}Fetch one transaction
Look up a single transaction by its gateway id — the same record GET /v1/collections/{reference} and GET /v1/payouts/{reference} return, reachable without knowing which of the two it was. Useful for a support tool or a deep link, where you have an id and not its kind.
Returns the canonical, tenant-safe view: status, amounts, currency, corridor, masked destination, timestamps. Raw provider payloads are stripped before it reaches you — they carry provider tokens and unmasked PII, so raw_request and raw_response are removed on every tenant read rather than merely omitted from the docs.
A 404 means “not found FOR THIS TENANT”, indistinguishable from a reference that never existed.

v1={hex HMAC-SHA256} over the ten-field canonical string. Sent alongside X-AptaPay-Key, X-AptaPay-Timestamp and X-AptaPay-Nonce — all four are required. OpenAPI can only model one header per scheme, so the other three are described in the Authentication section above.
Path Parameters
Query Parameters
raw is ADMIN-ONLY and audit-logged. A tenant asking for it gets 403 — raw provider payloads carry tokens and unmasked PII.
raw Response
The transaction.
The single response envelope, used by EVERY endpoint so a consuming app parses one shape everywhere.
200
"OK"
Present on success. Shape varies per endpoint.
Machine-readable error classification. EXACTLY ONE of terminal/retriable/ ambiguous is true. laces_api inferred this from the HTTP status and got it wrong, stranding real money twice (2026-08-15, 2026-08-16). Branch on these booleans, never on the status code:
terminal -> the provider refused. Reverse the debit and tell the user. retriable -> safe to retry with the SAME Idempotency-Key. ambiguous -> the outcome is UNKNOWN. Do NOT reverse. Poll instead.
