Session tokens can be used for multiple requests. Session tokens that are not used for 5 minutes are deleted and a new session will have to be requested. Multiple active sessions for the same user are allowed. DO NOT CALL THIS METHOD FROM A BROWSER. This is to be called from a secure site connected to PaywayWS. User credentials for the development, testing, and live systems will be provided by Payway for integration and setup. The Payway_Admin web application is used by merchants to manage users and credentials. |
