API available for use in some countries

It is also necessary to check the payment methods available in each country, check the updated list on the Mercado Pago website.

To use this API, you need a Mercado Pago account. Access [https://www.mercadopago.com.br/hub/registration/landing][link_mercado_pago_site]{:target=”_blank”} to log in or create an account if you don’t already have one.

Setting up a Profile

In the menu Tools > API you can create API profiles for use in your projects. This way, you will only need to provide your credentials once to use the API in your project.

See how to obtain the credentials needed to configure the profile.

When deploying your project, you will need to configure the API credentials in Prod, by accessing the API menu.

Payment configuration using Mercado Pago API

To create the profile, we must add the following information:

Name

Defines the name to identify the API profile. This name is unique and will be used to reference the API profile in your project’s applications.

Mode

The mode defines the availability of the Profile in Scriptcase.

  • Public - Users from all projects will be able to view and use the created profile.

  • Project - Users will be able to view and use the profile in the project where it was configured.

  • User - Only the user who created the profile will be able to view and use it in the applications.

Regardless of the mode used for creation, profiles can only be edited by users with administrator access in the project. See how to define user access levels in Scriptcase.

Gateway

Defines the API that will be used to create the profile.

Auth Token

Enter the Access Token generated in the Mercado Pago settings. If you do not have this information, see our article on how to obtain Mercado Pago credentials.

It is possible to offer payment by Card, PIX, Mercado Pago Wallet, bank slip and payment at lottery outlets

// Calling the API directly in the macro.

$token = 'public_token';

$settings = array('settings' => ['gateway' => 'mercadopago', 'token' => $token] );

$payment = sc_call_api('', $settings);

// Passing the values ​​to the methods: values, description, and payment type.

$payment->transaction_amount = 0.01;

$payment->description = "test";

$payment->payment_method_id = "pix";

// Passing the customer information.

// The "type" parameter can be the email or the CPF (Brazilian tax identification number).

// "type" => "CPF"
// "type" => "email"
// The email, first_name, and last_name parameters cannot be the same as the account administrator's.

$payment->payer = array(

"first_name" => "Netmake",
"last_name" => "Scriptcase",
"identification" => array(

"type" => "email",
