Encrypted object
Encrypted object in the Paycux API: the endpoints, the fields they accept and return, and a working request in three languages.
Overview
The Encrypted object resource is part of the Paycux API. Every field below is returned on every representation of the object, so you can rely on its shape across list, read and write calls.
| Field | Type | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| id | string | Stable identifier, prefixed per resource type. |
| object | string | The resource name, useful when handling webhook payloads. |
| created_at | timestamp | ISO 8601, always UTC. |
| updated_at | timestamp | ISO 8601, always UTC. |
Endpoints
Every endpoint is authenticated with a bearer token and scoped to the environment the key belongs to.
| Method | Path | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| POST | /vault/v1/kv | Create an object |
| GET | /vault/v1/kv/:id | Read an object by ID |
| GET | /vault/v1/kv/name/:name | Read an object by name |
| GET | /vault/v1/kv/:id/metadata | Describe an object |
| GET | /vault/v1/kv/:id/versions | List object versions |
