What is this?

Payments capture/refund via procs in transactions with idempotency keys stored in SQL.

Why should you care?

ShopNest must survive client retries without double capture.

See it live — copy this example

Use a .NET console or API project with SQL Server LocalDB. Run dotnet run after pasting.

cmd.CommandText = "usp_Payments_Capture";
cmd.Parameters.Add("@IdempotencyKey", SqlDbType.UniqueIdentifier).Value = key;
cmd.Parameters.Add("@OrderId", SqlDbType.Int).Value = orderId;
await cmd.ExecuteNonQueryAsync(ct);

What happened?

  • Idempotency unique index.
  • Proc no-ops on replay.
  • Log outcomes.

Practice next

  1. Idempotency table/constraint.
  2. Capture proc.
  3. Retry same key.
  4. Refund path.
  5. Timeout then status poll.

Remember

Idempotent capture. Proc + unique key. Safe retries.

ShopNest capture idempotency

Double POST captures once.

Outcome: Finance trusts payment rows.
