Description

:memo: Feature Description

  • In Hyperswitch, we retrieve transaction status in two ways:
  1. Using transaction_id which is generated by Connectors
  2. Using our reference_id which can be passed to Connectors during payment creation
  • If supported, the request for retrieving Payments and Refunds should use the Hyperswitch's reference_id. This would assist in obtaining the payment/refund status in the event we failed to get it due to timeout, connection failure, etc.

:hammer: Possible Implementation

  • If the connector supports retrieving payments and refunds using our reference_id i.e connector_request_reference_id , we should utilize this functionality instead of exclusively relying on the connector_transaction_id.
  • You can check this PR for further reference https://github.com/juspay/hyperswitch/pull/2052 :bookmark: Note: All the changes needed should be contained within hyperswitch/crates/router/src/connector/

Research direction
Study the reference PR #2052 to understand how other connectors implement reference id based status retrieval. Then examine the Iatapay connector files under crates/router/src/connector/ to identify where transaction id is currently used and modify the code to use connector request reference id when available, falling back to transaction id if needed. Ensure all changes are confined to the connector directory as per the issue instructions.
