Custom Identifiers

Custom identifiers are texts (strings) that can be used to construct routing rules. For instance, you can use custom identifiers to route transactions through Razorpay when you pass a custom text xyz and to PayU when you pass the text abc. How to send the values for custom identifier?
There are three field defined for custom identifiers:
  1. optimizer_identifier_1
  2. optimizer_identifier_2
  3. optimizer_identifier_3
These fields can be sent within the notes object of the payment or order request. If this field is sent into the order request, it will be copied in the payment requests corresponding to the order id. This is done to ensure that you have both the options available. We recommend adding these fields in the order request since its more secure.

Sample Code

Given below are sample codes which show how the notes parameter should be passed in the Orders API and the Standard Checkout code:
