Opens a listen session for the caller's merchant and returns its signing secret, once.

POST /api/notifications/listen-sessions deprecated

Requires: Notifications.ListenSessions.Listen, merchant scope.

The secret is not recoverable afterwards: only a hash of it is stored. Losing it means opening a new session.

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 CreateListenSessionInput. See the Request body section below for its fields.

Parameters

Name	In	Type	Description
`suppressNulls` required	query	boolean	If true, omit properties with null values.

Request body

application/json , required

Field	Type	Description
`eventTypes` required	array of string	Event types to stage. Empty means every event type the caller may see, resolved once at creation and then fixed for the session's lifetime. nullable
`label` required	string	Optional human label, so an operator's list reads sensibly. nullablemax length 128
`ttlMinutes` required	integer (int32)	Requested session lifetime in minutes, renewed by poll activity. Clamped server-side; a value outside the supported range is corrected, not refused. nullable

This request body has no documented fields.

Responses

200 The session was opened. The body carries the signing secret, once.

Body: ListenSessionCreatedDto Each item has these fields.

Field	Type	Description
`id` required	string (uuid)	The session id, used on the poll, sample and end routes.
`signingSecret` required	string	The signing secret, shown exactly once. nullable
`merchantId` required	string (uuid)	The merchant the session is scoped to.
`eventTypes` required	array of string	The resolved event types the session stages. nullable
`expiresAtUtc` required	string (date-time)	When the session expires unless polling renews it.
`ttlMinutes` required	integer (int32)	The clamped session lifetime, in minutes, that each poll renews by.

This response has no documented body fields.

403 The caller has no merchant context, so there is no single merchant to scope a session to.

Body: Each item has these fields.

Field	Type	Description

This response has no body.

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.

Body: RemoteServiceErrorResponse Each item has these fields.

Field	Type	Description
`error` required	RemoteServiceErrorInfo

This response has no documented body fields.

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.

Body: RemoteServiceErrorResponse Each item has these fields.

Field	Type	Description
`error` required	RemoteServiceErrorInfo

This response has no documented body fields.

Errors

A failed request returns the platform error envelope. The error reference lists every value error.code can carry and shows the four response shapes.
