5.4. Authorize Print

Modified on Tue, May 25, 2021 at 9:12 AM

Each vendor is responsible to manage sessions and shopping carts on their own. However, once the end-user attempts to checkout, the vendor's system will need to call the JSON method authorizePrint to authorize the prints that were purchased by the user. In addition, this method creates a Legato order record needed by the viewer to deliver music to the user. The Legato order ID of the newly-created order is returned so that it can be supplied to future calls of authorizePrint, thus linking prints to the same order. (Note that all music on an order with the same music ID are combined in the Legato system.)
