Sign the payload​

payload is the part shown below within Parts sample.

{
       "webCheckoutDetails": {
       .
       .
       .
       "scopes": ["name","email","phoneNumber","billingAddress"] 
}

You must secure the payload using a signature. The payload does not include a timestamp so you can re-use the signature as long as the payload does not change.

There are two ways to generate signature.

  1. Generate a signature using the helper function provided in the Amazon Pay SDKs: Integration Guide - Sign the payload
  2. Build the signature manually: Integration Guide - Signing requests
