Save Data
Add data to a merchant application through our API.
This guide shows how to use the Application Boarding API resource to prefill data requested in a merchant application. For field definitions, see Application Boarding Conventions in Reference and Save Data in our API Reference.
Prerequisites
- Contact Maast to set up your Maast Partner account.
- Follow the steps in Get Your API Credentials to save your vendor sandbox ID and API key.
- See Authentication to format the credentials and generate your API token. (Alternatively, use the credentials as-is to test this endpoint with our 'Try It!' feature.)
- Use the Create Application guide to generate an application and save its application ID (
appid).
Implement
Write a POST request. For the request endpoint, include the application ID (appid) of the application you wish to prefill, placing it between application/ and /data. The resulting endpoint is /platform/application/{appId}/data, where the ID number replaces {appId}.
See the sample code below, where the application ID is 119146:
curl --request POST \
--url https://api-test.maast.com/platform/application/119146/data \
--header 'accept: application/json' \
--header 'authorization: Basic OjllZGVjMjFhMzFjMHh5ejc4OWUzMGEzNDE2YWJjMTIz' \
--header 'content-type: application/json'
In the body of the request, add a data array. Populate the array with sets of key and value data as described in the subsections below. See 'Save Data' Request Conventions for field definitions.
Organization Information
Use the key and value sets in the following sample code to provide basic information on the organization:
{
"data": [
{
"key": "legal_name",
"value": "XYZ Test Business"
},
{
"key": "business_name",
"value": "CompanyXYZ"
},
{
"key": "business_websites",
"value": "https://www.domain.com/"
},
{
"key": "business_email",
"value": "[email protected]"
},
{
"key": "business_phone",
"value": "9999999999"
},
{
"key": "business_address",
"value": {"firm_name": "Test Business Address", "address1": "123 Main St", "address2": "", "city": "San Mateo", "state": "CA", "zip": "94402", "zip4": "1234", "country": "840", "attempted": true, "validated": true}
},
{
"key": "business_type",
"value": "llc"
},
{
"key": "limited_partnership",
"value": "false"
},
{
"key": "trading_status",
"value": "np"
},
{
"key": "tax_id_type",
"value": "ssn"
},
{

Business History
Use the key and value sets in the following sample code to provide business history information:

"key": "business_description",
"value": "Selling to ABC and XYZ clients."

Owner / Officer Information
Include an ownership object to add officer information. The business type (business_type) determines what in this object is required, so it is generally easier to use the Maast portal to provide this information or to determine which information to include in this object. See the sample code below:
{
"data": [
{
"key": "ownership",
"value": {"interestCount": 1, "owners": [{"name": {"first_name": "John","last_name": "Doe"},
"personType": {"owner": true,"control": true,"user": true}, "id":"efgbe295c41611edb32402171867ecb2",

"dob": "1970-01-01", "ssn": "999999999", "passport": "", "passport_expiration_date": "",
"passport_issue_date": "", "dl_number": "999999", "dl_state": "CA",
"dl_expiration_date": "2050-01-01", "dl_issue_date": "2015-01-01", "interestPercent": 0,
"relatedBusinesses": [], "cbExp": "", "legal": false, "legalExp": "", "title": "ceo",
"address": {"firm_name": "", "address1": "123 Main St", "address2": "", "city": "San Mateo",
"state": "CA", "zip": "94538", "zip4": "1234", "country": "840", "attempted": true,

}
}
]
}
About Taking Payments
Use the key and value sets in the following sample code to provide information about the type, quantity, and timing of payments the business takes:
{
"data": [

"key": "processing_history",
"value": "true"
},
{
"key": "business_services_process",

},
{
"key": "business_services_auth_time",
"value": "{1,30,30+}"
},
{
"key": "card_brands",
"value": {"vi":true,"mc":true,"di":false,"am":false,"gp":true}
},
{
"key": "card_volume",
"value": "90000"
},
{
"key": "ach_volume",
"value": "5000"
},
{
"key": "total_volume",
"value": "100000"
},
{
"key": "high_ticket",
"value": "100"
}
]
}

{
"data": [
{
"key": "fulfillment_provider_flag",
"value": "business"
},
{
"key": "fulfillment_delivery_method",
"value": {"digitally":false,"pickup":true,"delivery":false,"Service":true}
},
{
"key": "delivery_confirmation",
"value": "true"
},
{
"key": "fulfillment_name",
"value": "John Doe Fulfillment Center"
},
"key": "fulfillment_contact",
"value": "Doe Fulfillment Contact"
},
{
"key": "fulfillment_email",
"value": "[email protected]"
},
{
"key": "fulfillment_phone",
"value": "9999999999"
},
{
"key": "fulfillment_address",
"value": {"firm_name": "Test Fulfillment Center", "address1": "123 Main St", "address2": "Unit 1", "city": "San Mateo", "state": "CA", "zip": "94402", "zip4": "1234", "country": "840", "attempted": true, "validated": true}
},
{
"key": "fulfillment_process_flag",
"value": "true"
}
]
}

Check the code field in the request response: 0 confirms that you have successfully saved data to the application. If the value is something other than 0, check Platform API Response Codes in Reference. See Application Boarding Conventions in Reference and Save Data in our API Reference for field definitions.
