IPN vs actions.payment.execute() result

[daslicht]

Hello,

is it safe to ship a product once the actions.payment.execute().then(function() {...} in the onAutorize callback has been called or is it a 'better' idea to wait for the Instant Payment Notification ?

Ok instead of opening another tread,

how about the serverside intergration :

I it safe to ship a product when the transaction complets successfully ?

It it as trustworthy as the IPN callback ?

Finally I got an aswer to my question via the Ticket System :

The "approved" state just means the buyer logged into their account and approved the payment.  You still need to execute the payment request, which once you do check the "state" shown in the "related_resources" section and it should say "completed", which indicates the transaction amount has been captured.  The "id" shown below is the transaction identifier.

 

    "related_resources": [
                {
                    "sale": {
                        "id": "6CP443382P136134L",
                        "state": "completed",
                        "amount": {
                            "total": "7.47",
                            "currency": "USD",
 

Hope that helps someone else and saves time waiting for an answer....
