Status Mapping

Used when connector returns status as strings rather than structured enums.

```rust
pub fn map_status_string_to_attempt_status(status: &str) -> common_enums::AttemptStatus {
    match status.to_lowercase().as_str() {
        "success" | "succeeded" | "completed" | "captured" | "charged" => {
            common_enums::AttemptStatus::Charged
        },
        "failed" | "error" | "declined" | "rejected" => {
            common_enums::AttemptStatus::Failure
        },
        "pending" | "processing" | "in_progress" => {
            common_enums::AttemptStatus::Pending
        },
        "requires_action" | "authentication_required" | "challenge_pending" => {
            common_enums::AttemptStatus::AuthenticationPending
        },
        "authorized" | "approved" => {
            common_enums::AttemptStatus::Authorized
        },
        "cancelled" | "voided" | "canceled" => {
            common_enums::AttemptStatus::Voided
        },
        "refunded" | "settled" => {
            common_enums::AttemptStatus::Charged, // Successful final state
        },
        _ => common_enums::AttemptStatus::Pending, // Default for unknown statuses
    }
}

// Usage in response transformation
impl TryFrom<ResponseRouterData<{ConnectorName}SyncResponse, ...>> for RouterDataV2<PSync, ...> {
    fn try_from(item: ResponseRouterData<{ConnectorName}SyncResponse, ...>) -> Result<Self, Self::Error> {
        let status_string = &item.response.status;
        let status = map_status_string_to_attempt_status(status_string);
        
        // ... rest of transformation
    }
}
```

### Pattern 3: Code-Based Status Mapping

Used by connectors that return numeric or alphanumeric status codes.

```rust
pub fn map_status_code_to_attempt_status(code: &str) -> common_enums::AttemptStatus {
    match code {
        // Success codes
        "00" | "000" | "200" | "OK" => common_enums::AttemptStatus::Charged,
        
        // Pending codes
        "01" | "102" | "PENDING" => common_enums::AttemptStatus::Pending,
        
        // Authentication required codes
        "05" | "AUTH_REQUIRED" => common_enums::AttemptStatus::AuthenticationPending,
        
        // Authorization codes
        "10" | "AUTHORIZED" => common_enums::AttemptStatus::Authorized,
        
        // Failure codes
        "12" | "14" | "51" | "DECLINED" => common_enums::AttemptStatus::Failure,
        
        // Cancelled codes
        "99" | "CANCELLED" => common_enums::AttemptStatus::Voided,
        
        _ => {
            // Log unknown status code for debugging
            logger::warn!("Unknown status code: {}", code);
            common_enums::AttemptStatus::Pending
        }
    }
}
```

### Pattern 4: Boolean-Based Status Mapping

Used by simple connectors that return success/failure booleans.

```rust
#[derive(Debug, Deserialize)]
pub struct {ConnectorName}SyncResponse {
    pub success: bool,
    pub status: Option<String>,
    pub error_code: Option<String>,
}

impl TryFrom<ResponseRouterData<{ConnectorName}SyncResponse, ...>> for RouterDataV2<PSync, ...> {
    fn try_from(item: ResponseRouterData<{ConnectorName}SyncResponse, ...>) -> Result<Self, Self::Error> {
        let response = &item.response;
        
        let status = if response.success {
            // Further refinement based on additional status field
            match response.status.as_deref() {
                Some("authorized") => common_enums::AttemptStatus::Authorized,
                Some("settled") | Some("captured") => common_enums::AttemptStatus::Charged,
                _ => common_enums::AttemptStatus::Charged, // Default success
            }
        } else {
            // Check error code for more specific failure reason
            match response.error_code.as_deref() {
                Some("insufficient_funds") => common_enums::AttemptStatus::Failure,
                Some("authentication_failed") => common_enums::AttemptStatus::AuthenticationFailed,
                _ => common_enums::AttemptStatus::Failure, // Default failure
            }
        };
        
        // ... rest of transformation
    }
}
```

### Pattern 5: Contextual Status Mapping

Used when status depends on transaction type, amount, or other context.

```rust
pub fn map_contextual_status(
    status: &str,
    transaction_type: &str,
    amount: Option<i64>,
    original_amount: i64,
) -> common_enums::AttemptStatus {
    match (status.to_lowercase().as_str(), transaction_type.to_lowercase().as_str()) {
        ("completed", "authorization") => common_enums::AttemptStatus::Authorized,
        ("completed", "capture") => common_enums::AttemptStatus::Charged,
        ("completed", "settlement") => common_enums::AttemptStatus::Charged,
        ("completed", "refund") => common_enums::AttemptStatus::Charged, // Successful refund
        ("completed", "void") => common_enums::AttemptStatus::Voided,
        
        ("pending", _) => common_enums::AttemptStatus::Pending,
        ("failed", _) => common_enums::AttemptStatus::Failure,
        
        // Partial capture detection
        ("completed", "capture") if amount.is_some() && amount.unwrap() < original_amount => {
            common_enums::AttemptStatus::PartialCharged
        },
        
        _ => common_enums::AttemptStatus::Pending, // Safe default
    }
}
```

### Pattern 6: Multi-Response Status Mapping

Used by connectors like Razorpay that return different response types.

```rust
#[derive(Debug, Deserialize)]
#[serde(untagged)]
pub enum {ConnectorName}SyncResponse {
    PaymentResponse({ConnectorName}PaymentResponse),
    OrderPaymentsCollection({ConnectorName}OrderPaymentsCollectionResponse),
    ErrorResponse({ConnectorName}ErrorResponse),
}

impl TryFrom<ResponseRouterData<{ConnectorName}SyncResponse, ...>> for RouterDataV2<PSync, ...> {
    fn try_from(item: ResponseRouterData<{ConnectorName}SyncResponse, ...>) -> Result<Self, Self::Error> {
        let response = &item.response;
        
        let status = match response {
            {ConnectorName}SyncResponse::PaymentResponse(payment) => {
                map_payment_status_to_attempt_status(&payment.status)
            },
            {ConnectorName}SyncResponse::OrderPaymentsCollection(order) => {
                // Take status from the first payment in the collection
                order.items.first()
                    .map(|payment| map_payment_status_to_attempt_status(&payment.status))
                    .unwrap_or(common_enums::AttemptStatus::Pending)
            },
            {ConnectorName}SyncResponse::ErrorResponse(_) => {
                common_enums::AttemptStatus::Failure
            },
        };
        
        // ... rest of transformation
    }
}
```

### Status Mapping Helper Functions

```rust
// Standardized status mapping interface
pub trait StatusMapper {
    type ConnectorStatus;
    
    fn map_to_attempt_status(&self, status: Self::ConnectorStatus) -> common_enums::AttemptStatus;
    fn is_final_status(&self, status: Self::ConnectorStatus) -> bool;
    fn is_success_status(&self, status: Self::ConnectorStatus) -> bool;
}

// Generic status mapper implementation
pub struct StandardStatusMapper;

impl StatusMapper for StandardStatusMapper {
    type ConnectorStatus = String;
    
    fn map_to_attempt_status(&self, status: String) -> common_enums::AttemptStatus {
        map_status_string_to_attempt_status(&status)
    }
    
    fn is_final_status(&self, status: String) -> bool {
        matches!(
            self.map_to_attempt_status(status),
            common_enums::AttemptStatus::Charged
            | common_enums::AttemptStatus::Failure
            | common_enums::AttemptStatus::Voided
            | common_enums::AttemptStatus::PartialCharged
        )
    }
    
    fn is_success_status(&self, status: String) -> bool {
        matches!(
            self.map_to_attempt_status(status),
            common_enums::AttemptStatus::Charged
            | common_enums::AttemptStatus::Authorized
            | common_enums::AttemptStatus::PartialCharged
        )
    }
}

// Status mapping with logging for debugging
pub fn map_status_with_logging(
    connector_name: &str,
    connector_status: &str,
    mapped_status: common_enums::AttemptStatus,
) -> common_enums::AttemptStatus {
    logger::debug!(
        "Status mapping for {}: '{}' -> {:?}",
        connector_name,
        connector_status,
        mapped_status
    );
    mapped_status
}
```

## Error Handling Patterns

### Pattern 1: Standard Error Response Structure

Most connectors use a basic error response with code and message fields.

```rust
#[derive(Debug, Deserialize)]
pub struct {ConnectorName}ErrorResponse {
    pub error_code: Option<String>,
    pub error_message: Option<String>,
    pub error_description: Option<String>,
    pub transaction_id: Option<String>,
}

impl Default for {ConnectorName}ErrorResponse {
    fn default() -> Self {
        Self {
            error_code: Some("UNKNOWN_ERROR".to_string()),
            error_message: Some("Unknown error occurred".to_string()),
            error_description: None,
            transaction_id: None,
        }
    }
}

// In ConnectorCommon implementation
fn build_error_response(
    &self,
    res: Response,
    event_builder: Option<&mut ConnectorEvent>,
) -> CustomResult<ErrorResponse, errors::ConnectorError> {
    let response: {ConnectorName}ErrorResponse = if res.response.is_empty() {
        {ConnectorName}ErrorResponse::default()
    } else {
        res.response
            .parse_struct("ErrorResponse")
            .change_context(errors::ConnectorError::ResponseDeserializationFailed { context: Default::default() })?
    };

    if let Some(i) = event_builder {
        i.set_error_response_body(&response);
    }

    Ok(ErrorResponse {
        status_code: res.status_code,
        code: response.error_code.unwrap_or_default(),
        message: response.error_message.unwrap_or_default(),
        reason: response.error_description,
        attempt_status: None,
        connector_transaction_id: response.transaction_id,
        network_decline_code: None,
        network_advice_code: None,
        network_error_message: None,
    })
}
```

### Pattern 2: Unified Error Response (Multiple Formats)

Used when connector returns different error formats for different scenarios.

```rust
#[derive(Debug, Deserialize)]
#[serde(untagged)]
pub enum {ConnectorName}ErrorResponse {
    StandardError {
        error: {ConnectorName}Error,
    },
    SimpleError {
        message: String,
        code: Option<String>,
    },
    ValidationError {
        errors: Vec<{ConnectorName}FieldError>,
    },
    NetworkError {
        network_error: String,
        network_code: Option<String>,
    },
}

#[derive(Debug, Deserialize)]
pub struct {ConnectorName}Error {
    pub code: String,
    pub message: String,
    pub description: Option<String>,
    pub transaction_id: Option<String>,
}

#[derive(Debug, Deserialize)]
pub struct {ConnectorName}FieldError {
    pub field: String,
    pub code: String,
    pub message: String,
}

impl Default for {ConnectorName}ErrorResponse {
    fn default() -> Self {
        Self::SimpleError {
            message: "Unknown error occurred".to_string(),
            code: Some("UNKNOWN_ERROR".to_string()),
        }
    }
}
```

### Pattern 3: Status Code Based Error Handling

Used when HTTP status codes provide error classification.

```rust
fn build_error_response(
    &self,
    res: Response,
    event_builder: Option<&mut ConnectorEvent>,
) -> CustomResult<ErrorResponse, errors::ConnectorError> {
    let response: {ConnectorName}ErrorResponse = if res.response.is_empty() {
        {ConnectorName}ErrorResponse::default()
    } else {
        res.response
            .parse_struct("ErrorResponse")
            .change_context(errors::ConnectorError::ResponseDeserializationFailed { context: Default::default() })?
    };

    if let Some(i) = event_builder {
        i.set_error_response_body(&response);
    }

    // Map HTTP status codes to attempt statuses
    let attempt_status = match res.status_code {
        400 => Some(common_enums::AttemptStatus::Failure), // Bad Request
        401 => Some(common_enums::AttemptStatus::AuthenticationFailed), // Unauthorized
        402 => Some(common_enums::AttemptStatus::Failure), // Payment Required
        403 => Some(common_enums::AttemptStatus::AuthorizationFailed), // Forbidden
        404 => Some(common_enums::AttemptStatus::Failure), // Not Found (transaction not found)
        409 => Some(common_enums::AttemptStatus::Failure), // Conflict (duplicate transaction)
        422 => Some(common_enums::AttemptStatus::Failure), // Unprocessable Entity
        429 => Some(common_enums::AttemptStatus::Pending), // Rate Limited (retry)
        500..=599 => Some(common_enums::AttemptStatus::Pending), // Server errors (retry)
        _ => None,
    };

    Ok(ErrorResponse {
        status_code: res.status_code,
        code: response.error_code.unwrap_or_default(),
        message: response.error_message.unwrap_or_default(),
        reason: response.error_description,
        attempt_status,
        connector_transaction_id: response.transaction_id,
        network_decline_code: None,
        network_advice_code: None,
        network_error_message: None,
    })
}
```

### Pattern 4: Psync-Specific Error Handling

Used when sync operations have special error scenarios.

```rust
impl TryFrom<ResponseRouterData<{ConnectorName}SyncResponse, ...>> for RouterDataV2<PSync, ...> {
    fn try_from(item: ResponseRouterData<{ConnectorName}SyncResponse, ...>) -> Result<Self, Self::Error> {
        let response = &item.response;
        let router_data = &item.router_data;

        // Handle sync-specific error cases
        if let Some(error_code) = &response.error_code {
            let attempt_status = match error_code.as_str() {
                "TRANSACTION_NOT_FOUND" => common_enums::AttemptStatus::Failure,
                "TRANSACTION_EXPIRED" => common_enums::AttemptStatus::Failure,
                "INSUFFICIENT_PERMISSIONS" => common_enums::AttemptStatus::AuthorizationFailed,
                "RATE_LIMIT_EXCEEDED" => common_enums::AttemptStatus::Pending, // Retry later
                "TEMPORARY_UNAVAILABLE" => common_enums::AttemptStatus::Pending, // Retry later
                _ => common_enums::AttemptStatus::Failure,
            };

            return Ok(Self {
                resource_common_data: PaymentFlowData {
                    status: attempt_status,
                    ..router_data.resource_common_data.clone()
                },
                response: Err(ErrorResponse {
                    status_code: item.http_code,
                    code: error_code.clone(),
                    message: response.error_message.clone().unwrap_or_default(),
                    reason: response.error_description.clone(),
                    attempt_status: Some(attempt_status),
                    connector_transaction_id: Some(response.id.clone()),
                    network_decline_code: None,
                    network_advice_code: None,
                    network_error_message: None,
                }),
                ..router_data.clone()
            });
        }

        // Continue with success case handling...
    }
}
```

### Pattern 5: Timeout and Network Error Handling

Used for handling network-related issues in sync operations.

```rust
fn handle_network_errors(
    res: Response,
    event_builder: Option<&mut ConnectorEvent>,
) -> CustomResult<ErrorResponse, errors::IntegrationError> {
    let error_response = if res.response.is_empty() {
        {ConnectorName}ErrorResponse::default()
    } else {
        // Try to parse error response, fallback to default
        res.response
            .parse_struct("ErrorResponse")
            .unwrap_or_else(|_| {ConnectorName}ErrorResponse::default())
    };

    if let Some(i) = event_builder {
        i.set_error_response_body(&error_response);
    }

    // Handle specific network error scenarios
    let (attempt_status, network_error_message) = match res.status_code {
        0 => {
            // Network timeout or connection failure
            (Some(common_enums::AttemptStatus::Pending), Some("Network connection timeout".to_string()))
        },
        408 => {
            // Request timeout
            (Some(common_enums::AttemptStatus::Pending), Some("Request timeout".to_string()))
        },
        502 | 503 | 504 => {
            // Gateway errors - usually temporary
            (Some(common_enums::AttemptStatus::Pending), Some("Gateway error - please retry".to_string()))
        },
        _ => (None, None),
    };

    Ok(ErrorResponse {
        status_code: res.status_code,
        code: error_response.error_code.unwrap_or("NETWORK_ERROR".to_string()),
        message: error_response.error_message.unwrap_or("Network error occurred".to_string()),
        reason: error_response.error_description,
        attempt_status,
        connector_transaction_id: error_response.transaction_id,
        network_decline_code: None,
        network_advice_code: None,
        network_error_message,
    })
}
```

### Pattern 6: Transaction State Error Handling

Used when sync operations reveal transaction state issues.

```rust
pub fn handle_transaction_state_errors(
    sync_response: &{ConnectorName}SyncResponse,
) -> Option<ErrorResponse> {
    // Check for transaction state issues
    match (&sync_response.status, &sync_response.transaction_state) {
        (status, Some(state)) if is_error_state(state) => {
            let (error_code, error_message, attempt_status) = match state.as_str() {
                "EXPIRED" => (
                    "TRANSACTION_EXPIRED",
                    "Transaction has expired and cannot be processed",
                    common_enums::AttemptStatus::Failure,
                ),
                "CANCELLED_BY_USER" => (
                    "USER_CANCELLED",
                    "Transaction was cancelled by the user",
                    common_enums::AttemptStatus::Voided,
                ),

## Placeholder Reference Guide

**🔄 UNIVERSAL REPLACEMENT SYSTEM FOR PSYNC FLOWS**

| Placeholder | Description | Example Values | When to Use |
|-------------|-------------|----------------|-------------|
| `{ConnectorName}` | Connector name in PascalCase | `Stripe`, `Adyen`, `PayPal`, `NewPayment` | **Always required** - Used in struct names |
| `{connector_name}` | Connector name in snake_case | `stripe`, `adyen`, `paypal`, `new_payment` | **Always required** - Used in config keys |
| `{AmountType}` | Amount type (same as auth flow) | `MinorUnit`, `StringMinorUnit`, `StringMajorUnit` | **Must match auth flow** |
| `{HttpMethod}` | HTTP method for sync requests | `Get`, `Post` | **Choose based on API**: GET for simple status, POST for complex queries |
| `{content_type}` | Request content type (POST only) | `"application/json"`, `"application/x-www-form-urlencoded"` | **POST requests only** |
| `{psync_endpoint}` | Sync API endpoint path | `"v1/payments/{id}/status"`, `"transaction-inquiry"`, `"sync"` | **From API docs** |
| `{auth_type}` | Authentication type | `HeaderKey`, `SignatureKey`, `BodyKey` | **Same as auth flow** |
| `{url_pattern}` | URL construction pattern | `"rest_with_id"`, `"query_parameter"`, `"hierarchical"` | **Based on API style** |

### HTTP Method Selection Guide

Choose the right HTTP method based on your connector's API:

| API Characteristics | HTTP Method | When to Use |
|-------------------|-------------|-------------|
| Simple status endpoint with transaction ID in URL | `Get` | Most RESTful APIs (Checkout, Volt, Xendit) |
| Status query with no sensitive parameters | `Get` | Simple payment gateways |
| Complex query parameters required | `Post` | Enterprise APIs (Fiserv, Paytm) |
| Authentication must be in request body | `Post` | Legacy APIs (Authorizedotnet) |
| GraphQL-based queries | `Post` | Modern graph APIs (Braintree) |

### Psync Endpoint Selection Guide

Choose the right endpoint pattern based on your connector's API:

| API Style | Endpoint Pattern | Example |
|-----------|------------------|---------|
| RESTful status | `"v1/payments/{id}/status"` | Most modern APIs |
| RESTful resource | `"v1/payments/{id}"` | REST-compliant APIs |
| Dedicated inquiry | `"v1/transaction-inquiry"` | Enterprise APIs |
| Status service | `"v1/status"` | Service-oriented APIs |
| Same as auth | `""` (empty, uses base URL) | Single-endpoint APIs |

### Real-World Examples

**Example 1: Simple GET API (Checkout-style)**
```bash
{ConnectorName} → MyPayment
{connector_name} → my_payment
{AmountType} → MinorUnit
{HttpMethod} → Get
{psync_endpoint} → "payments/{id}"
{auth_type} → HeaderKey
URL Pattern: {base_url}/payments/{transaction_id}
```

**Example 2: Complex POST API (Fiserv-style)**
```bash
{ConnectorName} → EnterprisePay
{connector_name} → enterprise_pay
{AmountType} → FloatMajorUnit
{HttpMethod} → Post
{content_type} → "application/json"
{psync_endpoint} → "ch/payments/v1/transaction-inquiry"
{auth_type} → SignatureKey
URL Pattern: {base_url}/ch/payments/v1/transaction-inquiry
```

**Example 3: Status Endpoint API (Bluecode-style)**
```bash
{ConnectorName} → StatusPay
{connector_name} → status_pay
{AmountType} → FloatMajorUnit
{HttpMethod} → Get
{psync_endpoint} → "api/v1/order/{id}/status"
{auth_type} → HeaderKey
URL Pattern: {base_url}/api/v1/order/{transaction_id}/status
```

## Best Practices

1. **HTTP Method Selection**: Use GET for simple status queries, POST for complex queries or when authentication requires request body
2. **Transaction ID Validation**: Always validate the presence of `connector_transaction_id` before building sync requests
3. **URL Construction**: Follow RESTful principles when possible, use path parameters for resource identification
4. **Status Mapping (CRITICAL)**:
   - **Always map status from connector's operation_result or equivalent field** - Never assume status based on HTTP code alone
   - **Use From trait implementation** - Implement the From trait to map connector status enum to AttemptStatus
   - **Use explicit match statements** - When From trait isn't suitable, use explicit match statements for clarity
   - Create comprehensive status mapping that covers all possible connector statuses
5. **Field Mapping (CRITICAL)**:
   - **Never hardcode fields to None** - Always map actual fields from connector response
   - **Show clean response transformers** - Build response transformers that properly extract and map all available fields
   - Map connector_response_reference_id, network_txn_id, and other fields when available
6. **Error Handling**: Implement robust error handling for network issues, timeouts, and business logic errors
7. **Authentication Consistency**: Use the same authentication method as authorization flow
8. **Response Processing**: Handle both success and error responses gracefully
9. **Idempotency**: Ensure sync operations are idempotent and can be safely retried
10. **Performance**: Keep sync operations lightweight and fast for real-time status checking
11. **Documentation**: Document all status codes, error codes, and special sync requirements

### Common Pitfalls to Avoid

- **Missing Transaction ID**: Always check for `connector_transaction_id` before proceeding
- **Wrong HTTP Method**: Don't use POST for simple status queries unless required by API
- **Incomplete Status Mapping**: Map all possible connector statuses to appropriate `AttemptStatus` values
- **Status from HTTP Code**: NEVER assume status based on HTTP code alone - always map from connector's operation_result or status field
- **Hardcoded None Fields**: NEVER hardcode response fields to None - always map actual values from connector response
- **Authentication Mismatch**: Ensure sync uses same auth method as other flows
- **URL Encoding**: Properly encode special characters in transaction IDs for URL construction
- **Error Response Parsing**: Handle both structured and unstructured error responses
- **Timeout Handling**: Implement appropriate timeout handling for sync operations
- **Rate Limiting**: Respect connector rate limits for sync operations
