Payment encryption: adds or replaces one key entry.
PUT
/api/merchants/{id}/payment-encryption-bindings/{providerName}/keys/{ksi}
deprecated
Requires: Merchants.Merchants.Update, merchant scope.
A key entry verb rather than a whole-binding save, so rotating one device family's key does not require sending the provider credentials back. The binding must already exist. Omitting `keyReference` keeps the stored one. `createdAtUtc`, `statusChangedAtUtc` and `isKeyReferenceConfigured` are server-owned and ignored on the body. An omitted `status` is stored as `Active` on a new entry and keeps the stored status on a replace, so correcting a retired key's label cannot return it to service: use the reactivate endpoint for that. Optionally send `If-Match: "<concurrencyStamp>"`.
Signed in, you can send this request to your own sandbox merchant from the console and read the answer. Sign in to try it.
Example request
Every block below sends the same request. Replace {{BASE_URL}} with the address of the API you are calling and {{API_KEY}} with your own key.
The request body is a PaymentEncryptionKeyEntry. See the Request body section below for its fields.
Parameters
| Name | In | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
id
required |
path | string (uuid) | The merchant id. |
providerName
required |
path | string | The provider whose binding holds the key table. |
ksi
required |
path | string | The key serial identifier to write (authoritative; any KSI on the body is ignored). |
suppressNulls
required |
query | boolean | If true, omit properties with null values. |
Request body
application/json
, required
| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
ksi
required |
string | The key serial identifier: six to ten significant hex characters, stored upper-case with leading `F` padding stripped. Unique within a binding. Conditional: When Ksi is not empty. nullable |
label
required |
string | An operator-facing label for this key, such as the device family it was injected into. Shown wherever the key reference itself must not be. nullablemax length 100 |
scheme
required |
all of PaymentEncryptionScheme | Which encryption scheme the terminals under this key produce. Required: When Status != Deactivated. nullable |
dukptMode
required |
all of PaymentEncryptionDukptMode | The DUKPT key derivation algorithm this key uses. nullable |
aesWorkingKeyType
required |
string | The AES working-key type, required when `dukptMode` is `Aes` and meaningless otherwise. A provider token value rather than an enum, because the vocabulary belongs to the vendor's command set. Required: When DukptMode == Aes. Conditional: When DukptMode is not null and DukptMode != Aes. nullablemax length 16 |
keyReference
required |
string | The HSM key reference: a storage-table slot or a wrapped key block. <b>Always stored encrypted, and never returned on a read that leaves the server.</b> nullablemax length 1024 |
isKeyReferenceConfigured
required |
boolean | Whether a key reference is stored, set on reads so an operator can tell a configured key from an empty one without the reference ever being sent. Server-owned: the save paths ignore whatever arrives here. nullable |
majorKey
required |
string | The major key the reference is stored under, in the provider's own token vocabulary. Null leaves the provider's default in force. nullablemax length 16 |
onGuardExtendedEncryption
required |
boolean | On-Guard extended encryption, when the device family uses it. Meaningful only when `scheme` is `OnGuard`. Conditional: When Scheme is not null and Scheme != OnGuard. nullable |
onGuardEndingPanDigitsEncrypted
required |
boolean | Whether the device family encrypts the ending PAN digits. Meaningful only for `OnGuard`. Conditional: When Scheme is not null and Scheme != OnGuard. nullable |
onGuardClearPanDigits
required |
integer (int32) | How many leading PAN digits the device family leaves in the clear. Meaningful only for `OnGuard`. Conditional: When Scheme is not null and Scheme != OnGuard. Conditional: When OnGuardClearPanDigits is not null. Range: 0 to 6. nullable |
status
required |
all of PaymentEncryptionKeyEntryStatus | Whether the entry may be matched. Null reads as `Deactivated`: an entry whose status nobody set has not been through the boarding step that activates it, and matching it would use a key the platform cannot confirm is live. nullable |
requireMac
required |
boolean | Reserved: whether the device family attaches a MAC that should be verified during decryption. nullable |
createdAtUtc
required |
string (date-time) | When the entry was created, in UTC. nullable |
statusChangedAtUtc
required |
string (date-time) | When `status` last changed, in UTC. Separate from the audit log because it is shown on the key table itself, where an operator decides whether a key is still in rotation. nullable |

default The request failed. The body carries the standard error envelope: a machine-readable `error.code`, a human-readable `error.message`, and `error.validationErrors` when the failure was a validation rejection. See the error-code reference in this document's description for the values `error.code` can take.

429 The request was refused because a rate limit was exceeded, or because something a later retry can clear stopped it. A rate limit refusal carries an `application/problem+json` body: wait at least the interval `Retry-After` names before retrying, then back off. Limits are tuned per deployment, so read the allowance from the response headers rather than assuming a fixed ceiling. Any other refusal carries the standard error envelope as `application/json`, and its `error.code` names the cause.
