Overview
Lists the seller's documents, a page at a time. Send the seller's MPL in the PayMe-Merchant-Key header. The seller's invoicing service must be active; otherwise every documents call returns error 703 (HTTP 403).
| Environment |
Example |
Sandbox |
https://sandbox.payme.io/api/documents?limit=5&field=createdAt&sort=desc |
Production |
https://live.payme.io/api/documents?limit=5&field=createdAt&sort=desc |
Each item has the fields of Get a document, except doc_url. To open a document, call Get a document with its doc_id. Other top-level fields, such as paging details, come from the invoicing service as they are.
