Send an Invoice

Releases a draft: assigns its Invoice number (from your prefix and counter in Settings) and makes its url work for the Customer. Transxact does not email it for you here; share the url, or email it from the dashboard. A sent Invoice can’t be edited; void it and make another. The Idempotency-Key header is required: a retry returns the sent Invoice and uses no second number.

Authentication

Your secret key: sk_test_… in Test mode, sk_live_… in Live mode.
