GlobalCharge Class

Properties   Methods   Events   Config Settings   Errors  

The GlobalCharge class is used to authorize credit card transactions with the Global Payments system, using the Global Transport Direct API. This class supports Direct Marketing, e-Commerce, Retail, and Restaurant environments, and allows for simple, direct, secure communication to the Global Transport TLS/SSL gateway through a standard Internet connection. This class can be integrated into web pages or stand-alone Point Of Sale applications. Because all TLS/SSL communications are handled inside the class, any application or web page can be deployed without the need for expensive dedicated TLS/SSL servers.

Syntax

class dpaymentssdk.GlobalCharge

Remarks

First, set the user_id and password with your login information. If you're submitting test transactions and are using a test account, set the server to the certification URL ("https://certapia.globalpay.com").

After the merchant information is setup, you may enter transaction data. When the credit card's card_entry_data_source is Manually Entered, the merchant should fill the card_number, card_exp_month, and card_exp_year properties. Address Verification Service (AVS) data may be sent by filling the customer_address and customer_zip properties. For swiped transactions (Retail and Restaurant industries) the card_entry_data_source should be set to edsMagneticStripe and, the card_magnetic_stripe property should be filled with the trackdata read from the card. In addition, the transaction_amount should be set with the total amount for the transaction.

Now simply call the sale or auth_only method to send the authorization to the Global Transport server.

The status of the authorization request will be stored in the response_code property, with human-readable text appearing in the response_text property. There are several other Response properties which will contain data that should be logged.

You may also use this class to capture previously made auth_only transactions, void (void_transaction), refund, and reverse transactions, and validate address data without charging the card using avs_only.

Once a transaction request is approved, the transaction is added to the current batch on the Global Transport server, and the money in the customer's account is blocked and tagged for the merchant. The transaction must go through Settlement in order for the blocked money to be transferred to the merchant's account.

If your Global Transport account is setup with the Host Auto Settle feature, you need take no further action. The Global Transport system will close the current open batch at a designated time each day. This means that there is no end of day batch processing required from the merchant.

If your account is not set up to automatically settle transactions at the end of the day, then at the end of the day you will need to use the GlobalBatchMgr class to capture the transactions in the batch.

Default Value

FALSE

Remarks

Determines whether data set to the card_number or card_magnetic_stripe fields is validated.

By default, when the card_number or card_magnetic_stripe fields are set, the value will be validated and normalized. For instance, "4444-33332222 1111" will be normalized as "4444333322221111" and card_magnetic_stripe data will be parsed for the track specified by card_entry_data_source. However, any other non-numerical data entered will cause an exception to be thrown. It may be useful in some gateways to send other data in the card_number or card_magnetic_stripe fields, and this can be accomplished by setting IsEncrypted to true. However, please note that in doing so automatic calculation of the card_type may be affected, and the card number will not be verified.

card_magnetic_stripe Property

This includes everything after but not including the start sentinel (% or ;) and up to but not including the end sentinel (?) and LRC check character. You may only set this property with track 1 or track 2 data, and may not pass both. Use the card_entry_data_source property to indicate which track you are sending.

The following example shows how to set the card_magnetic_stripe and card_entry_data_source properties if the data read off the card is "%B4788250000028291^TSYS^05121015432112345678?;4788250000028291=05121015432112345678?"

class.CardMagneticStripe = "B4788250000028291^TSYS^05121015432112345678" class.CardEntryDataSource = edsTrack1 or class.CardMagneticStripe = "4788250000028291=05121015432112345678" class.CardEntryDataSource = edsTrack2

22 (cstBCFKSBlob)The certificate store is a string (binary or Base64-encoded) representing a certificate store in BCFKS (Bouncy Castle FIPS Key Store) format.

Note: This store type is only available in Java and .NET.

23 (cstPKCS11)The certificate is present on a physical security key accessible via a PKCS#11 interface.

To use a security key, the necessary data must first be collected using the CertMgr class. The list_store_certificates method may be called after setting cert_store_type to cstPKCS11, cert_store_password to the PIN, and cert_store to the full path of the PKCS#11 DLL. The certificate information returned in the on_cert_list event's CertEncoded parameter may be saved for later use.

When using a certificate, pass the previously saved security key information as the ssl_cert_store and set ssl_cert_store_password to the PIN.

Code Example. SSH Authentication with Security Key: certmgr.CertStoreType = CertStoreTypes.cstPKCS11; certmgr.OnCertList += (s, e) => { secKeyBlob = e.CertEncoded; }; certmgr.CertStore = @"C:\Program Files\OpenSC Project\OpenSC\pkcs11\opensc-pkcs11.dll"; certmgr.CertStorePassword = "123456"; //PIN certmgr.ListStoreCertificates(); sftp.SSHCert = new Certificate(CertStoreTypes.cstPKCS11, secKeyBlob, "123456", "*"); sftp.SSHUser = "test"; sftp.SSHLogon("myhost", 22);

99 (cstAuto)The store type is automatically detected from the input data. This setting may be used with both public and private keys and can detect any of the supported formats automatically.

ssl_cert_subject Property

This is the subject of the certificate used for client authentication.

Syntax

def get_ssl_cert_subject() -> str: ...
def set_ssl_cert_subject(value: str) -> None: ...

ssl_cert_subject = property(get_ssl_cert_subject, set_ssl_cert_subject)

Default Value

""

Remarks

This is the subject of the certificate used for client authentication.

This property must be set after all other certificate properties are set. When this property is set, a search is performed in the current certificate store to locate a certificate with a matching subject.

If a matching certificate is found, the property is set to the full subject of the matching certificate.

If an exact match is not found, the store is searched for subjects containing the value of the property.

If a match is still not found, the property is set to an empty string, and no certificate is selected.

The special value "*" picks a random certificate in the certificate store.

The certificate subject is a comma-separated list of distinguished name fields and values. For instance, "CN=www.server.com, OU=test, C=US, E=support@nsoftware.com". Common fields and their meanings are as follows:

FieldMeaning
CNCommon Name. This is commonly a hostname like www.server.com.
OOrganization
OUOrganizational Unit
LLocality
SState
CCountry
EEmail Address

If a field value contains a comma, it must be quoted.

ssl_provider Property

This specifies the SSL/TLS implementation to use.

Syntax

def get_ssl_provider() -> int: ...
def set_ssl_provider(value: int) -> None: ...

ssl_provider = property(get_ssl_provider, set_ssl_provider)

Default Value

0

Remarks

This property specifies the SSL/TLS implementation to use. In most cases the default value of 0 (Automatic) is recommended and should not be changed. When set to 0 (Automatic) the class will select whether to use the platform implementation or the internal implementation depending on the operating system as well as the TLS version being used.

Possible values are:

0 (sslpAutomatic - default)Automatically selects the appropriate implementation.
1 (sslpPlatform) Uses the platform/system implementation.
2 (sslpInternal) Uses the internal implementation.
Additional Notes

In most cases using the default value (Automatic) is recommended. The class will select a provider depending on the current platform.

When Automatic is selected, on Windows the class will use the platform implementation. On Linux/macOS the class will use the internal implementation. When TLS 1.3 is enabled via SSLEnabledProtocols the internal implementation is used on all platforms.

ssl_server_cert_encoded Property

This is the certificate (PEM/Base64 encoded).

Syntax

def get_ssl_server_cert_encoded() -> bytes: ...

ssl_server_cert_encoded = property(get_ssl_server_cert_encoded, None)

Default Value

""

Remarks

This is the certificate (PEM/Base64 encoded). This property is used to assign a specific certificate. The ssl_server_cert_store and ssl_server_cert_subject properties also may be used to specify a certificate.

When ssl_server_cert_encoded is set, a search is initiated in the current ssl_server_cert_store for the private key of the certificate. If the key is found, ssl_server_cert_subject is updated to reflect the full subject of the selected certificate; otherwise, ssl_server_cert_subject is set to an empty string.

This property is read-only.

tax_amount Property

Required for the lowest rate on Commercial/Purchasing card (Level 2) transactions.

Syntax

def get_tax_amount() -> str: ...
def set_tax_amount(value: str) -> None: ...

tax_amount = property(get_tax_amount, set_tax_amount)

Default Value

""

Remarks

This property may be up to 9 characters, in the format "DDDDDD.CC", and be left-justified with no fill. (eg: "1.99"). Note that the tax_amount should be included in the total transaction_amount. For example, if the sale price of the transaction is $10.00, and the tax on the transaction is $0.60 (for a grand total of $10.60), the transaction_amount property should contain "10.60" and the tax_amount property should contain "0.60".

timeout Property

A timeout for the class.

Syntax

def get_timeout() -> int: ...
def set_timeout(value: int) -> None: ...

timeout = property(get_timeout, set_timeout)

Default Value

60

Remarks

If the timeout property is set to 0, all operations will run uninterrupted until successful completion or an error condition is encountered.

If timeout is set to a positive value, the class will wait for the operation to complete before returning control.

The class will use do_events to enter an efficient wait loop during any potential waiting period, making sure that all system events are processed immediately as they arrive. This ensures that the host application does not "freeze" and remains responsive.

If timeout expires, and the operation is not yet complete, the class fails with an error.

Please note that by default, all timeouts are inactivity timeouts, i.e. the timeout period is extended by timeout seconds when any amount of data is successfully sent or received.

The default value for the timeout property is 60 seconds.

transaction_amount Property

Amount to be charged from (or refunded to) the card.

Syntax

def get_transaction_amount() -> str: ...
def set_transaction_amount(value: str) -> None: ...

transaction_amount = property(get_transaction_amount, set_transaction_amount)

Default Value

""

Remarks

This is required for sale, auth_only, refund, and force transactions. It is optional or ignored for all others. The transaction amount may be up to 11 characters in length, and must be in the format "DDDDDDDD.CC", and be left-justified with no fill (eg: "1.99"). This must always be a positive, non-zero value.

Note that the transaction_amount should include any gratuity_amount and/or tax_amount. For example, if the sale price of the transaction is $10.00, and the tip on the transaction is $3.00 (for a grand total of $13.00), the transaction_amount property should contain "13.00" and the gratuity_amount property should contain "3.00".

user_id Property

UserId for authentication with the Global Payments Server .

Syntax

def get_user_id() -> str: ...
def set_user_id(value: str) -> None: ...

user_id = property(get_user_id, set_user_id)

Default Value

""

Remarks

The user_id will be supplied to you by Global Payments.

auth_only Method

Sends an AuthOnly transaction to the host.

Syntax

def auth_only() -> None: ...

Remarks

An Auth Only transaction is used to verify and reserve the cardholder's open-to-buy funds available at that time. This transaction is NOT added to the open batch. In order to settle (be paid) for this transaction, the merchant must run a capture transaction using the original response_pn_ref obtained during this Auth Only transaction. Only then will the transaction be added to the open batch. Typically any funds blocked with a Sale or Auth Only transaction are reserved for approximately seven (7) to ten (10) days. This may vary from issuer to issuer. Sample transactions follow.

AuthOnly transaction with Track 1 data: class.CardEntryDataSource = edsMagneticStripe class.CardMagneticStripe = "5499990123456781=15125025432198712345" class.TransactionAmount = "1.00" class.AuthOnly() Manually keyed AuthOnly transaction: class.CardEntryDataSource = edsManuallyEntered class.CardNumber = "4444333322221111" class.CardExpMonth = 1 class.CardExpYear = 2010 class.TransactionAmount = "1.00" class.AuthOnly()

avs_only Method

Performs AVS and CVV card validation checks without actually making a transaction.

Syntax

def avs_only() -> None: ...

Remarks

Please note that an avs_only transaction will not place a hold on any funds and will not reduce the cardholder's limit to buy. Also, an avs_only transaction will not place a transaction in the batch and no money will be transferred from the cardholder's account to the merchant's account. An AVS Only transaction should be used if the amount of the transaction is unknown but the merchant would like to perform validation that the card is good and the address matches what is on file at the issuer.

Once the amount of the transaction is known, process either a new sale transaction, a repeat_sale using the PNRef returned in the AVS-Only response, or a auth_only and then a capture. Do not process a force or capture to "finalize" an avs_only transaction.

Note: The avs_only transaction is not supported in the eCommerce market.

balance_inquiry Method

A Credit Card Balance Inquiry transaction displays the remaining balance on a pre-paid credit card.

Syntax

def balance_inquiry() -> None: ...

Remarks

The only properties required for this transaction are the card_number, card_exp_month, and card_exp_year, however you may submit the customer_address and customer_zip for Address Validation, and the card_cvv_data property for CVV checking if so desired.

The balance of the prepaid card will be stored in response_balance. If the card specified is not a pre-paid credit card, the response_balance will either be empty or contain the text "BALANCE NOT AVAILABLE".

capture Method

Sends a capture transaction to the Global Payments Server.

Syntax

def capture(pn_ref: str) -> None: ...

Remarks

Capture (Post Auth Capture) transactions are typically used when a merchant has previously utilized the auth_only method. A Capture transaction adds the transaction to the current open batch. To process a capture, call capture with the PNRef parameter set to the PNRef returned in response from the transaction for which you wish to capture and set the transaction_amount to the amount you wish to capture. You may issue a partial capture for any value up to the original authorized amount. For example: Full Capture: class.TransactionAmount = "15.00"; // Original authorization was for $15.00, so this is a full capture class.Capture("1233513541"); // "1233513541" is the PNRef from the original transaction Partial Capture: class.TransactionAmount = "10.00"; // Original authorization was for $15.00, so this is a partial capture class.Capture("1233513541"); // PNRef from the original authorization response

Note: Only one capture can be processed per auth_only. To process a second capture on an auth_only you must first use void_transaction to Void the first capture.

config Method

Sets or retrieves a configuration setting.

Syntax

def config(configuration_string: str) -> str: ...

Remarks

config is a generic method available in every class. It is used to set and retrieve configuration settings for the class.

These settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the class, access to these internal properties is provided through the config method.

To set a configuration setting named PROPERTY, you must call Config("PROPERTY=VALUE"), where VALUE is the value of the setting expressed as a string. For boolean values, use the strings "True", "False", "0", "1", "Yes", or "No" (case does not matter).

To read (query) the value of a configuration setting, you must call Config("PROPERTY"). The value will be returned as a string.

credit Method

Credits a cardholder's account.

Syntax

def credit() -> None: ...

Remarks

This transaction adds funds to the cardholder's account. This can be performed any time and in any batch, and unlike the refund method, is not based on a previous transaction.

Manually keyed credit: class.CardNumber = "4444333322221111" class.CardExpMonth = 1 class.CardExpYear = 2015 class.CardEntryDataSource = edsManuallyEntered class.TransactionAmount = "1.00" 'credits $1.00 class.Credit()

force Method

Sends a Voice Authorization (Force) transaction to the Global Payments Server.

Syntax

def force(approval_code: str) -> None: ...

Remarks

Force transactions are typically used when a customer's card was declined, but the merchant was able to call the issuer and receive a voice authorization code. The force method will add the transaction into the current open batch. The transaction_amount, card, and all other data must match exactly to the information given over the phone to receive the voice authorization, and the ApprovalCode parameter must be set with the authorization code you received. For example class.TransactionAmount = "1.00"; class.Force("123456"); // value from voice auth or previous AuthOnly trans

interrupt Method

Interrupt the current method.

Syntax

def interrupt() -> None: ...

Remarks

If there is no method in progress, interrupt simply returns, doing nothing.

refund Method

Refunds a previous transaction.

Syntax

def refund(pn_ref: str) -> None: ...

Remarks

This method issues a refund based on a previously authorized and settled transaction (Either a sale, capture, or force). A transaction can only be refunded if it exists in a previous batch. (If the transaction is in the current open batch, use void_transaction instead). To process a refund, call refund with the PNRef parameter set to the PNRef returned in response from the transaction for which you wish to issue a refund and set the transaction_amount to the amount you wish to refund. You may issue a partial refund for any value up to the original sale amount. For example:

Full Refund: class.TransactionAmount = "25.00"; // Original transaction was for $25.00, so this is a full refund class.Refund("123456"); // "123456" is the PNRef from the original transaction Partial Refund: class.TransactionAmount = "15.00"; // Original transaction was for $25.00, so this is a partial refund class.Refund("123456"); // "123456" is the PNRef from the original transaction

If you do not know the PNRef from the original transaction, use credit instead.

Note: Partial refunds are supported regardless of the time and date or batch status (open or closed). To perform a partial refunds, pass any transaction_amount that is less than the original transaction amount to the refund transaction as per the example above.

repeat_sale Method

Used to submit a recurring transaction.

Syntax

def repeat_sale(pn_ref: str) -> None: ...

Remarks

The repeat_sale transaction can be used by merchants to enable simplified re-use of cards previously used by a customer, as well as for recurring transactions. By using the Global Transport Gateway's repeat_sale transaction instead of a new sale transaction, sensitive cardholder data such as the card number and expiration date do not have to be stored locally by the merchant, which reduces the likelihood of that cardholder data being compromised. Because all sensitive cardholder data is stored by Global Payments, the merchant only needs to store PNRef numbers.

Keep in mind that the recurring logic (how often the transactions are processed, the length of contract, etc.) must be managed by the merchant and is not a function of the RepeatSale transaction feature of the Global Transport Gateway. Please note that PNRef numbers and cardholder data are only stored for 24 months from the date of the last activity on the Global Transport Gateway.

In order to perform a RepeatSale transaction, an initial sale (or Partial Authorization) transaction must occur first. Once the original transaction is processed, the merchant should store the PNRef number that is returned in the transaction response. The merchant should always use the PNRef number of the most recent repeat_sale transaction response for future re-use or recurring payments. An example is shown below: class.UserId = "4dpayments_ecom"; class.Password = "Passw0rd"; class.Card.Number = "4003000123456781"; class.Card.ExpMonth = 12; class.Card.ExpYear = 15; class.TransactionAmount = "8.00"; class.InvoiceNumber = "1234567890"; class.Sale("564474"); String pnref = class.Response.PNRef; class.Reset(); class.UserId = "4dpayments_ecom"; class.Password = "Passw0rd"; class.TransactionAmount = "8.00"; class.InvoiceNumber = "1234567890"; class.RepeatSale(pnref);

reset Method

Clears all properties to their default values.

Syntax

def reset() -> None: ...

Remarks

This method clears all properties to their default values.

reverse Method

Reverses a transaction in the current batch.

Syntax

def reverse(pn_ref: str) -> None: ...

Remarks

A credit card Reversal transaction removes an unsettled, previously-submitted transaction. The PNRef parameter should be set to the PNRef from the transaction response of the transaction you wish to cancel.

A reverse transaction differs from a void_transaction in one key way. A standard credit card sale puts a hold on the cardholder's open-to-buy funds until the batch is settled. If submitting a void_transaction, no money changes hands but a hold on the funds remains for a certain amount of time (usually around 7 days, depending on the issuing bank). A reverse transaction releases the hold on the funds, and makes the funds available again immediately.

When two reverse requests for the same transaction are submitted, a Reversal only occurs on the first transaction. If a Reversal request is submitted on a transaction which has already been reversed, Global Transport returns a "NO TRANS FOUND" message in the response. Some standard card issuers may not support a Reversal. In this case, Global Transport returns a "DECLINE" response message. In this case, you should void it with the void_transaction method instead.

sale Method

Sends a Sale transaction to the host.

Syntax

def sale() -> None: ...

Remarks

A basic Sale transaction. This transaction decrements the cardholder's open-to-buy funds for the sale amount. This transaction is automatically added to the current open batch, and will be settled after the current batch is settled. The batch settlement may be set up to occur automatically, or you can control when the batch settles with the GlobalBatchMgr class. Sample transactions follow.

Sale transaction with Track 1 data: class.CardEntryDataSource = edsMagneticStripe class.CardMagneticStripe = "5499990123456781=15125025432198712345" class.TransactionAmount = "1.00" class.Sale() Manually keyed Sale transaction: class.CardEntryDataSource = edsManuallyEntered class.CardNumber = "4444333322221111" class.CardExpMonth = 1 class.CardExpYear = 2015 class.TransactionAmount = "1.00" class.Sale()

tip_adjustment Method

This methods adds a tip to the original sale transaction.

Syntax

def tip_adjustment(pn_ref: str, gratuity_amount: str) -> None: ...

Remarks

To add a tip to a transaction simply call tip_adjustment with the PNRef parameter set to the PNRef of the transaction you wish to adjust, and the GratuityAmount to the amount you wish to add.

void_transaction Method

Voids a transaction in the current batch.

Syntax

def void_transaction(pn_ref: str) -> None: ...

Remarks

A Void removes transactions from an open batch prior to settlement, to correct same-day transaction mistakes. A transaction can only be voided if it exists in the current open batch. To do so, call void_transaction with the PNRef parameter set to the PNRef of the original transaction. This only works for transactions that are still in the current open batch. If the batch that contained the target transaction has already been settled, you must use the refund or credit methods instead.

Note that since AuthOnly transactions are not added to the current batch, they cannot be voided. Examples follow.

class.CardNumber = "4444333322221111" class.CardExpMonth = 1 class.CardExpYear = 2015 class.TransactionAmount = "1.00" class.Sale() refNumToVoid = class.ResponsePNRef ... more sale transactions ... 'All that's needed for a void: class.VoidTransaction(refNumToVoid)

on_error Event

Fired when information is available about errors during data delivery.

Syntax

class GlobalChargeErrorEventParams(object):
  @property
  def error_code() -> int: ...

  @property
  def description() -> str: ...

# In class GlobalCharge:
@property
def on_error() -> Callable[[GlobalChargeErrorEventParams], None]: ...
@on_error.setter
def on_error(event_hook: Callable[[GlobalChargeErrorEventParams], None]) -> None: ...

Remarks

The on_error event is fired in case of exceptional conditions during message processing. Normally the class fails with an error.

The ErrorCode parameter contains an error code, and the Description parameter contains a textual description of the error. For a list of valid error codes and their descriptions, please refer to the Error Codes section.

on_ssl_server_authentication Event

Fired after the server presents its certificate to the client.

Syntax

class GlobalChargeSSLServerAuthenticationEventParams(object):
  @property
  def cert_encoded() -> bytes: ...

  @property
  def cert_subject() -> str: ...

  @property
  def cert_issuer() -> str: ...

  @property
  def status() -> str: ...

  @property
  def accept() -> bool: ...
  @accept.setter
  def accept(value) -> None: ...

# In class GlobalCharge:
@property
def on_ssl_server_authentication() -> Callable[[GlobalChargeSSLServerAuthenticationEventParams], None]: ...
@on_ssl_server_authentication.setter
def on_ssl_server_authentication(event_hook: Callable[[GlobalChargeSSLServerAuthenticationEventParams], None]) -> None: ...

Remarks

During this event, the client can decide whether or not to continue with the connection process. The Accept parameter is a recommendation on whether to continue or close the connection. This is just a suggestion: application software must use its own logic to determine whether or not to continue.

When Accept is False, Status shows why the verification failed (otherwise, Status contains the string OK). If it is decided to continue, you can override and accept the certificate by setting the Accept parameter to True.

on_ssl_status Event

Fired when secure connection progress messages are available.

Syntax

class GlobalChargeSSLStatusEventParams(object):
  @property
  def message() -> str: ...

# In class GlobalCharge:
@property
def on_ssl_status() -> Callable[[GlobalChargeSSLStatusEventParams], None]: ...
@on_ssl_status.setter
def on_ssl_status(event_hook: Callable[[GlobalChargeSSLStatusEventParams], None]) -> None: ...

Remarks

The event is fired for informational and logging purposes only. This event tracks the progress of the connection.

on_status Event

Shows the progress of the Global Payments connection.

Syntax

class GlobalChargeStatusEventParams(object):
  @property
  def message() -> str: ...

# In class GlobalCharge:
@property
def on_status() -> Callable[[GlobalChargeStatusEventParams], None]: ...
@on_status.setter
def on_status(event_hook: Callable[[GlobalChargeStatusEventParams], None]) -> None: ...

Remarks

The event is fired for informational and logging purposes only. Used to track the progress of the connection.

GlobalCharge Config Settings

The class accepts one or more of the following configuration settings. Configuration settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the class, access to these internal properties is provided through the config method.

GlobalCharge Config Settings

CardPresent:   Overrides merchant settings to perform a card present or card not present transaction.

This setting may be used when processing keyed transactions in the Retail or Restaurant markets. The valid values are:

0Do not send CardPresent indicator (default)
1Card present
2Card not present.

If a Retail or Restaurant keyed transaction is submitted and CardPresent is set to 0, the Global Transport Gateway defaults the value to Card Present. If a MOTO or eCommerce transaction is submitted and CardPresent is set to 0, the Global Transport Gateway defaults to Card Not Present.

CardVerify:   Whether the transaction type is CardVerify.

Whether the transaction type is CardVerify. To use CardVerify transaction type when calling avs_only set this configuration setting to True.

By default this is set to False.

ContactOnly:   Indicates if the POS device is only able to accept chip inserted EMV transactions.

Required if the point of sale is EMV capable. Valid values are:

TrueDevice is only capable of accepting chip inserted EMV transactions.
FalseDevice is capable of accepting contactless EMV transactions. (default)
DuplicateChecking:   Enables or disables duplicate transaction checking.

Set to "On" (default) to enable duplicate checking, and "Off" to disable it. When duplicate checking is enabled, the Global Payments server will decline duplicate transactions.

EMVCapable:   Indicates whether the Point of Sale is EMV enabled.

This configuration setting is required for transactions using EMV cards. Submit a value of True for an EMV transaction. Default value is False.

Note: This must be set to True even for swiped or keyed fallback transactions using EMV cards.

EMVData:   The EMV data returned from a Pin Pad after reading an EMV card.

This configuration setting takes the entire TLV (tag-length-value) EMV data received from a Pin Pad after reading an EMV card.

EMVEntryDataSource:   The EMV Data Entry Source (DES).

This configuration setting indicates how the values for the payment information were obtained.

Valid values are:

Value Device Capability Comments
0 EMV Valid for EMV chip card transactions.
1 EMV Contactless Valid for EMV contactless transactions.
2 EMV Kiosk Valid for EMV chip card transactions performed in a kiosk environment and should only be submitted with a Transaction Type of Sale.
3 EMV Kiosk Contactless Valid for EMV contactless transactions performed in a kiosk environment and should only be submitted with a Transaction Type of Sale.
4 EMV Swipe Valid when the original EMV chip card or EMV contactless transactions could not be completed, requiring a fallback to magnetic card swipe.
5 EMV Manual Valid when the original EMV chip card or EMV contactless transactions could not be completed, requiring a fallback to manually keyed.

Note: For swipe and manual entry fallback transactions (EMV Swipe and EMV Manual) the EMVCapable configuration setting must be set to True and PINCapable and ContactOnly configuration settings must match the capabilities of your point of sale.

EMVOnlineKSN:   Clear-text Key Sequence Number for EMV Online PIN transactions.

This field is used along with EMVOnlinePIN to perform EMV online PIN transactions. The value of this property must be retrieved from a certified PIN pad device. This property is only valid for Card Present transactions. This value must be 16 characters in length.

EMVOnlinePIN:   DUKPT DES encrypted PIN block for EMV Online PIN transactions.

This field is used along with EMVOnlineKSN to perform EMV online PIN transactions. The value of this property must be retrieved from a certified PIN pad device. This property is only valid for Card Present transactions. This value must be 16 characters in length.

PINCapable:   Indicates if the POS device is capable of accepting PINs.

Required if the point of sale is EMV capable. Valid values are:

TrueDevice is capable of accepting PINs.
FalseDevice is not capable of accepting PINs. (default)
PNRef:   Uniquely identifies the transaction in the Global Transport Gateway.

This value should be stored by the POS to enable the processing of subsequent transactions. For instance, Capture, Void, Refund, TipAdjustment, etc.

RawRequest:   Returns the request sent to the server for debugging purposes.

After an operation this setting may be queried to return the request as it was sent to the server. This is useful for debugging purposes.

RawResponse:   Returns the response received from the server for debugging purposes.

After an operation this setting may be queried to return the response as it was received from the server. This is useful for debugging purposes.

ResponseEMVData:   The response EMV data.

This configuration setting contains the EMV Data in TLV (tag-length-value) format. This field will only be populated if an EMV transaction was performed and EMV Data was received in the response.

TCPClient Config Settings

ConnectionTimeout:   Sets a separate timeout value for establishing a connection.

When set, this configuration setting allows you to specify a different timeout value for establishing a connection. Otherwise, the class will use timeout for establishing a connection and transmitting/receiving data.

FirewallAutoDetect:   Tells the class whether or not to automatically detect and use firewall system settings, if available.

This configuration setting is provided for use by classs that do not directly expose Firewall properties.

FirewallHost:   Name or IP address of firewall (optional).

If a FirewallHost is given, requested connections will be authenticated through the specified firewall when connecting.

If the FirewallHost setting is set to a Domain Name, a DNS request is initiated. Upon successful termination of the request, the FirewallHost setting is set to the corresponding address. If the search is not successful, an error is returned.

Note: This setting is provided for use by classs that do not directly expose Firewall properties.

FirewallPassword:   Password to be used if authentication is to be used when connecting through the firewall.

If FirewallHost is specified, the FirewallUser and FirewallPassword settings are used to connect and authenticate to the given firewall. If the authentication fails, the class fails with an error.

Note: This setting is provided for use by classs that do not directly expose Firewall properties.

FirewallPort:   The TCP port for the FirewallHost;.

The FirewallPort is set automatically when FirewallType is set to a valid value.

Note: This configuration setting is provided for use by classs that do not directly expose Firewall properties.

FirewallType:   Determines the type of firewall to connect through.

The appropriate values are as follows:

0No firewall (default setting).
1Connect through a tunneling proxy. FirewallPort is set to 80.
2Connect through a SOCKS4 Proxy. FirewallPort is set to 1080.
3Connect through a SOCKS5 Proxy. FirewallPort is set to 1080.
10Connect through a SOCKS4A Proxy. FirewallPort is set to 1080.

Note: This setting is provided for use by classs that do not directly expose Firewall properties.

FirewallUser:   A user name if authentication is to be used connecting through a firewall.

If the FirewallHost is specified, the FirewallUser and FirewallPassword settings are used to connect and authenticate to the Firewall. If the authentication fails, the class fails with an error.

Note: This setting is provided for use by classs that do not directly expose Firewall properties.

KeepAliveInterval:   The retry interval, in milliseconds, to be used when a TCP keep-alive packet is sent and no response is received.

When set, TCPKeepAlive will automatically be set to True. A TCP keep-alive packet will be sent after a period of inactivity as defined by KeepAliveTime. If no acknowledgment is received from the remote host, the keep-alive packet will be sent again. This configuration setting specifies the interval at which the successive keep-alive packets are sent in milliseconds. This system default if this value is not specified here is 1 second.

Note: This value is not applicable in macOS.

KeepAliveTime:   The inactivity time in milliseconds before a TCP keep-alive packet is sent.

When set, TCPKeepAlive will automatically be set to True. By default, the operating system will determine the time a connection is idle before a Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) keep-alive packet is sent. This system default if this value is not specified here is 2 hours. In many cases, a shorter interval is more useful. Set this value to the desired interval in milliseconds.

Linger:   When set to True, connections are terminated gracefully.

This property controls how a connection is closed. The default is True.

In the case that Linger is True (default), two scenarios determine how long the connection will linger. In the first, if LingerTime is 0 (default), the system will attempt to send pending data for a connection until the default IP timeout expires.

In the second scenario, if LingerTime is a positive value, the system will attempt to send pending data until the specified LingerTime is reached. If this attempt fails, then the system will reset the connection.

The default behavior (which is also the default mode for stream sockets) might result in a long delay in closing the connection. Although the class returns control immediately, the system could hold system resources until all pending data are sent (even after your application closes).

Setting this property to False forces an immediate disconnection. If you know that the other side has received all the data you sent (e.g., by a client acknowledgment), setting this property to False might be the appropriate course of action.

LingerTime:   Time in seconds to have the connection linger.

LingerTime is the time, in seconds, the socket connection will linger. This value is 0 by default, which means it will use the default IP timeout.

LocalHost:   The name of the local host through which connections are initiated or accepted.

The local_host setting contains the name of the local host as obtained by the gethostname() system call, or if the user has assigned an IP address, the value of that address.

In multi-homed hosts (machines with more than one IP interface) setting LocalHost to the value of an interface will make the class initiate connections (or accept in the case of server classs) only through that interface.

If the class is connected, the local_host setting shows the IP address of the interface through which the connection is made in internet dotted format (aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd). In most cases, this is the address of the local host, except for multi-homed hosts (machines with more than one IP interface).

LocalPort:   The port in the local host where the class binds.

This must be set before a connection is attempted. It instructs the class to bind to a specific port (or communication endpoint) in the local machine.

Setting this to 0 (default) enables the system to choose a port at random. The chosen port will be shown by local_port after the connection is established.

local_port cannot be changed once a connection is made. Any attempt to set this when a connection is active will generate an error.

This; setting is useful when trying to connect to services that require a trusted port in the client side. An example is the remote shell (rsh) service in UNIX systems.

MaxLineLength:   The maximum amount of data to accumulate when no EOL is found.

MaxLineLength is the size of an internal buffer, which holds received data while waiting for an eol string.

If an eol string is found in the input stream before MaxLineLength bytes are received, the on_data_in event is fired with the EOL parameter set to True, and the buffer is reset.

If no eol is found, and MaxLineLength bytes are accumulated in the buffer, the on_data_in event is fired with the EOL parameter set to False, and the buffer is reset.

The minimum value for MaxLineLength is 256 bytes. The default value is 2048 bytes.

MaxTransferRate:   The transfer rate limit in bytes per second.

This configuration setting can be used to throttle outbound TCP traffic. Set this to the number of bytes to be sent per second. By default, this is not set and there is no limit.

ProxyExceptionsList:   A semicolon separated list of hosts and IPs to bypass when using a proxy.

This configuration setting optionally specifies a semicolon-separated list of hostnames or IP addresses to bypass when a proxy is in use. When requests are made to hosts specified in this property, the proxy will not be used. For instance:

www.google.com;www.nsoftware.com

TCPKeepAlive:   Determines whether or not the keep alive socket option is enabled.

If set to True, the socket's keep-alive option is enabled and keep-alive packets will be sent periodically to maintain the connection. Set KeepAliveTime and KeepAliveInterval to configure the timing of the keep-alive packets.

Note: This value is not applicable in Java.

TcpNoDelay:   Whether or not to delay when sending packets.

When true, the socket will send all data that is ready to send at once. When false, the socket will send smaller buffered packets of data at small intervals. This is known as the Nagle algorithm.

By default, this config is set to false.

UseIPv6:   Whether to use IPv6.

When set to 0 (default), the class will use IPv4 exclusively. When set to 1, the class will use IPv6 exclusively. To instruct the class to prefer IPv6 addresses, but use IPv4 if IPv6 is not supported on the system, this setting should be set to 2. The default value is 0. Possible values are:

0 IPv4 Only
1 IPv6 Only
2 IPv6 with IPv4 fallback

SSL Config Settings

LogSSLPackets:   Controls whether SSL packets are logged when using the internal security API.

When ssl_provider is set to Internal, this setting controls whether SSL packets should be logged. By default, this setting is False, as it is only useful for debugging purposes.

When enabled, SSL packet logs are output using the on_ssl_status event, which will fire each time an SSL packet is sent or received.

Enabling this setting has no effect if ssl_provider is set to Platform.

OpenSSLCADir:   The path to a directory containing CA certificates.

This functionality is available only when the provider is OpenSSL.

The path set by this property should point to a directory containing CA certificates in PEM format. The files each contain one CA certificate. The files are looked up by the CA subject name hash value, which must hence be available. If more than one CA certificate with the same name hash value exist, the extension must be different (e.g. 9d66eef0.0, 9d66eef0.1 etc). OpenSSL recommends to use the c_rehash utility to create the necessary links. Please refer to the OpenSSL man page SSL_CTX_load_verify_locations(3) for details.

OpenSSLCAFile:   Name of the file containing the list of CA's trusted by your application.

This functionality is available only when the provider is OpenSSL.

The file set by this property should contain a list of CA certificates in PEM format. The file can contain several CA certificates identified by

-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----

... (CA certificate in base64 encoding) ...

-----END CERTIFICATE-----

sequences. Before, between, and after the certificates text is allowed which can be used e.g. for descriptions of the certificates. Please refer to the OpenSSL man page SSL_CTX_load_verify_locations(3) for details.

OpenSSLCipherList:   A string that controls the ciphers to be used by SSL.

This functionality is available only when the provider is OpenSSL.

The format of this string is described in the OpenSSL man page ciphers(1) section "CIPHER LIST FORMAT". Please refer to it for details. The default string "DEFAULT" is determined at compile time and is normally equivalent to "ALL:!ADH:RC4+RSA:+SSLv2:@STRENGTH".

OpenSSLPrngSeedData:   The data to seed the pseudo random number generator (PRNG).

This functionality is available only when the provider is OpenSSL.

By default OpenSSL uses the device file "/dev/urandom" to seed the PRNG and setting OpenSSLPrngSeedData is not required. If set, the string specified is used to seed the PRNG.

ReuseSSLSession:   Determines if the SSL session is reused.

If set to true, the class will reuse the context if and only if the following criteria are met:

  • The target host name is the same.
  • The system cache entry has not expired (default timeout is 10 hours).
  • The application process that calls the function is the same.
  • The logon session is the same.
  • The instance of the class is the same.

SSLCACertFilePaths:   The paths to CA certificate files on Unix/Linux.

This setting specifies the paths on disk to CA certificate files on Unix/Linux.

The value is formatted as a list of paths separated by semicolons. The class will check for the existence of each file in the order specified. When a file is found the CA certificates within the file will be loaded and used to determine the validity of server or client certificates.

The default value is:

/etc/ssl/ca-bundle.pem;/etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt;/etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt;/etc/pki/tls/cacert.pem

SSLCACerts:   A newline separated list of CA certificate to use during SSL client authentication.

This setting specifies one or more CA certificates to be included in the request when performing SSL client authentication. Some servers require the entire chain, including CA certificates, to be presented when performing SSL client authentication. The value of this setting is a newline (CrLf) separated list of certificates. For instance:

-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
MIIEKzCCAxOgAwIBAgIRANTET4LIkxdH6P+CFIiHvTowDQYJKoZIhvcNAQELBQAw
...
eWHV5OW1K53o/atv59sOiW5K3crjFhsBOd5Q+cJJnU+SWinPKtANXMht+EDvYY2w
F0I1XhM+pKj7FjDr+XNj
-----END CERTIFICATE-----
\r \n
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
MIIEFjCCAv6gAwIBAgIQetu1SMxpnENAnnOz1P+PtTANBgkqhkiG9w0BAQUFADBp
..
d8q23djXZbVYiIfE9ebr4g3152BlVCHZ2GyPdjhIuLeH21VbT/dyEHHA
-----END CERTIFICATE-----

SSLCheckCRL:   Whether to check the Certificate Revocation List for the server certificate.

This setting specifies whether the class will check the Certificate Revocation List specified by the server certificate. If set to 1 or 2, the class will first obtain the list of CRL URLs from the server certificate's CRL distribution points extension. The class will then make HTTP requests to each CRL endpoint to check the validity of the server's certificate. If the certificate has been revoked or any other issues are found during validation the class fails with an error.

When set to 0 (default) the CRL check will not be performed by the class. When set to 1, it will attempt to perform the CRL check, but will continue without an error if the server's certificate does not support CRL. When set to 2, it will perform the CRL check and will throw an error if CRL is not supported.

This configuration setting is only supported in the Java, C#, and C++ editions. In the C++ edition, it is only supported on Windows operating systems.

SSLCheckOCSP:   Whether to use OCSP to check the status of the server certificate.

This setting specifies whether the class will use OCSP to check the validity of the server certificate. If set to 1 or 2, the class will first obtain the OCSP URL from the server certificate's OCSP extension. The class will then locate the issuing certificate and make an HTTP request to the OCSP endpoint to check the validity of the server's certificate. If the certificate has been revoked or any other issues are found during validation the class fails with an error.

When set to 0 (default) the class will not perform an OCSP check. When set to 1, it will attempt to perform the OCSP check, but will continue without an error if the server's certificate does not support OCSP. When set to 2, it will perform the OCSP check and will throw an error if OCSP is not supported.

This configuration setting is only supported in the Java, C#, and C++ editions. In the C++ edition, it is only supported on Windows operating systems.

SSLCipherStrength:   The minimum cipher strength used for bulk encryption.

This minimum cipher strength largely dependent on the security modules installed on the system. If the cipher strength specified is not supported, an error will be returned when connections are initiated.

Please note that this setting contains the minimum cipher strength requested from the security library. The actual cipher strength used for the connection is shown by the on_ssl_status event.

Use this setting with caution. Requesting a lower cipher strength than necessary could potentially cause serious security vulnerabilities in your application.

When the provider is OpenSSL, SSLCipherStrength is currently not supported. This functionality is instead made available through the OpenSSLCipherList config setting.

SSLEnabledCipherSuites:   The cipher suite to be used in an SSL negotiation.

The enabled cipher suites to be used in SSL negotiation.

By default, the enabled cipher suites will include all available ciphers ("*").

The special value "*" means that the class will pick all of the supported cipher suites. If SSLEnabledCipherSuites is set to any other value, only the specified cipher suites will be considered.

Multiple cipher suites are separated by semicolons.

Example values when ssl_provider is set to Platform: obj.config("SSLEnabledCipherSuites=*"); obj.config("SSLEnabledCipherSuites=CALG_AES_256"); obj.config("SSLEnabledCipherSuites=CALG_AES_256;CALG_3DES"); Possible values when ssl_provider is set to Platform include:

When TLS 1.3 is negotiated (see SSLEnabledProtocols) only the following cipher suites are supported:

  • TLS_AES_256_GCM_SHA384
  • TLS_CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256
  • TLS_AES_128_GCM_SHA256

SSLEnabledCipherSuites is used together with SSLCipherStrength.

SSLEnabledProtocols:   Used to enable/disable the supported security protocols.

Used to enable/disable the supported security protocols.

Not all supported protocols are enabled by default (the value of this setting is 4032). If you want more granular control over the enabled protocols, you can set this property to the binary 'OR' of one or more of the following values:

TLS1.312288 (Hex 3000)
TLS1.23072 (Hex C00) (Default)
TLS1.1768 (Hex 300) (Default)
TLS1 192 (Hex C0) (Default)
SSL3 48 (Hex 30) [Platform Only]
SSL2 12 (Hex 0C) [Platform Only]

SSLEnabledProtocols - TLS 1.3 Notes

By default when TLS 1.3 is enabled the class will use the internal TLS implementation when the ssl_provider is set to Automatic for all editions.

In editions which are designed to run on Windows ssl_provider can be set to Platform to use the platform implementation instead of the internal implementation. When configured in this manner, please note that the platform provider is only supported on Windows 11 / Windows Server 2022 and up. The default internal provider is available on all platforms and is not restricted to any specific OS version.

If set to 1 (Platform provider) please be aware of the following notes:

  • The platform provider is only available on Windows 11 / Windows Server 2022 and up.
  • SSLEnabledCipherSuites and other similar SSL configuration settings are not supported.
  • If SSLEnabledProtocols includes both TLS 1.3 and TLS 1.2 the above restrictions are still applicable even if TLS 1.2 is negotiated. Enabling TLS 1.3 with the platform provider changes the implementation used for all TLS versions.

SSLEnabledProtocols: SSL2 and SSL3 Notes:

SSL 2.0 and 3.0 are not supported by the class when the ssl_provider is set to internal. To use SSL 2.0 or SSL 3.0, the platform security API must have the protocols enabled and ssl_provider needs to be set to platform.

SSLEnableRenegotiation:   Whether the renegotiation_info SSL extension is supported.

This setting specifies whether the renegotiation_info SSL extension will be used in the request when using the internal security API. This setting is True by default, but can be set to False to disable the extension.

This setting is only applicable when ssl_provider is set to Internal.

SSLIncludeCertChain:   Whether the entire certificate chain is included in the SSLServerAuthentication event.

This setting specifies whether the Encoded parameter of the on_ssl_server_authentication event contains the full certificate chain. By default this value is False and only the leaf certificate will be present in the Encoded parameter of the on_ssl_server_authentication event.

If set to True all certificates returned by the server will be present in the Encoded parameter of the on_ssl_server_authentication event. This includes the leaf certificate, any intermediate certificate, and the root certificate.

SSLKeyLogFile:   The location of a file where per-session secrets are written for debugging purposes.

This setting optionally specifies the full path to a file on disk where per-session secrets are stored for debugging purposes.

When set, the class will save the session secrets in the same format as the SSLKEYLOGFILE environment variable functionality used by most major browsers and tools such as Chrome, Firefox, and cURL. This file can then be used in tools such as Wireshark to decrypt TLS traffice for debugging purposes. When writing to this file the class will only append, it will not overwrite previous values.

Note: This setting is only applicable when ssl_provider is set to Internal.

SSLNegotiatedCipher:   Returns the negotiated cipher suite.

Returns the cipher suite negotiated during the SSL handshake.

Note: For server components (e.g. TCPServer) this is a per-connection setting accessed by passing the ConnectionId. For example: server.Config("SSLNegotiatedCipher[connId]");

SSLNegotiatedCipherStrength:   Returns the negotiated cipher suite strength.

Returns the strength of the cipher suite negotiated during the SSL handshake.

Note: For server components (e.g.TCPServer) this is a per-connection setting accessed by passing the ConnectionId. For example: server.Config("SSLNegotiatedCipherStrength[connId]");

SSLNegotiatedCipherSuite:   Returns the negotiated cipher suite.

Returns the cipher suite negotiated during the SSL handshake represented as a single string.

Note: For server components (e.g. TCPServer) this is a per-connection setting accessed by passing the ConnectionId. For example: server.Config("SSLNegotiatedCipherSuite[connId]");

SSLNegotiatedKeyExchange:   Returns the negotiated key exchange algorithm.

Returns the key exchange algorithm negotiated during the SSL handshake.

Note: For server components (e.g. TCPServer) this is a per-connection setting accessed by passing the ConnectionId. For example: server.Config("SSLNegotiatedKeyExchange[connId]");

SSLNegotiatedKeyExchangeStrength:   Returns the negotiated key exchange algorithm strength.

Returns the strenghth of the key exchange algorithm negotiated during the SSL handshake.

Note: For server components (e.g. TCPServer) this is a per-connection setting accessed by passing the ConnectionId. For example: server.Config("SSLNegotiatedKeyExchangeStrength[connId]");

SSLNegotiatedVersion:   Returns the negotiated protocol version.

Returns the protocol version negotiated during the SSL handshake.

Note: For server components (e.g. TCPServer) this is a per-connection setting accessed by passing the ConnectionId. For example: server.Config("SSLNegotiatedVersion[connId]");

SSLSecurityFlags:   Flags that control certificate verification.

The following flags are defined (specified in hexadecimal notation). They can be or-ed together to exclude multiple conditions:

0x00000001Ignore time validity status of certificate.
0x00000002Ignore time validity status of CTL.
0x00000004Ignore non-nested certificate times.
0x00000010Allow unknown Certificate Authority.
0x00000020Ignore wrong certificate usage.
0x00000100Ignore unknown certificate revocation status.
0x00000200Ignore unknown CTL signer revocation status.
0x00000400Ignore unknown Certificate Authority revocation status.
0x00000800Ignore unknown Root revocation status.
0x00008000Allow test Root certificate.
0x00004000Trust test Root certificate.
0x80000000Ignore non-matching CN (certificate CN not-matching server name).

This functionality is currently not available when the provider is OpenSSL.

SSLServerCACerts:   A newline separated list of CA certificate to use during SSL server certificate validation.

This setting optionally specifies one or more CA certificates to be used when verifying the server certificate. When verifying the server's certificate the certificates trusted by the system will be used as part of the verification process. If the server's CA certificates are not installed to the trusted system store, they may be specified here so they are included when performing the verification process. This setting should only be set if the server's CA certificates are not already trusted on the system and cannot be installed to the trusted system store.

The value of this setting is a newline (CrLf) separated list of certificates. For instance:

-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
MIIEKzCCAxOgAwIBAgIRANTET4LIkxdH6P+CFIiHvTowDQYJKoZIhvcNAQELBQAw

-----END CERTIFICATE-----

TLS12SignatureAlgorithms:   Defines the allowed TLS 1.2 signature algorithms when SSLProvider is set to Internal.

This setting specifies the allowed server certificate signature algorithms when ssl_provider is set to Internal and SSLEnabledProtocols is set to allow TLS 1.2.

When specified the class will verify that the server certificate signature algorithm is among the values specified in this setting. If the server certificate signature algorithm is unsupported the class fails with an error.

The format of this value is a comma separated list of hash-signature combinations. For instance: component.SSLProvider = TCPClientSSLProviders.sslpInternal; component.Config("SSLEnabledProtocols=3072"); //TLS 1.2 component.Config("TLS12SignatureAlgorithms=sha256-rsa,sha256-dsa,sha1-rsa,sha1-dsa"); The default value for this setting is sha512-ecdsa,sha512-rsa,sha512-dsa,sha384-ecdsa,sha384-rsa,sha384-dsa,sha256-ecdsa,sha256-rsa,sha256-dsa,sha224-ecdsa,sha224-rsa,sha224-dsa,sha1-ecdsa,sha1-rsa,sha1-dsa.

In order to not restrict the server's certificate signature algorithm, specify an empty string as the value for this setting, which will cause the signature_algorithms TLS 1.2 extension to not be sent.

TLS12SupportedGroups:   The supported groups for ECC.

This setting specifies a comma separated list of named groups used in TLS 1.2 for ECC.

The default value is ecdhe_secp256r1,ecdhe_secp384r1,ecdhe_secp521r1.

When using TLS 1.2 and ssl_provider is set to Internal, the values refer to the supported groups for ECC. The following values are supported:

  • "ecdhe_secp256r1" (default)
  • "ecdhe_secp384r1" (default)
  • "ecdhe_secp521r1" (default)

TLS13KeyShareGroups:   The groups for which to pregenerate key shares.

This setting specifies a comma separated list of named groups used in TLS 1.3 for key exchange. The groups specified here will have key share data pregenerated locally before establishing a connection. This can prevent an additional round trip during the handshake if the group is supported by the server.

The default value is set to balance common supported groups and the computational resources required to generate key shares. As a result only some groups are included by default in this setting.

Note: All supported groups can always be used during the handshake even if not listed here, but if a group is used which is not present in this list it will incur an additional round trip and time to generate the key share for that group.

In most cases this setting does not need to be modified. This should only be modified if there is a specific reason to do so.

The default value is ecdhe_x25519,ecdhe_secp256r1,ecdhe_secp384r1,ffdhe_2048,ffdhe_3072

The values are ordered from most preferred to least preferred. The following values are supported:

  • "ecdhe_x25519" (default)
  • "ecdhe_x448"
  • "ecdhe_secp256r1" (default)
  • "ecdhe_secp384r1" (default)
  • "ecdhe_secp521r1"
  • "ffdhe_2048" (default)
  • "ffdhe_3072" (default)
  • "ffdhe_4096"
  • "ffdhe_6144"
  • "ffdhe_8192"

TLS13SignatureAlgorithms:   The allowed certificate signature algorithms.

This setting holds a comma separated list of allowed signature algorithms. Possible values are:

  • "ed25519" (default)
  • "ed448" (default)
  • "ecdsa_secp256r1_sha256" (default)
  • "ecdsa_secp384r1_sha384" (default)
  • "ecdsa_secp521r1_sha512" (default)
  • "rsa_pkcs1_sha256" (default)
  • "rsa_pkcs1_sha384" (default)
  • "rsa_pkcs1_sha512" (default)
  • "rsa_pss_sha256" (default)
  • "rsa_pss_sha384" (default)
  • "rsa_pss_sha512" (default)
The default value is rsa_pss_sha256,rsa_pss_sha384,rsa_pss_sha512,rsa_pkcs1_sha256,rsa_pkcs1_sha384,rsa_pkcs1_sha512,ecdsa_secp256r1_sha256,ecdsa_secp384r1_sha384,ecdsa_secp521r1_sha512,ed25519,ed448. This setting is only applicable when SSLEnabledProtocols includes TLS 1.3.
TLS13SupportedGroups:   The supported groups for (EC)DHE key exchange.

This setting specifies a comma separated list of named groups used in TLS 1.3 for key exchange. This setting should only be modified if there is a specific reason to do so.

The default value is ecdhe_x25519,ecdhe_x448,ecdhe_secp256r1,ecdhe_secp384r1,ecdhe_secp521r1,ffdhe_2048,ffdhe_3072,ffdhe_4096,ffdhe_6144,ffdhe_8192

The values are ordered from most preferred to least preferred. The following values are supported:

  • "ecdhe_x25519" (default)
  • "ecdhe_x448" (default)
  • "ecdhe_secp256r1" (default)
  • "ecdhe_secp384r1" (default)
  • "ecdhe_secp521r1" (default)
  • "ffdhe_2048" (default)
  • "ffdhe_3072" (default)
  • "ffdhe_4096" (default)
  • "ffdhe_6144" (default)
  • "ffdhe_8192" (default)

Socket Config Settings

AbsoluteTimeout:   Determines whether timeouts are inactivity timeouts or absolute timeouts.

If AbsoluteTimeout is set to True, any method which does not complete within Timeout seconds will be aborted. By default, AbsoluteTimeout is False, and the timeout is an inactivity timeout.

Note: This option is not valid for UDP ports.

FirewallData:   Used to send extra data to the firewall.

When the firewall is a tunneling proxy, use this property to send custom (additional) headers to the firewall (e.g. headers for custom authentication schemes).

InBufferSize:   The size in bytes of the incoming queue of the socket.

This is the size of an internal queue in the TCP/IP stack. You can increase or decrease its size depending on the amount of data that you will be receiving. Increasing the value of the InBufferSize setting can provide significant improvements in performance in some cases.

Some TCP/IP implementations do not support variable buffer sizes. If that is the case, when the class is activated the InBufferSize reverts to its defined size. The same happens if you attempt to make it too large or too small.

OutBufferSize:   The size in bytes of the outgoing queue of the socket.

This is the size of an internal queue in the TCP/IP stack. You can increase or decrease its size depending on the amount of data that you will be sending. Increasing the value of the OutBufferSize setting can provide significant improvements in performance in some cases.

Some TCP/IP implementations do not support variable buffer sizes. If that is the case, when the class is activated the OutBufferSize reverts to its defined size. The same happens if you attempt to make it too large or too small.

Base Config Settings

BuildInfo:   Information about the product's build.

When queried, this setting will return a string containing information about the product's build.

LicenseInfo:   Information about the current license.

When queried, this setting will return a string containing information about the license this instance of a class is using. It will return the following information:

  • Product: The product the license is for.
  • Product Key: The key the license was generated from.
  • License Source: Where the license was found (e.g., RuntimeLicense, License File).
  • License Type: The type of license installed (e.g., Royalty Free, Single Server).
  • Last Valid Build: The last valid build number for which the license will work.
MaskSensitive:   Whether sensitive data is masked in log messages.

In certain circumstances it may be beneficial to mask sensitive data, like passwords, in log messages. Set this to True to mask sensitive data. The default is True.

This setting only works on these classes: AS3Receiver, AS3Sender, Atom, Client(3DS), FTP, FTPServer, IMAP, OFTPClient, SSHClient, SCP, Server(3DS), Sexec, SFTP, SFTPServer, SSHServer, TCPClient, TCPServer.

ProcessIdleEvents:   Whether the class uses its internal event loop to process events when the main thread is idle.

If set to False, the class will not fire internal idle events. Set this to False to use the class in a background thread on Mac OS. By default, this setting is True.

SelectWaitMillis:   The length of time in milliseconds the class will wait when DoEvents is called if there are no events to process.

If there are no events to process when do_events is called, the class will wait for the amount of time specified here before returning. The default value is 20.

UseInternalSecurityAPI:   Whether or not to use the system security libraries or an internal implementation.

When set to False, the class will use the system security libraries by default to perform cryptographic functions where applicable.

Setting this configuration setting to True tells the class to use the internal implementation instead of using the system security libraries.

On Windows, this setting is set to False by default. On Linux/macOS, this setting is set to True by default.

To use the system security libraries for Linux, OpenSSL support must be enabled. For more information on how to enable OpenSSL, please refer to the OpenSSL Notes section.
