Perl Stripe: Create a PII Token

Back to Index

Creates a single use token that wraps the details of personally identifiable information (PII). This token can be used in place of a personal_id_number in the Account Update API method. These tokens can only be used once.

Documentation: https://stripe.com/docs/api/curl#create_pii_token

CURL Command

curl https://api.stripe.com/v1/tokens \
   -u STRIPE_SECRET_KEY: \
   -d pii[personal_id_number]=000000000 \
   -X POST

Perl Example

use chilkat();

$rest = chilkat::CkRest->new();

#  URL: https://api.stripe.com/v1/tokens
$bTls = 1;
$port = 443;
$bAutoReconnect = 1;
$success = $rest->Connect("api.stripe.com",$port,$bTls,$bAutoReconnect);
if ($success != 1) {
    print "ConnectFailReason: " . $rest->get_ConnectFailReason() . "\r\n";
    print $rest->lastErrorText() . "\r\n";
    exit;
}

$rest->SetAuthBasic("STRIPE_SECRET_KEY","");

$rest->AddQueryParam("pii[personal_id_number]","000000000");

$strResponseBody = $rest->fullRequestFormUrlEncoded("POST","/v1/tokens");
if ($rest->get_LastMethodSuccess() != 1) {
    print $rest->lastErrorText() . "\r\n";
    exit;
}

$jsonResponse = chilkat::CkJsonObject->new();
$jsonResponse->Load($strResponseBody);

$id = $jsonResponse->stringOf("id");
$object = $jsonResponse->stringOf("object");
$client_ip = $jsonResponse->IsNullOf("client_ip");
$created = $jsonResponse->IntOf("created");
$livemode = $jsonResponse->BoolOf("livemode");
$type = $jsonResponse->stringOf("type");
$used = $jsonResponse->BoolOf("used");
